Sony head unit March 15, 2010 Boise, Idaho Jam packed with features... (3) sets of outputs, USB and Front AUX jack. It also has a plug in the back for a CD changer control (only works with a CD changer as an input) unless you get a cable that 'tricks' the radio into thinking there is one connected, then you can use it as a 3rd input. It has built in LPF and HPF, sub control, all the functions the expensive Pioneers have.. Good power output, remote, etc. Sony has customer support that actually helped me with the install, and she was American...Imagine that.
The Bad - The controls are difficult, if you want to go through the tracks, the button is really small and not directly lit. (pain) to push. The Ipod controls on the deck are also difficult to remember how to work and I can't get them to consistently operate the same way. The display is also very bright if you dont have the dimming wire connected to the lights...
Awesome March 12, 2010 Sophia Fenn I love this radio. The functions are easy to use and I install it myself. It has a built in amplifier that works well also. Love it!
Works great with i-Touch March 8, 2010 Sean M. Moran I bought this before I upgraded to an i-Touch..actually this pushed me to upgrade. The reason being is that on older ipod models (mine was a 5th generation video ipod) you can't use the ipod controls. You are stuck using the head unit controls only. This is not a problem in itself but navigation can get tedious with all the little buttons. i-Touch and newer Nano models are able to be controlled by either the head unit or the ipod interface. The best part is that once you enable the ipod control, you can still use the head unit controls.
The installation was about as easy as any DIN unit. This will of course depend on the car in which you are installing.
As with any aftermarket unit, there seems to be a lot of buttons very close together. It is too easy to push the wrong button and end up in a mode that changes the function of what you are doing. Unfortunately, I think this is the case with all the models on the market right now.
Back to the iPod support which is the main reason for buying this unit. I read the Crutchfield reviews and determined this model had the best iPod navigation. The navigation is very good but you really can't search for a song or artist while you are driving and be safe on the road. The iPod interface is much better for this. I generally just use the head unit interface for advancing to the next song sometimes switching between music and podcasts. The rest is easier just to do on the iPod.
I bought two of these; one for each car. I am very happy for the price paid and would recommend it to anyone with an iTouch or iPhone or newer Nano.
One more thing, my car's interior lighting is blue (VW Jetta and Passat) so I selected the blue lighting on the head unit. It's fine during the day but far too bright at night. I had to switch to the green light instead :(.
nice unit March 7, 2010 laquer (here) This is a great unit for some one that likes to constantly fine tune their music.The selection switch is very touchy so if you touch it to turn the volume down you may have inadvertently selected your balance,fade or equalizer.The unit is easier to operate at night because the display is not easily seen in the day light.
I really like this unit,it was easy to install and has many options for customising your system,but I am very disappointed in the display not being easily seen in the day light and for the frustration I give 4 stars
Sony CDXGT640UI MP3/WMA/AAC Player CD Receiver (Black) March 6, 2010 Pete O. (US) So far so good. Very nice for a fair price. Love the digital radio sound quality and text. The faceplate is quite attractive. The only thing I don't like is that the display is not very visible in daylight, but at night it looks sharp and creates a nice atmosphere. I don't think this kit includes a protective case for the faceplate, mine didn't. There are lots of features here, I've just started to read up on them. I'm glad I bought this deck.
