I like the VU meters
cant get the entire FM band

...interesting piece... but you would almost be better off getting a "normal" deck with a good cd section and then rigging up a tube preamp...

Yeah the piece with the VU meters is neat but what if you use external amplification? USELESS.If you're paying this much for an HU you probably are going to match with high end amps.

The Panasonic unit with the VU meters looks kinda cool but wouldn't you think they would want the volume and tuning ***** to be centered in their opening for the product shot [img]graemlins/freak.gif[/img] Maybe it's just the pic but they look off-center.
