3 out of 5 stars Not bad but wanted a little more   April 30, 2010
P. Hanlon (Florida)
I got this system to replace my 6 disc Bose unit in my Nissan that broke. I had it installed by a professional shop and they did a good job as far as the install goes. However the unit is underpowered compared to my Bose system (as was expected). The Nav seems to be ok, the voices that are available are pretty hard to understand as well as sounding like an old answering machine. I had a problem with the volume of the voice at first but solved it after some troubleshooting. For what I paid for the unit ($499) im pretty satisfied so far. I guess we will see in a few months or so. Another thing, my Bose sub that is located behind the drivers seat no longer works. I asked the people who installed it and they said that it was an external amp issue not a headunit problem. Oh and also I have not yet been able to get it to play mp3 discs which is a reason I got the unit.


4 out of 5 stars For the price its one of the best   March 15, 2010

I had it for about a week and its been great. Everything is easy to operate, I love how it has a speedometer which is dead accurate. The touch screen is good and the sensitivety is great.

I've had this unit for about 2 months now and I have to say I'm not as happy with it as I hoped I would be. This unit was listed as the only model that could provide GPS in a single DIN size, which is why I purchased it. The other selling feature for me is that it supports the steering wheel controls. I did have some trouble getting everything working correctly, but that did get worked out. The GPS, on the other hand, leaves quite a bit to be desired IMO. I hate the fact that I cant just enter a zip code to find a location - I have to enter the state first. That seems stupid to me. Also, I have tried to enter several locations in my city, and the street isn't listed. When the screen is up, during the day is is often difficult or impossble to see, so that doesn't do much good. I still rely on my handheald GPS which I can position so I can see it and it's much easier to use.
As far as listening to the radio or music when the display screen is retracted, it's annoying that I can't set the clock and have it be the default display. I have to push the display button to show the clock, and then if I adjust the volume, the display reverts back to the radio station or the CD track. That's also stupid. There should be the capability to set the preferences I want. I do really like the USB interface and I can have thumb drives that will play for days without having to repeat (I don't own an iPod). Another good point is the sound is great.
The remote control is funky in that it has to be almost straight in front of the unit to work. I was riding in the passenger seat of my Dodge truck and I couldn't just point the control from my lap - I had to hold it right in front.
I'll (have to) keep this unit for a year or 2 as it was pretty expensive, after which I'll be looking for a replacement. I wouldn't recommend it.



3 out of 5 stars A fair to good item   October 30, 2009

The good;
Sharp video, easy install and works very well with the additional Sirius radio. Does all that it says it will do. Easy to bypass the DVD park thing. Seems to be reliable. GPS antenna very sensitive even when located under large rear window.
The bad:
Just doesn't do it real well. Except the Sirius. GPS has neat features, but will take you on some really odd routes. Try it on some familiar routes to see how it thinks. Maps are lacking, especially for rural detail.
Really brief and vague install manual, in many many languages. Has one wire from the receiver whose function is never revealed. Never used, don't see any ill effects.
Sirius info when display is closed is very brief, no title or artist.
Should have a panel for aux a/v, usb inputs, instead of just loose wires, very tacky.
Rather deep chasis, wire package. Make sure you have plenty of room in the dash.



4 out of 5 stars Nice radio for the price   September 25, 2009
Steven L. Goldman (Dix Hills, New York USA)
2 out of 2 found this review helpful

I just received the NZ409 and elected to have it professionally installed instead of doing this myself. Everything I've read online said that the 2003 Honda Civic is pretty "tight" and it may not be easy to do this as an amateur. In addition to the head unit, I also had a backup camera, Sirius SC-C1 Satellite Radio and Blue Tooth installed.

The good news: The Clarion's menus are pretty intuitive and easy to navigate through the different levels. The radio doesn't need any additional hardware adapters for Sirius. The SC-C1 receiver plugs right it. The receiver display provides nice options for saving the radio and satellite presets. My iPod iTouch was recognized immediately and I was able to navigate through the different playlists easily. I tried the DVD feature and it seemed to work well. The display is sharp and bright (although I probably won't use this much). The GPS works well and the guidance seems to be accurate. It acquires a signal quickly and has a very bright and understandable display.

The bad news: You'll need a USB extension cable if you plan on using this feature of the phone. I got a 6' long extension and leave the wire coiled up in my glove box. The fact that it plays DVD's is nice, but unless you're planning on sitting in your car for 2 hours burning the battery or your gas, you won't get a lot of use from this feature as the parking brake has to be on for this feature to work. I understand it's a safety feature, but it's still something you'll have to deal with. I had some issues with the BLT370 working with the head unit. Both are Clarion's products and switching the blue tooth unit didn't yield any better results. The book is still out on this feature as no easy answer seems to make this work. Another weird knock on the GPS is the voice of the guidance director. It seems very "electronic" and has the same kind of sound as the box used by people who have had radical throat surgeries. It also takes a bit longer than other units I've used when recalculating your route after a mistake.

All in all, I think it's a great value for all of the features it has. As of right now (2 days after my installation) I'm really happy with my choice of an aftermarket radio selection.
