I am not really a fan of Sony at all. But I've owned a Sony car stereo before and absolutly LOVED it. And this one is no different!! It is an AMAZING product. It does everything I need it to do nothing more and nothing less. I would take this stereo over JVC, Jenson, Kenwood, and Pioneer any day. The sound is incredable!!!!! BUY THIS PRODUCT IT RULES!!!

The Bluetooth connectivity is AWESOME with my iphone 4 and other Bluetooth devices. I would buy another one for my wife's car if the phone calls were better. I can hear people fine in my car when they call me, but when I talk, the people on the other line hear a terrible echo and/or they cant hear me. I sometimes have to shout in order to hear them or i struggle with my headphones while driving in order to talk to them. This product is ALMOST AWESOME.

We had a great experience dealing with Sonic Electronix. Fantastic deal on our stereo and the included dash kit and harness made it even better! Thanks a ton.
