Clarion CZ209
$140.00
Released February, 2009
The Pros:Installation is easy, will go smoothly for first-time installers. CD playback is reliable, seems to work with almost all discs. MP3 playback is great, fills out the compressed sound nicely.
The Cons:Radio reception is fairly poor, has a tough time with weaker signals. Faceplate is a little awkward to attach and detach. IPod control is a bit awkward, takes many steps to find the song you want.
The CZ209 is an in-car A/V receiver which provides up to 200 watts of peak power from Clarion's 2009 lineup. The receiver is designed with a single line display, rotary volume control, and a detachable face for security.
