Awesome Radio on Car Audio

However, the installation was painful. I'm glad I went to the trouble of installing this radio in my 2005 Ford Escape XLT. The GPS is very handy and the quality and setup are very satisfactory. I recommend everyone to buy such a cool radio😄

Pros
  • Best in Niche
Cons
  • Communication with Seller

Android Auto Interference

This head unit does not flush fit with the Scosche Dash Mount Kit. (This is due to the very short recessed lip on the main unit.) This keeps it from sliding forward to sit flush. Also, Android Auto is very buggy, the voice control button on the steering wheel works several times and only when using Android Auto, never easy to call when using only Bluetooth. iPod works fine, Sirius XM works fine, DVD and CD work fine. I will probably never use some of the features of this device.

Pros
  • Handsfree
Cons
  • Quality

I think it works fine, terrible button layout BSM

I think it works fine. Barely got through the facility. They have a BSM button on the front of the screen that should program the stations with the strongest signal. Unfortunately, it's right next to that station tuner, and tapping that button will reset all of your saved stations. There is no way to turn this off and as far as I know there is no way to save your stations. In 15 minutes I dropped at least five of my stations. If there was a button that would reset all your work, there would be…

Sounds cool in my 2010 FJ Cruiser

Replaced a 2011 Panasonic head unit with the addition of a navigation module. Since I was using my iPhone to navigate instead, I decided to upgrade to a device with CarPlay. The first thing that struck me is how much better the radio sounds, maybe HD? Now it is more pleasant to listen to the radio. I stream my music and it works fine. I connect my iPhone with a lightning cable and stream. The most interesting thing is that after I get out of the car with the iPhone and come back without…

Pros
  • Lots of positive emotions
Cons
  • Not bad

03 chevy tahoe best car stereo receivers

I did a lot of research before purchasing this head unit and it is by far the best unit for the price and features. Bluetooth, DVD, CD/MP3, iPod connection, Spotify and Pandora and car games for Apple and Android. I use Apple and it connected in about 5 seconds. He has a great image for movies. there were only a few errors. 1. Quickly toggling between bluetooth and autoplay causes some things not to appear on the screen, but you can press Spotify again (for example) and everything will be…

Pros
  • Excellent construction
Cons
  • Trade-in

Lots of features and good sound at an affordable price

, I installed one in March on my 2002 F350 which was stolen in July. I was happiest with the original, so I replaced it with the same AVH-2550NEX. The biggest disappointment is the difficulty in getting all the details to compare. Different sellers have no parts, incorrect data or incomplete data. Even the Pioneer site doesn't list the input jack size for the AUX mini jack, which is 3.5mm. HOW: * HD radio so I can receive additional extensions from specific radios. * Bluetooth calls are VERY…

Pros
  • Everything is great!
Cons
  • Dear
