Just wanted to know if Power Accoustik PADVD-740R is a good HU. The specs are as follows:

Dolby Pro-Logic/DTS Compatible
Load/Mute
Electronic Vol/Bass/Tre/Bal/Fad
Jumbo LCD Display W/Dancing Spectrum Analyzer
OSD On Screen Display
3 Way RCA Outputs
2 Pairs RCA Line Out
1 Sub Woofer RCA Line Out
Hi Power (40w X 4)
Remote Control
Full Detachable Face
AM/FM Digital Radio
Slot Loading DVD For Multiple Angle Mounting
Last Position Memory
Accessory Remote Eye
A/V Output & A/V Input
Digital Anti-Shock
NTSC/PAL Selectable
Clock

Now I'm wondering if, other than the Pioneer, there is a better HU with the same features at a budget price. I picked this one up for $120 and also if anyone here has some Pros or Cons about it.

    I dont like Power Acoustic much. I consider them to be a cheap-o brand like Pyle, Jensen or Audiovox. However if you have already bought the HU and like it then dont worry about what we think! ;)

    Yea thats what I expected. However, I got it because of the price and the different features it offers. The higher end HU might not even have all the features plus they are over priced.

    Well I just got it so I am waiting for my friend (Al & Ed's installer) to custom mount my LCD on a board then mount the HU in my glove compartment. Once its all done I will take pics and hopefully my amps get here Tuesday or Wednesday. I am SO EXCITED to see and HEAR the final product. :D
