Worth every penny, great OEM-quality audio solution.
Very happy with this buy. This is a high quality OEM-type audio solution for older cars as advertised. Because it is confined by appearance and there aren’t myriad buttons available, it takes time to learn all the functions through the knobs. But once I had a grip on the many functions it’s become easier to jump between audio sources like satellite, aux, iPhone, etc. sound quality is excellent for both audio and Bluetooth. It is not an exaggeration to say that Bluetooth call audio quality is better on this system than in my new Dodge Charger.Installation was no more difficult than any other aftermarket audio system. The adjustability of the knob stalks is a lifesaver. The knobs provided are heavy solid metal castings with great chrome plating—very high quality. Packaging was also expensive and well done. This is definitely a higher-end solution for picky car fanatics. Price was high but I’d definitely do it again.

A good looking product
I'll comment further when I can get the damned thing to work.

Installed in 79 Firebird Formula
I didn't need anything horribly fancy for my 79 Firebird. I wanted something that appeared closer to original, but something that I could hear over my 3" exhaust. I have older Pioneer speakers, so they're not the greatest [I'd like better for the front at least], but with this radio, they work just fine. I also didn't want to spend a huge amount of money. So, for the money this stereo works as intended.The features are great. I love being able to connect to Bluetooth or through USB. I have connected my iPhone 11 through both means and it works great. My husband just wanted a radio, but of course... it's my car, so I got something that did a bit more than simply play the radio. =)Overall I would recommend. It was easy to install and set up. Just follow the booklet that comes with the radio and you should be fine. Anyone with any tech skills will find it extremely easy to install and set up. Anyone without tech skills can follow the included booklet and should still have no issues. I've had it installed for a few months and it works perfectly.

Instructions are lacking
Great retro look radio w Bluetooth and USB to replace the original radio with 8track in my 79 camaro berlinetta. It's beautiful. However, the stickers on the unit itself reflected that the radio buttons were on the top vs the bottom --which was upside down!It was a pain to install because of how much had to be taken apart to get to it (remove center console and a majority of the dash in a small space). I had to do a lot of mechanic yoga :) great radio.
