Could've been better but,... still very cool !

Date of Review:  Apr 5, 2004
The Bottom Line: The radio has a bunch of constrained features. Things could be better. Still, it looks outstanding, sounds just as good, & is easy to use.
Review: Overall, I'm happy with the Sony MEX-1HD. My main reasons for getting it were the look, the file navigation, skip protection, and how it displays lots of information on one screen. I had been looking at this unit in circuit city for quite some time...

Not perfect, but I still love it.

Date of Review:  Oct 16, 2002
The Bottom Line: Got to have the latest, greatest and coolest? Love instant access to your music? Got $1500 burning a hole in your pocket? Then this unit is for you!
Review: I too purchased the unit mainly because a friend got me a smoking deal. I was sick of moving my CD collection between my house and car, then having to choose which CD I wanted to listen to. The thought of some creep stealing my CD case was a little...

CD-text While Ripping

Date of Review:  Mar 19, 2003
The Bottom Line: Transferring audio files with text to the unit was performed by creating a CD-RW on my PC then ripping to unit. Interface was easy to learn and use.
Review: The recent introduction of car audio hard drives is welcome. I own a Sony Vaio PC and have my entire CD collection ripped to Sony's OpenMG (SonicStage) Digital Music Manager . I enjoy having a library of music on my PC and the thought of not having...

Sony, WHY?

Date of Review:  Oct 10, 2002
The Bottom Line: The bottom line is buy it if you can get an excellent deal, otherwise Sony needs to implement some improvements before it gets my final recommendation at its retail price.
Review: Why would Sony do a great thing and screw it all up??!! I bought this unit well below its suggested retail value because I have a friend that owns a shop. Needless to say, I had to have it. Do not get me wrong, what it does, it does well. It rips...

Sony's MEX-1HD seems purposely flawed, somewhat disappointing, ridiculously overpriced, still impressive, i'll take it!

Date of Review:  Mar 2, 2004
The Bottom Line: Overpriced. Needs a few obvious improvements. Still, at the moment i contend that the mex-1hd is arguably the best hard-drive head-unit available. Good system. Just a victim of bad marketing.
Review: This is an am\fm\cd\mp3\memory stick player which has the ability to rip a cd directly to the built in 10 gig hard-drive(16 gigs on the latest model). You can store at least 225 of your cd's or about 2000 songs hi-quality mode (up to 6000 songs if...

Pass on this one

Date of Review:  Mar 12, 2003
The Bottom Line: No.......get another Sony model or different brand alltogether. Whatever the price, it's hardly worth it....
Review: While I was initially impressed with what the unit was "supposed" to do, it hardly comes close to being worth the price tag or promise.

To start with, the initial price for $1500 should include more than the unit and a box. Adding a remote...
