Worth the price

It's only been installed a few weeks so I can't comment on durability. But for $60 this is a great device. The receiver itself is worth the price - the speakers are pretty nice, but given the price, it's hard to be too critical. I've replaced some 15 year old Kenworths that had been blown and beaten by the weather and they happened to still sound better than new with the new receiver. Little crap there. But it's really unfair to expect a $60 radio and speaker to sound the same as a $30-$40 speaker. And the included speakers work perfectly. My guess is that the device isn't very waterproof - luckily I already had a waterproof case that safely protected the receiver from the old device. I highly recommend buying one as it doesn't come with it and if the radio is exposed to the elements I have little doubt it will die almost immediately. If it were installed in some sort of closet I suppose it would be fine. The remote control is a nice touch. I thought this was silly at first, but as it turns out, setting up the radio is a lot easier without opening the weatherproof cover.

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • Requires an outlet
