    Great head unit for $55

    http://www.amazon.com/Clarion-CZ300-...1881655&sr=8-1


    This will be a short term sale.

    This is a lower mid range head unit. Its most outstanding feature is a pass filter for amps, often a feature of high range units.

    This is a steal. The unit itself has a couple shortcomings but overall sounds great.

    Whats up with the speaker connections? Do you have to use RCA style for all of the speakers?

                  I'd stay away from clarion to be honest.

                      I bought a cheap one ($200 CAD onsale for $100 and another $20 off for open box), and I figured "how bad can it be?" Well, it sounds absolutely horrible, skips like crazy, is awkward to use, just all round suck.

                        I've had 2 clarions and been happy with sound/performance. One of them just quit after like 4 years though, no lights or anything, fuse and power good.
