Pros Plays everything I have put in it, decent sound, variety of settings.
Cons Unit runs hot after about an hour, memory erases mysteriously sometimes.
Recommended it? Yes

I bought this unit on sale at Best Buy for $111.00 including installation. A bargain. I was pessimistic about the price and the brand, but I wanted a CD player with MP3 capability and I decided to give it a try.

Things I like: The unit plays everything I have put in it. MP3's at all... Read full review »

Pros Ease of use. Auxiliary input. Price.
Cons Volume knob is hard to adjust. Loses memory when it gets cold.
Recommended it? No

I also purchased this unit in November. I was warned by a car audio store to steer clear of DUAL Audio but sometimes they try to steer you to a higher end product. I was looking for MP3 playback at a low price. The looks of the unit are nice and lots of presets.
If it were not for the memory... Read full review »

Pros rear aux inputs, lots of FM/AM presets, plenty of power.
Cons very dim or broken lcd.
Recommended it? No

I bought this unit yesterday. It has many features that i really need,specially the rear aux inputs. As soon as I installed it the face plate went blank. A bit of shaking etc I got it to come back on very dimly. I took the face and radio back to Frys the next day for an exchange. The new one is... Read full review »

Pros Relatively inexpensive; includes MP3 play back.
Cons Poor construction; terrible support.
Recommended it? No

I tried to buy a new face plate (mine went dark). I emailed their customer support, cs@dualav.com, and never got an answer. Three (business) days later I telephoned them - the guy on the phone told me I had to send email to customer support to get a new face plate. I emailed them again - and again... Read full review »

Dual XDM-6800 - Do not buy this!

bymisterjoel Jun 28, 2004
2 Helpfuls 3 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros None
Cons Display, durability
Recommended it? No

Terrible. One star is too generous for this stereo. The display on my unit faded out and is very faint after four months. It constantly needs to be reset to recognize CDs, losing all presets. A number of other reviewers on other sites have had similar problems with the display and with other... Read full review »

Very disappointing face plate

Pros The faceplate offers 2 sets of 10 FM pre-sets.
Cons Face plate burns out quickly!
Recommended it? No

Within weeks of purchase, the faceplate burnt out.

Best Buy would not replace the faceplate, though I finally was able to replace the faceplate. But now -- just three months later -- the faceplate has burnt out again.

I cannot see the time, track, station, etc. It is a pain!... Read full review »
