[QUOTE="jdavis37, post: 641440, member: 557902"] I'll see what gets turned up over next couple days.. lots of knowledgeable people on here and hopefully somebody will be " in the know ". I put off my car stereo upgrade since this past Spring when my cd player died, waiting primarily for the CD500.. during that time I learned a lot, still learning alot and still compromising within my budget. Pros ( potential ) of CD500: Dash color matching SQ ( could be really good but is unknown ) Simplicity of design Cons ( versus Pio Premier 860MP and or Alpine 9835 ) No Sirius or XM interface ( means an additional receiver mounted somewhere and additional cost ) HU cost about $80 more minimum No parametric eq NOT available for purchase! The last con is a big one... if delayed again, I simply cannot wait and assuming it does appear later and turns oout to be the cat's meow, then I can sell whatever I buy now for a loss and upgrade like a gazillion others do [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif[/IMG] But unless I get info suggesting the unit truly will be arriving SOON, waiting longer is no longer an option! If you only knew how BAD Charlotte NC radio is ( and Ive been listening to radio only since last Spring, you would realize where I am lol Man am I ever tired of Elton John! ) But, hopefully, good info will arrive and maybe it will arrive much sooner than Online said today !!
