The Flip Side of Car Stereos

by scott92282 , Jul 16 '01
Pros: Fancy looks and great sound output
Cons: "Muting" and "turning off" from faceplate takes a while
I purchased my KD-LX3 from a friend who was upgrading to an MP3 player. This receiver has exceeded my expectations.

I have a Bose audio system in my car, and with some finagaling, I was able to make the KD-LX3 work. The only thing that changed...

Don't waste your money

by CarieP , May 10 '00
Pros: good stereo
Cons: is still to easy to steal
Don't get me wrong I think that JVC makes a great car stereo, but as far as the disappearing face I don't like. Someone could very easily steal the stereo, hook it up in their car and guess what, they have a complete working stereo.

With...

Two thumbs up

by Seanholio , Jul 12 '00
Pros: No faceplate to take with you, excellent sound, nice features.
Cons: mechanized faceplate may evenually fail, buttons hard to navigate without looking
Like kmic, whose opinion is up for this product, I also bought this with the expectation that I will be adding an MP3 player to my car. It's a work in progress, and based off the route66 link in my profile.

I can't remember all of the good...

This Receiver Has Got Some SMOOTH Moves!

by Jacqlin82 , Feb 20 '01
Pros: colorful display, lots of features, track scan
Cons: with this many motorized parts, they're likely to break after a while.
While I agree that the driver's eyes should be on the road at all times, it is nice to take a break a feast your eyes on this lil' beauty. The bright, multi-color LCD really lights up your entire dash! It's easy to see and operate, even after simply...

Something to OWN!

by kmic , Jan 14 '00
Pros: BBE; Audio Cruise Mode; Volume fluctuation; Line Inputs; Remote Control; Anti-Theft System
Cons: Price
The JVC KD-LX3 is one of the most amazing car CD players that I have ever seen. Its design has spawned a car audio revolution. There are rumors that Sony is even building a new CD player with the face like the one of the KD-LX1 and KD-LX3.

Affordable, Feature Packed Stereo

by dkuatuci , Jan 12 '00
Pros: Lots of Features, durable construction, remote control
Cons: slow in loading the cd
JVC has topped them all with this great head unit at an even better price. In stores, you will usually see this unit for around $350. It puts out a great amount of power to four channels. Has the capability to turn off the amplification for an external...

BIG MISTAKE

by jerrycch3310 , Jan 27 '00
Pros: looks
Cons: cost, features
The Chamleon series from JVC does have a neat feature with it face display, but it is not worth the money. JVC is not known for is performance in car stereo. This system will cost you at least 250, not including install or wire harness, etc. Yes it...

DON'T BUY JVC

by lroose , Apr 25 '01
Pros: Very happy for the first 10 months then it broke.
Cons: JVC doesn't stand behind their products.
The first unit I bought for my wife for Christmas. About a month later somebody cut the convertible trying to get to it. The face plate doesn't really disguise the unit and thieves are not entirely stupid. All they succeeded in doing was messing up the...
