Looks like it's a JVC KW XC770 CD Cassette Receiver to me.

Found this page that looks like the same unit http://ecoustics.consumerreview.com/pscCarReview/Car+Audio/CD+Receivers/KW,XC770,CD,Cassette,Receiver/PRD_97754_2861crx.aspx

Not that I was bored or anything   s:lol: :lol: s:lol:

yeah but for another £100 you would be able to get much better sound and SQ from other modles JVC is a ok make but not that modle !

i would recomend and Alpine or Pioneer above £160 and you would get a good arounder

why double din ?

but double dins are not very popular and noramally not a very good spec So

i would go for it then if you want a double din

I dunno, i've always wanted one lol, i know the spec isn't that great but i just like them, i dunno why.

What i reckon would be a great idea is a h/u (double din) with a TV screen on the front of it, like the built in ones you get in the more expensive cars.

Never mind lol

you can get them errr dont tell the others but if you buy max power they are advertsed in teh ICE section there around £500 tho but tehy play DVD and CD

but for that price your better off buying a single din flip out screen as it would have a larger spec
