The Crown Audio car audio system is designed to be installed in cars with a single slot on the dashboard, known as 1 DIN. It includes a radio, USB, and AUX for playing music from devices such as a mobile phone or MP3 player.
It has 4 output channels for connecting to the front and rear speakers of the car. Additionally, with Bluetooth, you can make hands-free calls to talk on your mobile phone without having to hold it in your hand, thereby reducing the likelihood of an accident.
Installation is recommended to be carried out by a specialized technician.

It is a value for money. Do not expect crazy performance and crystal clear sound. However, its performance is satisfactory and it is an ideal solution for someone who simply wants to listen to their music in the car
After the installation, while all the wiring was complete, my car's alarm and locking/unlocking from the key stopped working, creating numerous electrical problems over a span of three years. As soon as I changed the audio system to a newer model, everything magically returned to normal without changing the wiring.
It probably arrived defective as after 1 month it stopped making sound. One day it was fine, the next it didn't make a sound again, neither the radio nor the BT. A replacement cannot be made because obviously the packaging has been opened. Generally wasted money
Very good source for the car for its price. Instant connection with my phone's bluetooth, you can make changes to the sound. Anyone who just wants a source that has everything and doesn't want to spend 100+ euros is exactly what they need.
Purchase €17 with expenses €20.
It was installed in an Opel Vectra B.
The previous owner had an old silvercrest. The unit connected easily but didn't hold station memory; you need to reverse the two wires, yellow with red, to get a constant power source from the battery and not just when you turn the key.
And it works perfectly, very satisfied.
Very good sound.
The Bluetooth works great, and you can talk and listen perfectly.
The antenna I had connected and picks up FM just fine.
Simple menu. Honest for the money. If you want Pioneer, you go 60+
It has a nice and small menu that could have more features; in daylight, you can't see what station you're setting. At night, the lighting is super, easy installation
Amazing, obviously at this price you clearly get it just for the bluetooth if you don't care too much about sound quality (which is fine anyway) and just want to listen to your songs on the go. It does its job perfectly and is also affordable.
The main disadvantage is that it does not have memory, so every time I turn on the radio it starts from the lowest frequency (I have not connected anything wrong, it just does not have a cable for memory and the manual does not show anything about memory). The second negative is that it turns on with a button every time. However, the bluetooth works well for music, there are no disconnections during calls, it does not have a good microphone and I do not use it. It has been working well for a year, unlike other similar products that broke down with the first heat.
For 22€ it's a good deal! You get this one for the Bluetooth, which automatically connects every time you get in the car and listen to internet stations or Spotify. You don't get it for the FM reception. And while it plays USB mp3 just fine and continues from the next track from the last time you were listening every time you turn it on, unfortunately it's difficult to choose a folder (the folder changes from memories 5 & 6 if you hold them down for 3 secs). I like the sound of it. I have also connected it to an active subwoofer and it sounds good. It also has standard equalizer settings (pop, rock, classic, etc.). Finally, in calls it sounds good, but you either need to speak a little louder to be heard or lean towards the radio a bit.
Chinese crap
The sticker that said "crown" came off.
It plays the radio stations at different volumes, the songs from the flash drive at another volume, and the songs from Bluetooth at yet another volume.
Poor sound quality.
The left button for searching stations doesn't work due to a manufacturing error.
It connects quickly with the phone, but the person on the other end can't hear you during a call.
I don't recommend it.
I wasted my money
Very good volume and clear sound. Connects in a few seconds via USB and Bluetooth. In Bluetooth mode, I noticed that the volume is slightly lower than FM radio, but still satisfactory. I have no idea about the microphone since I don't use hands-free calling in the car. Also, I cannot currently give an opinion on signal reception because I haven't traveled a long distance after installing the audio system, but from a first test, it seems to work correctly.
As for the installation, it gave me a little trouble, but that is due to the wiring of the previous audio system (AEG CS FMP 550 IR) which was not ISO, so I had to cut wires. After the first connection, I realized that it doesn't retain station presets and time. So, I swapped the red wire with the yellow one and the problem was solved.
Very satisfied with the volume, bass, and sound quality. I wanted Bluetooth and it connects very easily, many times automatically in the car. Two main negatives are that it doesn't pick up FM stations well and it barely hears me from the microphone, only when I lean towards the microphone they can hear me.
Good as a Bluetooth device, but it doesn't pick up ANY radio stations, not to mention that it doesn't work at all if you remove the antenna. I wonder why they claim it has a radio. Something similar from skrutz, which costs half the price, had better reception.
I give it four stars because my wife complains that she can't hear me well when I speak to her, while I can hear her perfectly through the car speakers. The plugs were easily inserted, luckily they were ready from another Chinese one I had and they fit immediately. The sound quality is amazing for its price and its menu is simple. The package included the plugs, frame, and brackets, as well as a remote control. Worth it for its price. If I see that it was just a coincidence and there was no signal issue with the Bluetooth and you can be heard in the end, then I will give it five stars.
Amazing radio!!
Crown had top radio cassette players from the 80s! Like the amazing beast model Crown 850!!!!!!!
I highly recommend it (the radio I bought), it plugged directly into a 2002 car socket!
Installation was done in a minute!
At the 20€ I bought it, I don't have much to say. It is decent, with 2 USB ports (one for charging mobile phones and the other for a memory stick), satisfactory sound and volume. The only negative thing for me is that you can't search through folders on the stick and choose whichever one you want, it has all the songs inside with numbers and NOT titles, so you can't select what you want, you have to search randomly. However, due to the low price, I can't complain too much! Let's hope it lasts at least over time.
It has a very satisfactory sound, I think for all tastes, both in quality and volume. Very good performance from Bluetooth. The main drawback of the device I received is the poor radio signal reception, to the point where you simply can't hear the radio. Personally, I'm not interested since I play everything through BT. In my car, in order to retain presets, I had to manipulate the power supply to avoid losing presets and settings. If someone knows how to do it themselves, it's a ten-minute job, otherwise an electrician is needed. I emphasize that when I spoke to the store about the power and radio reception issue, they offered me a replacement, but it was too much trouble and time-consuming for me to do it, and I kept it since what interested me was the Bluetooth functionality and sound quality.
Flawless, I have no words. It works perfectly, especially the Bluetooth. I have enjoyed it and especially the phone call feature is worth it. It is a value for money purchase and its durability over time will show.
It does what it says! Very easy installation. I put it in a Toyota Corolla 98 model. The wires had the same color as the car's wires. If I had better speakers, I would have better sound. The build quality of the radio seems good, especially for its price. The connections at the back are good but cheap radios I have installed had separate connections for power and speakers. That's the worst part.
Very good purchase. It replaced a radio cassette player in a double cabin Nissan Pickup.
All functions are flawless. Automatic station search, 16 presets, USB folder and random play, simple and easy button design ideal for use in a car. The call quality from the Bluetooth is unbelievable.... I also have a JVC with an external microphone in another car and the quality is the same!!!
Installation is very easy, especially if you get the appropriate ISO connector for your car. Plug and play, no cutting wires and reconnecting.
Especially at this price (19 euros), I highly recommend it without hesitation.
