Author's Review
I wanted to add MP3-CD playback to my DeVille Factory Radio (the factory radios in the DeVille unfortunately can not be replaced with after market products because of the integration of other vehicle functions with the radio). The only options appear to be RF Modulated CD changers with MP3 playback capabilities. I read poor reviews about the Sony (difficulties in reading MP3-CDs) so I decided to go with this JVC. The sound is very good (because of direct connection to the antenna jack there is no static or loss of range) but not incredible (the sound quality is somewhere between good playback of audio CDs and good FM reception). The changer is very quick in changing discs and reading files. Not one problem so far in disc reading or skipping. MP3 ID tags can be read on the dash display. Best Buy charged $75 for installation which took around 90 minutes.
