i know some of you guys think panasonic makes crap or sub par equipment. well i have always liked their decks but i think just about everyone will like this deck.

they are only sold in japan right now so that sucks. i got some friends from thailand that im sure i could get one of them to get one and send it to me. some day i just might have to try it.

some of panasonics hu's dont work when you touch the HU to change the song. I know my friend has one that when u go to pause a song or change the track the screen goes black and the radio turns off.. could just be his but ik of 2 that do this maybe its just bad luck idk

Sinister, I have heard fantastic things about that HU...only problem is that you cannot get the full FM spectrum.

I think the first selection is:88-102, 2nd is:92-106, 3rd is:96-108

you can buy them in the US at audiocubes.com

They are pricey though, about 1000 each.

here is the listing: Audiocubes


they also have some other hard to get headunits as well.

I really like my Panasonic HU but I hate the remote.

ya i probaly could get one for half of that price if they can get them in thailand. i have never seen that happen to panasonic decks and that 95% of the decks i sell.

Did you guys notice you can buy the Denon HU's on that site as well? Really pricey, from about a grand to well over 3 grand

Gives the music a different "sound"

Adds more warmth and less harshness than what you get with digital...
