MY favorite one lately, was one of my customers takes his lunch every day in his car and watches a movie while enjoying his cuisine. The rest are mix and match. Why they still need it? I would say I have a lot of old school customers that have hung on to there mini LPs (CDs) Our best seller is DDX-6906S.

If every single stereo on my shelf didn’t have CD, I wouldn’t lose out on any sales.

When we started seeing the swing to Mechless about 4 years ago, a lot of the units we did sell with CD/DVD was only because there was no Mechless option available at that price. The addition of CarPlay/Android Auto really accelerated that shift too.
