%) VISIT AMAZON.COM'S PAGE | Editorial Reviews : Car stereos don't get any cooler than this Sony in-dash CD/MP3 player. It can play MP3 files recorded onto CD-R and CD-RW discs and it's XM(TM) Satellite Radio ready, so you'll have up to 100 radio stations at your command. And thanks to 52 watts x 4 of peak power, 2 sets of pre-amp outputs, and D-Bass(TM) sound enhancement, you'll wonder why you waited so long to upgrade your car audio system.
Buyer Reviews : I chose to get this nicely priced car MP3 player mainly because of the MP3 capability and the SONY brand.
ID3: The unit can read ID3 tags embedded in the MP3 songs, but only ID3 V1 not the ID3 V2, which can contain more information. And while it disply the tag/album/track, it will scroll the whole name once and then stop scrolling, displaying the first 8 characters, which I don't like.
Recognize Disc: To play a mp3 disc, it takes about 10 seconds to read the contents, for a disc contains 680MB and around 100 files. After that, you never notice any waiting to switch between sounds. The manual said you can't have the file tree for more than 8 levels, which I think is more than enough. And the more levels you have, the more startup time. And I don't think the player can memorized the disc it reads before, so every you insert a disc, it take the same amount of time to recognize it.
MP3 bitrate: All my songs are compressed using lame, with 192KB+ VBR (sometimes, 320KB). This unit has not problem at all read and play them. And while it plays MP3, I didn't notice and skip even if I shake the unit hard. :)
Connectors: On the back end of the player, you will find iso socket, antenna connector, 2 sets of RCA connector for external amplifier (Front and Rear). 1 set of RCA for the audio input. And a bus terminal.
Sound Quality: I didn't compare this unit with others. The manual said it rated 90dB for CD audio, which relatively low in its class.
Temperature: I tried the unit in a open environment (not in the car) for 8 hours, then it becomes something like 70F.
