Pros: Strong base with lots of options for upgrades. Price is right.
Cons: Right "joystick" seems flimsy. Output straight to speakers is low RMS/Peak.

Overall I am very happy with the VM9412. It's a great unit that offers many options to upgrade into, so if you are on a budget but want it all eventually, this is a strong base that will let anyone do what they want by letting them get parts one bit at a time.

My particular favorite option is the MZ7TFT available for the unit. It is a second 7" touchscreen that utilizes almost all of the controls from the main unit to control the second zone for ease of use.

Another feature I am fond of is the built-in equalizer and spectrum analyzer for fine tuning the audio.

I am a bit disappointed with the low wattage available from the deck ot the speakers directly, but nothing a multichannel amp can't fix. For subwoofers, the single RCA must be split in order for it to work with most amplifier setups for subs.
