Wow, ATOTO will last for years

Got an email from Gina. Revain doesn't allow me to use Gmail. I bought this device for a long list of reasons. I just finished building my work demo truck. All interior was custom made, woodworking, sound system competition 2 years as I wanted customers to be able to see. So I didn't just want a standard head unit. I'm also a Linux/Android kernel writer, so I've been keeping up with Android headunits for about 3 years. It was the first time I saw a device that met my needs and to my surprise exceeded my expectations based on my knowledge of Kenwood Excelon and high end devices. When I saw the machine it was hundreds of dollars cheaper than it was and if the manufacturer claims weren't exaggerated I should have bought it. This company is innovative and solid, responsive, has features and a beautiful screen. I'm in love. So I realized most people don't go as extreme as I do, but I recommend this for replacing factory family cars in high Spl situations. This device even offers family safety, entertainment, traffic alerts and allows you to easily connect to your car's system. They've got all the practical uses covered, but I feel like this company has gone further for the sake of convenience and support for the owners who use it. Why did I say help? This device with a very simple adapter allows you to receive information from your vehicle while you are driving. It monitors important data that works with a variety of apps that can potentially alert you to an issue that could save you thousands of dollars. Keep an eye on the street. I can't go into detail because it's such a feature. Some of my thoughts come to mind? A single mother has children and does not bother to replace the factory main unit. However, what if she realized that it would both help her change her work path and give her peace of mind? Absolutely. For a competitive 160db+ build like mine, yes it's perfect for your build, can you use a high quality microphone, SPL microphone and install termlab, lotus oscilloscope applications on your main device? Crazy about a geek "me" type contest. My average basshead friend fell in love with the same one, his alpine DSP applications work great on this unit. Car audio, BassHeads, geek, competitive man, family man, this company will be around for a long time. Sorry for the long review, I hope this helps everyone. I'll have a video of my setup soon and bye. On my facebook. his alpine DSP applications work great on this device.
