[QUOTE="prochobo, post: 1958054, member: 567127"] I've finally got this HU after weeks of waiting. It's a **** good upgrade from my old Pioneer DEH-2400F! The menus aren't half as complicated as people say, they're pretty straight forward and easy to learn (for me at least). There are 3 lines of configurable text display or you can choose which screen you want (5 options). I bought this unit for the following reasons: It's an eXcelon unit which are supposed to be good, 5v preouts, and USB input. I thought that my 30gb external 2.5" hard drive would work, but IT DOESN'T!! Pissed me off so badly! I think that the HU can't give enough juice to the drive, all it does is sit there and click, but on my computer it works fine. I'm now using a 1gb USB flash drive and it works very well. You can skip from folder to folder, you don't have to scroll through each and every song. It reads the drive very fast and switches tracks instantly. Sound quality is very good (to me at least, keep in mind I upgraded from the old Pioneer). There's a HPF and a LPF, but no EQ. You've got subwoofer volume, bass boost, fade, balance, etc. There's also the G-analyzer which I won't even bother to mess with, but it's there. I wish that there was a volt meter on this deck though [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif[/IMG] All in all, it seems to be a very solid deck, the menus are great, screen looks awesome, there are tons of features and little tweaks, so for now, I'm happy. Some pics are below, some of em are shaky and my camera is not forgiving.
