Boss 820UA
$150.00
Released January, 2010
The Pros:Standardized mount makes this easier to install than some units. Decent number of inputs available for this price.
The Cons:Knob controls feel too loose, difficult to be precise when changing settings. Amplifier seems to distort playback at higher volumes. Bass response is lacking, low output even with the "loud" function turned on.
