A cd deck i found at sams club

yeah that remote is weird...i saw that the other day ...i work at sams and i rarely walk around the place but i just did that one day last week on my break...i don't know the brand either....unless u are really in need of one of those then go right ahead...but i can't say ne thing about it...i personally wouldn't waste my money on it...

BOSS is one of those lesser brands that kinda bite of another name 'BOSE' They make somewhat decent equipment.

I didn't buy it because i wasn't familiar with the brand. Anyone have any input on this.

Thats one big ass confusing remote

I'm always skeptical of manufacturers who list their max output power significantly over twice their RMS power. The computer industry is full of "600" watt speakers that cost only $30. My first boss used to tell me that they got the max power ratings by throwing the live speakers in a swimming pool, pissing in it, and measuring the peak power before they blow up. I think he's right.

I'd consider it a gamble. Other sites list it at $149. The power output ratings are questionable. 80 watts per channel from a head unit? How do they get those numbers.

NO !!! You will regret it !!! Add the extra $$ and get a real one.

Yes that remote is weird, Could you imagine driving and searching for the right button ??

Boss is a decent brand.. not the best but i haven't heard bad reviews from it

It doesn't show anything for preouts, so you might lose out if you want to expand to an amp

80 watts max per channel. Besides that could be just a rating on a specific frequency. Some lesser manufacturers do that. It's most like 15-20 rms on the full spectrum.

boss is one of those companies that offers some nice features that catch peoples eye for a low price. usually something isnt right here...

ya i was just like what the heck i have never seen 80 watts by 4 channels i was like what the hell

hehehe that faceplate reminds me of alpine decks...

Oh come on now, pyle makes great amps and speakers.. If you really like distortion

Hmm.. wonder why this pyle 12" sub speaker is only $9 on ebay?

I had a Boss deck for a while. Not the best, but it was alright for 6 months or so. My sister's boyfriend and I were working on it one day, relocating the subs to the trunk instead of the backseat, and somehow we lost all radio reception. Antennae was plugged in, everything was fine, but we just had no reception. I figure they're priced so low because you need to replace them every 6 months. But hey, that's just my luck. You might be different. Oh, and after that all, someone broke into my car and stole my deck that only played CD's
