Sony CDX Series

Get all the features you need at a great price point. 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. Integrated Pandora Internet Radio lets you play your favorite stations through your iPod with full control from the stereo. The 2 sets of 2 volt RCA outputs are perfect for adding in amplifiers 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.

Let's just say that the sound quality needs to be a close A+ for me to be satisfied and this one beat out the 2nd most expensive PIONEER & the 2nd most expensive KENWOOD in Best Buy. I do have to say the most expensive Sony deck that was at B.B. was also returned. What i did purchase, was the CDX_GT565UP and Im glad because of the awesome color selection!
I have 2 10" amplified subs, 2 amplified 6x9 Alpines & 2 seperate amplifiers in the rear. And the usual 6" door speaks and 3-1/4 in. dash speaks. So with 2 preouts I'm able to run whatever, whenever and the sound is wonderful. Believe me, my last thought was wanting to get a SONY! But i personally tried practically every deck I could w/out going NUTS! And this was the final purchase. So good luck and keep it LOUD & PROUD!!!

My problems seem to be with the faceplate. First it's plastic but it really FEELS plastic. I don't know how much abuse I would put up with but it feels easily breakable. The faceplate doesn't come with a box/container. That's bad.
