Sony CDX Series

This stereo is perfect for any budget build where high quality audio is preferred. Have full control over the music you listen to with the on board low-pass and high-pass filters. The 7-band equalizer allows you to adjust specific frequencies to cutoff sounds your speakers cannot handle. The set of 2 volt RCA outputs is perfect for adding in an amplifier to your system with ease. The Sony Quick-BrowZer makes it a breeze to find the songs you are looking for by allowing you to search with the rotary dial as opposed to single button selections. Look no further, the Sony CDX-GT40U is a staple for head-unit's, and this head-unit really packs a punch that you will enjoy.

Customer Testimonial

I'd just like to say that you guys at Sonic Electronix are way awesome. I ordered a Sony amp that turned out to be discontinued, but Larsen and Armen were able to figure out a deal that made me a happy customer. Thanks guys, keep up the great work!
