| Review summary | The Sony CDX-GT520 is a decent option for those wanting a reasonably priced stereo to play disc-based audio. While it does support HD Radio, it requires the connection of a clunky add-on module, which is almost more trouble than it's worth. | If you're looking for a cost-effective means of bringing HD Radio into your car, the JVC KT-HDP1 is an attractive option. | The JVC KD HDR1 in-car stereo delivers HD Radio and most other digital-audio playback options for a very competitive price. | The Alpine CDA-9885 combines attractive styling and an easy-to-use music search interface with a host of expandability options, including HD Radio capability. However, those upgrading to HD Radio will have to deal with a clunky module and a hefty price tag. | |
