A really worthwhile purchase

(Use gestöpselte to the AUX terminal devices via radio or play mp3 forfeited without compensation for the part) After I finally sound and lack of possibilities of original Sony radios in my Focus MK2 had had enough, I have to look for a made in terms of price / performance and functionality worthwhile Radio.

On a tip from "my" workshop back I ended up at Pioneer and there came across this chic part. Immediately ordered Adapter and co delivered quickly and reliably as usual both from Amazon as well as the other traders (at the price ...), including things like CAN Bus. As with all the stuff in "my" workshop (which have the ... now allowed by the Recommendation who install it, instead of that I look at my ten thumbs contort while) and then picked up the car again after a short time.

What can I say: Wow. What the Pioneer brings out the original boxes, is stunning. Punchy bass, crisp highs, powerful sound ... for the first time made loud (he) it music listening in Focus fun. Music playback of all media available to me (and even some loud radio from so that I do not even own). A delight in 4 +. 2

Very well liked me also, that the system can be operated largely intuitive. Only a few adjustment points required to look at the manual (which nevertheless included in times of smartphones and tablets on CD, as someone remarked already whining ... so what ... on the computer draw data cable ran short, postpone's Tablet and completed the fish is cleaned). Praiseworthy.

Everything else was already written so many that I do not want to repeat mandatory. Should not be boring. Therefore, we now come straight to the moaning of my hand.

A few minor criticisms I have, because it found, but should not drag down the overall picture and the assessment:

- The speakerphone sounds (although they from Parrot is ...), according to my interlocutors in comparison to the originals by Ford something tinny. It filters the background / road noise not quite as clean. But to pace 140 I was well understood, after which it was charming with "You sound like R2D2 when making calls in a preserve on the highway." described.
- There is no way to adjust the volume without fault of their own the actual speed and the associated noises. Or I have this setting option is not found. Can also be ...
- The dimmer. Yes, I know ... was already mentioned once or twenty times. But that's why. Because the dimmer does not know what dimmers normally do: Dim. At least not to an extent which has rightly earned him the title. And also my home and extensive search for tricks, more shut down the brightness was unsuccessful.

All in all it remains nevertheless and deservedly at full 5/5 stars. Because apart from the little things, which I can live at least, everything is right at the radio. And therefore: Yet another strong buy recommendation.

PS If anyone knows a Strong dimmer Hope glimmer: Please always liked her so. Thanks.
