Big Xplod Style
Now you can get that large Xplod style in a bigger Double DIN area. With Sony's WX-GT77UI, you will be able to experience that unique Sony Xplod style, simplicity, as well as that unique Xplod equalizer sound. The face of the unit features a basic two-line display and a circular theme that makes controlling the unit easy, as well as added a sense of style to your vehicles dash. On the rear of the receiver is a USB port that enables the connection of a iPod, which can then be controlled directly from the headunit. To make the navigation of songs easier, Sony had developed ZAPPIN technology to assist in the searching for song tracks. The WX-GT77UI also features a built-in 3-band parametric equalizer that has several presets so you can get the most out of your music, no matter what genres you listen to. If your car has steering wheel controls, the simple add on of PAC's SWI-PS will retain those controls so you can keep those convenient controls. On the front of the unit there is a auxiliary input that allows the connection of other audio sources such as MP3 players, Microsoft Zunes, Smart Phones, and other audio devices. For the simple upgrade to an aftermarket double DIN receiver, the Sony WX-GT77UI is the perfect solution for both style and sound quality!

Installed this unit in a 2008 Frontier during the last snowstorm. Wiring harness and Antenna adapter made hookup very easy but dash kit required trim modifications to make it fit. Also got Sony XT-100HD tuner and the required wires in back of the head unit made for a difficult fit in the dash (needed to bend a support tab on dash). Unit looks great, sounds great, and is very easy to navigate. One of the best units out there for the price in a double DIN style. With HD tuner and sub amp, unit recognized both and the whole package works perfect. Very happy I upgraded my stock radio. Although I wish the unit came with Built-in HD, lot of extra wires. Also, orange would be a nice third color option since my Nissan uses that color for back lighting.

Everything you need to complete the job. Instruction were so easy to follow and if you need help, it's there for you also. Great reception and too many station memories to fill. All possible devices can be connected (mp3, ipod, etc.)

I needed a replacement radio for my 2002 Escape and this Sony unit really caught my eye. It is a double din head unit which required a little dash opening modification but everything worked out well. When I called Sonic customer service they were very helpful guiding me through the wiring harness connections. The Sony unit has larger buttons and the iPod wire connection is a real plus. Thank You Sonic for a great product at a great price !!!

I purchased this last summer and I have not been thrilled with its performance. The connection to the iPod works but the control of the iPod from the stereo is primitive - it will only play things in album order, and who buys complete albums these days? Then the radio went out after three months - no AM and very weak FM. Spent $33 sending it back to Sony for warranty repair. After they fixed it the first time, the unit came back with no AM or FM! Sent it back again, and it still does not work. Very disappointing.

I like this unit because of all the feature it has like the usb port and all the level adjustment. I have a 10 disk Sony changer hooked up to this unit and it plays great. I would by this Sony unit again.
