Price to performance - this receiver is pretty darned good. No complaints about audio quality - I love the turn-on volume memory and tone controls which remember presets for each audio source (CD, radio, and aux). However - it seems a trivial matter to have added one wire and the circuitry to dim that incredibly bright display. from Crutchfield.com This is a great head unit and I am happy with it. It has many features as the more expensive units do, which is impressive. But it's not perfect, so here is what you may run into:My Saturn ION has standard speakers with a stock CD player. The speakers would vibrate when there was too much bass(one-way speakers), so it was time for an improvement. from Crutchfield.com This receiver is solid. The controls are user-friendly, the iPlug is a very nice feature, and the comprehensive nature of this simple player make it a great purchase for anyone looking to replace a factory system, or upgrade their current system. I highly recommend btoh the Dual 6820, and Crutchfield. from Crutchfield.com PROS: It was very easy to install on the radios part, some incompatibility with my 88 Honda Civic Hatchback. I really like the iplug, it works great with my iriver H10 20GB and the 1 foot 3.5mm headphone jack extension that I got so I could set my MP3 player on my center console. Not to mention that it looks great in my dash with the faceplate surround clipped on. from Crutchfield.com

Pros: Rotary knob, sound, display, appearance.

Cons: No dim, loud inputs, loud amp.

The Bottom Line: So far, I've enjoyed using this unit. It's a great low cost choice and proves to me Dual can make good, inexpensive stereos.

from Shopping.com Great player. Works like a charm. from Amazon.com The Dual XDM6820 receiver is inexpensive, but works nicely in my VW Golf -- better than the original VW receiver and CD player, in fact. from Amazon.com 1. The anti-skip mechanism isnt so great (but hey... dont you mean to get rid of your old CD's and only use your iPod as your media source) 2. from Amazon.com I was in love with radio until it was stolen out of my car :( The radio was great. It even came with audio cable to hook up your MP3 player. I replaced this head unit with a new Pioneer. from Amazon.com Boston Acoustics 5 1/4" in the front and JBL 6 1/2" in the rear. AM stations sound like the factory's FM and the FM is so clear that I hear instruments in the music that I didn't hear before. I must say that the Dual unit lacks a low end unless you turn on the "loudness," and then it is adequate. A large part of the problem is the JBL's in the back. from Amazon.com
