It's a piece of junk!

This radio is complete junk. I bought this and a second pair of speakers when renovating my boat. After installation I was very happy and grateful for the inexpensive stereo system that I was able to fit into my boat. I'm a fisherman and I don't need an expensive Bada$$ system so I was very happy with the price. It seemed to work fine after installation, but within 2 weeks and very little use it seems like the amp in it died. It turns on and searches for Bluetooth stations or devices, but there

Pros
  • Very good price
Cons
  • Negative available

Great Head Unit and Speakers

We installed this head unit and speakers in our 1987 Samurai. We removed the existing clock, cut a bit of a hole in the dash and fitted the head unit. Base plate could not be used because it is too narrow with air ducts under the dash. I had to trim the holes for the old speakers a bit, but there was no problem installing the new speakers. The sound quality is good for this device and the size of the speakers. My only complaint is that it can be difficult to pair BT the first time and the…

  • Dope 🔥
Cons
  • Too Dumb

Don't buy used! - Automotive and vehicle electronics

This item has been tested and found to be in good condition with all parts, the only damage was in the packaging. Well, the box was definitely damaged, but it was also missing a speaker wire, the nuts to attach the stereo and the wires to connect the stereo were cut so short that they were very difficult to connect. After installing with the items I purchased and no power, the stereo turns on for 10 seconds and then turns off. It keeps doing this no matter what ground I use or what power I use.

Pros
  • Excellent overall performance
Cons
  • Long delivery time

Good radio for ten minutes.

Installed this radio on a small sailboat during a complete rewiring. The radio worked well and sounded good. Left the radio on while cleaning and it started turning on and off. Sometimes it stayed on for 20 minutes with no problems, other times it kept turning off and on again. Fixed all wiring and even tried different speakers with no change. I tried turning off the radio with the "reset" button but it didn't help. I started the returns process today but it has been over thirty days since I…

Pros
  • Acceptable
Cons
  • Unsure

Nice addition to my boat

There are many conflicting reviews on this stereo so I was a little nervous about buying it but so far so good. I found it easy to install, just need a 3 inch hole saw for the main unit, a speaker jig and some electrical connections. The sound is decent for a cheap stereo system. In fact, I didn't expect it to sound as good as it is. ordered some baffles to make it a little better. They're coming soon, so it'll be interesting to see if there's a big difference. I had no problem playing music…

Great unit but get an amplifier

I am very satisfied with the quality of the audio system! I bought mine to sit next to me and listen to music while I'm plowing the snow and it's great for that. The sound isn't super cool, it's kind of "tinny" with no real basis, but part of that may be because I just strapped the speakers to the roll cage when they were supposed to be in the box. Over time I plan to purchase several other speakers. Also, I'm sure an amp would help a little. Overall, I'm happy with the quality of the device…

Pros
  • Speaker Specifications - Depth 7.5 x Width 7.5 x Height 3.4 in. Weight 3.3 lbs.
Cons
  • There is nothing here

Terrible reception!

So I had terrible luck with the first radio I got, installed everything and after plugging it in it turned out to be faulty and turned on by itself. The second one I got works fine but I'm furious because I have terrible VHF reception on my boat. I mounted the radio on a 16 foot aluminum boat and attached the antenna to a stud that screwed into the aluminum to use the boat as an antenna. No reception. I've tried 4 different locations and the only place I get reception is when I hold the antenna

  • Media Playback - Bluetooth, USB port, AM/FM radio stations for the latest music/news/sports and more, NOAA Weather Band Tuner. The MGR450B does not have a CD player
Cons

Garbage Product, Garbage Customer Support

The device has an optional BOSS speaker set. Sounded BIG in my driveway. When first started, the head unit failed after 3 hours of use (several buttons stopped working). This is where BOSS will take you, if it's been more than 30 days, they will force you to pay shipping to get an exchange for their defective product. After wasting time with customer service (and promising they would pay shipping, they didn't) I paid $17 to have their product shipped to them and got a replacement. Be aware of…

Pros
  • Inputs - The USB connection gives you the freedom to have an extensive library of audio files at your fingertips. The AUX input is not compatible with the audio output of smartphones and MP3 players
Cons
  • not reliable
