Summary: Great Microsystem!
Review: This stereo is very awesome. The highs are crisp and the built in subs can't be beat. The changing lights on the LCD are spiffy too! Overall great sound and awesome looking too. I love it!

Summary: Good for the Money, but a little Chunky
Review: Unlike other mp3 players on the market (like the Kenwood 8017 in my car) this mp3 player DOES NOT allow you to skip directly to certain songs. Imagine a TV with 150 channels but you have to change channels one at a time, wouldn't that be inconvenient? You know that, I know that, but the makers of these mp3 players haven't figured that out. The remote included with the Rio EX1000 doesn't have digits 0-9 that would be required to skip directly to say, track 100. The remote only has next track, previous track, and skip 10 tracks, so if you turn your Rio EX1000 on and want to play mp3 track #107 you have to press "skip 10 tracks" 10 times, then "next track" 7 times. 17 button presses just to get to the song you want to play! Now you could shove everything in folders, but that doesn't mean it'll be any easier, you'd still have to navigate to the right folder, skip up a few songs, etc. Take my advice, skip this unit and find one that does allow "direct access" to songs. Usually it's the remotes with buttons 0-9.
