Default Jenson Anyone???

What's up guys, I just wanted to know does anybody here own any Jenson products. I know that they are made by Audiovox and I know most of their stuff is crap. I've been looking at one of their head units (Jenson 6.5in touchscreen multimedia receiver) and it seems like a really nice product. I actually had a friend of mine that works for an audio installation company tell me that this is Jenson best product. I wouldn't buy their speakers though lol (I've heard them and they suck!! Big Time!!). So if anybody here has some opinions on this product, feel free to weigh in. Thanks Guys!!!

I had a 7" touchscreen made by Jensen and I loved it. Sometimes it would give me trouble saying that the cd was bad but all I had to do was eject it and put it back in and it plays. Someone aparently wanted it even more than I did and they broke into my car and stole it so I'm not the only person that likes them I guess. I replaced it with a similar model that isn't a touchscreen and it is ok as well but its giving me **** over a new mp3 cd I burnt and it will not play it. My first one didn't have this problem. Long story short, buy one with a warrenty so if it ****s up you can get a new one. I DO recomend this sterio. I have it with my alpine type-r speakers and it sound's great. Really nice, loud, clear bass.

How much youlooking? Flipsouts are so cheap now a day, I would look into JVC for a better quality product.

I rate Jensen as "marginal" for their value. You will probably get a year or two of good use out of it, but after that I wouldn't guarentee anything.

I have heard them as well though, for their price you can't beat em with a stick, if you just want something temporary, If your going for a 3-5 year investment, like I usualy do, aim a little higher, at least pioneer or JVC, Sony or Kenwood. I know the touchscreens are higher with these brands, but they will probably last longer!

Or Eclipse or Kenwood, I would choose those 2 brand overs Pioneer and Alpine anyday of the week. But I reccomend the JVC because their pricing is down around thepricing on Jensen.
