Scared crazy about these - but anybody have any experience with a command replacement from China?

Paying with paypal obviously makes one feel a little more comfortable, but still.... just not sure - hoping to tap your knowledge

There have been some threads with refrences to these in the audio forum. Consensus seems to be that they are junk/low quality. I have no experience with them myself, just passing on what I saw. Do a seach there and you shouild find the same reports.

I will probably just go with a double din HU when I'm done with performance mods and ready to start on my sound system. I ordered one of the HU surrounds from the link below and would be happy to let you know how it looks when it arrives:
