    Great entry level HDRadio for car

    By Chris  Mar 18, 2007 | 3 out of 3 found this JVC KD-HDR1 review helpful

    Pros: multicast HD2 and HD3 FM; MP3 CD,

    Cons: Many wires to install; remote is a waste.

    I bought the HDRadio and was impressed with the ease of use. I did a self install and found that there were two hot wires, and multiple wires for four speakers. Once I over came this, easy to set up. HDRadio on AM is better than expected. HDRadio m...ulticast is better near the transmitter. I live 30 miles out and cannot listen to HD2 and HD3 stations while driving. CDROM is audio, MP3, WMA, compatible. The remote is a waste, in fact I have lost it and .... don't miss it. If you can find this for about $160, worth it. Don't pay for retail for the JVC. Read more Less

    The Price is Right for this HD Unit!

    By Charles  Jun 9, 2007 | 2 out of 2 found this JVC KD-HDR1 review helpful

    Pros: Cost, HD Clarity, Surround Sound Feature

    Cons: Difficult to fine tune (ie: Trebble, bass, mids)

    The fact that JVC is putting out a CD deck that has a built-in tuner for less than $200 is incredible. As of today, it's the way to go to get a cost effective HD unit. I live in Galveston, TX (50 mi. south of Houston) and I get 33 HD stations, ...they are AWESOME! HD reception can go out in some spots, but overall so far the radio is great. The Surround sound feature they've built in is fantastic, it takes your 4 speakers and turns them into a smooth warm sounding masterpiece. The only catch is that it is hard to adjust the individual frequencies of treble, bass, and mids because you have to configure a user modified equalizer setting, there is no easy way to simply manipulate the settings. Overall, you can't complain because for $199.99 or less depending where you buy, you get an HD radio before all your buddies and the sound out of this unit is just fantastic. P.S. It has front, rear, and sub pre-outs, Sirius and XM ready (addl equip neccessary), it can also support and iPod adapter (addl equip neccessary) for direct iPod control. Read more Less
