Important tip for buyers - Whether you are buying a cassette player, CD player, Mini Disk, or DVD player, It is a must that you know this...
Buy what you need - When you go to the store, look at any specific brand and you will notice 2 to 5 car stereo receivers that looks exactly the same except the prices are different .
That's how they get you,
When these car stereo equipments are are being manufactured, a couple of features are added or removed. then they slap a different model number in it, maybe change the color a bit, then they sell it to you for more money.
Everything inside is the same (I'm talking about the main components)
The cheapest way - By only what you need. Ask the salesman what the difference is between the receivers that look the same.
If you don’t plan to install a CD changer, don’t buy the receiver that’s also a CD control.
The Cheap Alternative - if the only reason you want to change a receiver is because it’s a cassette player and not a CD player, You may want to invest in a portable a CD player. It's cheapest way
