I was wanting to get some feedback from the people that have the New Clarion CMD-4

Comming from a XMD-1 Or XMD-3 how is the CMD-4 better.
Thanks

I know the remote will display the satalite radio station and song. Other than that I think the brain is the same. The place that will know is marineaudio.com they sell the most clarion marine in the states.

I love it. Coming from the XMD1, I get 3 out's. 1 in, and a rotary knob. Now I have the remote on the transom and the IPOD hooked up. With 3 amps, I can now fade from the boat to the tower and the sub has its own volume control. I would never go back...especially w/ the location in an '01 SAN.

We switched out the XMD-1 to the CMD-4 about 2 months ago, and am so glad we did this. Being able to run my IPod or my daughters Dell DJ is awesome. Not having to haul around a suitcase full of CDs on the boat was worth it alone. The knobs are a real improvement over the XMD-1's digital seek/change for fade/bass/treble/balance. The flip down face is a lot easier to use than the XMD-1's as mine would always jam. On a scale of 1 to 10 I'd give it an 8.
