they are alright. I had one in my old car, the one before my truck, and i my aunt got it as a birthday present for me. I think she got it for like 80 bucks at target, but it might have been the lower end model. The remote and SD/USB options are really sweet and I'd say get it if that's your price range. Just try Target first cause they might have it for cheaper.

 

heres what u need. sony didnt make that many of them, i believe only a few thousand tops, and its what i got in my truck right now, with a 10 disc cd changer feeding into it. i love thins unit. best preamp power and 52w X 4. good luck finding one lol.

seriously, its the best single din, non dvd playing head unit ive ever seen.Its Competition grade, and the sound settings are almost endless

Sony CDX-M3D1

 

ok sweet yeah ill try target i just wanted somethin that plays mp3 cds and all that good junk lol

 

jeez 10 disc changer!!!!!!! wow lol thats alot of cds

 

If they held MP3's that would be a pretty good archive, lol. I have a 6 disc MP3 and it's a nice bunch of music.

 

if your looking sumthin that will last you. dont buy a vr3 they are not that great of stereos.

 

yep, it can play mp3 cds

 

eh im on a budget plus it has to be better then whats already in my truck,it takes like 2min to start and play a cd so yeah lol

 

oh and does this thing have a clock...never mind it does

 

also am i going to be able to install this without special wiring? and am i going to need something to go under it to take up the space?

 

Don't get that vr3... Don't get that sony... Stick with pioneer, alpine, kenwood... Sony is garbage.

As far as wiring you'll just need the factory to after market wiring harness.. usually like $10-20 and it converts your stock harness to be able to be matched up to an aftermarket stereo.

 

oh ok i think it comes with one not sure,pulse like i said this has got to be better than what i have and its $80 bucks thats my price range lol pulse i dont expect much for $80 anyways

 

I was just about to add... Don't expect more than what you have now dude for $80... Honestly, If I were you... Keep you deck and get a FM Transmitter for your iPod or mp3 player and use that... That's gonna be your best bet... Since you're basically get it for the mp3 feature..

 

actually i want it because it plays mp3-cds thats the main reason i want it and like i said its the right price

 

Don't you have an iPod or mp3 player?... A FM Transmitter will be a lot cheaper and save you time...

 

ive had pioneer, kenwood and i have alpine conponents. My head unit isnt a cheap sony. I agree, sonys lower end crap is no good, espically their speakers. But the head unit i have is something else. i was suprised by it. its better than any headunit ive ever had. I guess at 500 bucks u get quality

 

Sony has never and never will make a quality deck. Alpine, Pioneer, and JVC all make awesome decks. My roommate works for a shop during the summer that does custom EVERYTHING on peoples cars with A LOT of money... Like Darius miles... He only puts the best of the best in peoples cars... Starting with Treo Engineering, Morell some Audiobahn, Zapco... For decks he sells JVCs, Pioneers, Alpines.. A few others, that I can't think of... Never once has he ever told me Sony was good, at any one point in their history of making Car audio... that's why you can buy it at circuit city.

 

actually im kinda considering this one instead.

That's better than that vr3 thing... If this one ***** on you, you can at least take it back and don't have to worry about shipping.
