Blaupunkt "V-Line" Sacramento CD33 CD Receiver
For a basic system, you can't beat it!
This is a new product from the Bosch group's Blaupunkt line. I expected no frills for the price but WOW! was I surprised.  There is no remote or face case, but for my application I don't mind. The first thing I noticed was the heavy gauge wires for power &amp; ground, followed by the attractive styling of the unit. It may look a little modern for some applications but it is pleasing to look at once installed. The controls are well placed &amp; the volume/tuning dials feel good being made of a tough rubber. The set up and audio controls seem a bit complicated for a &quot;basic&quot; unit but once programed you will love the sound.  The sound that this head unit puts out is quite good, and in fact far superior to the Sony CDX-L600X it replaced in my car. Blaupunkt uses a bass enhancer called X-Bass &amp; this REALLY moves air. I have had to set it at the lowest level to keep my cheap speakers intact. With quality speakers this radio sounds very good, especially when you consider the price. The CD player is clear &amp; virtually skip free in my car (which is lowered &amp; rides rather roughly). The readout is a bit dim in the day but is legible and at night it is clear &amp; not too bright to spoil your view of the road. This is my first Blaupunkt product and most likely not my last. Do not let my warnings about set up &amp; adjustment put you off, I gave it 5 stars because it met &amp; exceeded all my requirements &amp; should meet yours as well if you are looking for an inexpensive quality head unit.
