Valor DD-858W In-Dash 2 DIN AM/FM/CD/DVD Fixed Panel Review
January 28th, 2010
Valor DD-858W In-Dash 2 DIN AM/FM/CD/DVD Fixed Panel Review from hmbay. Excellent value for hard-to-find double-din unit, Price has gone up since I bought it, but it is still an excellent deal considering a conventional AM/FM/CD will run almost as much in the double-din format (I have a 2000 Toyota Tacoma). Have seen complaints about the display being dim, but this is not the case (there is a DIM button on the unit and it cycles through the brightness levels). Have also seen complaints about needing the remote control to access certain functions – also not true. All the functions, including setup are available on the touch screen. There is apparently a 2GB limit to the SD cards (I haven’t tested this with larger cards since 2GB cards are dirt cheap and hold huge amounts of music) and the unit takes two of them plus has a USB port and an ipod connection. The only inconvenient thing is that the Bluetooth capability uses a microphone on a wire instead of having it built into the unit but that actually makes sense since most double-din units are located low on the dashboard. Bluetooth quality is excellent. DVD player plays DivX and XviD videos. Overall terrific value.
