brand new kenwood face off cd radio delivered next day for 49 quid - am i realistically going to do any better than this?


not really interested in the cheap stuff from kong kong, and theres unknown brand stuff on ebay from the uk for a fiver less, but the kenwood one looks like a new model and no-one else can match the delivery.

so what do all you reckon?


ta.

Looks ok, but I'd spend £5 more and get one that can play MP3s too

cool, ive never ripped cd's before, isnt it easy!

just bought that mp3 kenwood in green display from another dealer on ebay, paid a couple of quid more but the delivery was a couple of quid less, so worked out the same.

hours of ripping and burning awaits!

I've got a rather basic but good quality sony xplod in my transit that the previous owner installed, just does CD and radio. So I'm thinking about changing for something that does MP3 CD's or has an MP3 player input! Dash is fullllllllll of CD's atm

[cagiva gezzer]

make sure you read the instructions to understand how the unit understands the folders and songs on the disc. Saves hassle and head scratching later.

i paid 54.99 delivered, Halfords are selling it for £79.99! fantastic amount of features for the price, and the sound is excellent too.

service was excellent, ordered it thursday am, came friday am.
