I had a 6 CD changer system in my Ford Ranger which quit working. Actually, when I bought the truck (used), the CD changer did not work and I bought a new 6 CD changer from a junkyard and installed it. After about a year or so, it quit working (notorious for this type of CD changer). Rather than waste another $100 or so from a junkyard, I decided to get this unit for a few more dollars. My wife actually bought it for me for Valentine's Day. It was a pain to install with the install mount frame but I finally got it in and it looks and sounds great! I have to limit the volume to about 15 or 20 as any more and it will probably blow the speakers. The bluetooth works well and I can do hands free telephone conversations through the stereo to my phone. It will also recognize my smartphone and do media from it or the smartphone can control the Sony system. The tuner and CD work great. It will also do Pandora through a smartphone and Sirius radio if you connect a Sirius satellite radio tuner to this Sony receiver. My wife loves the colorful display and the way it changes and is synchronized to the music. Actually, it's way too good for my truck but a lot better than the stock CD changer system that has a history of failure. I love my Sony! Read more

Great and simple upgrade for the 99-03 super duty trucks. Really boosts the sound quality. The usb works with all iPhones and androids really any usb. Also the usb charges the phone. I dont use the Bluetooth when the usb works good. There was no difference in sound quality when using the usb compared to Bluetooth which is great. Read more

This head unit looks great and has good button feel. The rotary know has a rubber grip and is easy to use. The display looks good as well as you can edit the font color as well at the button colors. The menus are a bit hard to decipher as the screen does its best job to abbreviate the options. This will make you go to the instructions quite often to understand what they mean. Bluetooth was easy to set up and use. The only thing I have an issue with is that there is a big sound deficiency from going to CD to radio and Bluetooth. It may be that I have to dive deeper into the settings to set up the sound for each source but this is not as user friendly as it could be, hence the star knocked off. I'm sure over time I will get used to it... Read more

When I first purchased this radio I was unsure if it would work with the iPhone 6. I made a couple of calls to Sony and they said they never tested the radio with the 6. After installing and pairing my phone(which went smoothly) I installed the songPal app. The App is a complete waste of time in my opinion well almost you can adjust the EQ and other sound options from the app. But every time you turn the radio on it asks to Open App and you have to hit a button just to clear it very annoying.What I noticed when I tried to make my first call I hit the call button and it kept showing Set Pairing. My phone is already paired and streaming music. I found out that if you just push the enter button (the Volume knob) once, voice activation comes on and you can just say the person you want to call and Siri does the rest. I have the iPhone 6 plus and the streaming works flawless. When I get in the car I just tap the enter button and tell Siri what I want to listen to or it will just pick up where it left off with the music app you have playing ie: Pandora,iTunes etc and it starts to play. I also purchased the SiriusXM adapter. You get 3 months free and you can choose a music package as low as 11.39 a month. XM raido sounds ok not as good as streaming but close. After spending an hour or so messing with all the settings I think I finally have things set where I like them. Only thing I didn't like but knew when buying was it did not play MP3 CD's but you can use a jump drive for that. The illumination is very cool found a color that matches my dash lights. Read more

After doing some research and comparing different features, I purchased this Sony deck. It ABSOLUTELY SMOKES the Alpine head unit I had in car previously. The sound difference in the two was unbelieveable. I have Alpine type E 6x9's in rear deck and the Sony makes it sound as if I have a subwoofer back there. Pioneer components up front came alive as well. If you are planning on building up your system, this Sony has 3 SETS of pre-amp outputs, is Sirius capable, and bluetooth as well. Has a remote as well if your vehicle is large enough to require one. The color options are too many to list, so have fun matching them up to your vehicles dash lighting. If you're up in the air and cant decide, give this Sony a shot. I reccommend it and would definitely buy it again. Read more
