Sony WX-GT77UI

For the most part this is an awesome head unit. It fits very nicely into my 2007 Ford Fusion. The added remote is a bonus and the display is very retro looking. The only downside is that some of the buttons are difficult to push at times.

high quality product

I have owned this double din for several months , its design is classy and gives you the option of choosing green or blue for the button lighting , sound output is flawless . The usb is a big plus , and most importantly sonic electronics lowest price great value.

Works Great

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.

Not a quality product

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.

Does everything that I wanted for the price.

Looks good, Sounds good.

good , but need improvement

Good stereo, good radio reception, reading mp3 easily, display may be more informative and less blind on sun light . Recognized my iPhone 3GS but never played music from it. Never tried to connect iPod may be those connection will work. Connected only with regular flash drives , but with 4 different and device worked correctly with all of them. Sound also is very good with my front standart and back 3 way JBL speakers. Over all good for the buck

Great value

Got this when it first came out! Great for your buck.

ok product

Performed ok for a sony not great sound quality but makes up in features.

great value

This Sony deck is a very nice deck. Easy to install and sounds like an expensive Sony deck but at a reasonable price. I used this deck in my tour bus coupled with 2 Sony amplifier and its a party. Great value

very pleased

sounds great, Lots of features for the Money.

excellent

Worth every penny paid for it. Simple and full of features and a good price!

Great Unit for a Great Price

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 !!!

Awesome!

This is the best head unit! I finally installed it in 1989 Nissan 240 SX SE and with some subs in the trunk and it really bumps! The remote commander makes the unit easier to use and all I do is connect my USB Flash drive to the USB plug built in on the unit and it reads it easily. I always get compliments on how nice the radio looks installed in the dash and the installation was easy! I would recommend this to anyone!

Great bang for the buck

I wanted a double-din receiver to replace the crappy factory unit in my '04 Trailblazer. I was amazed at what this unit was able to bring out of the factory speakers! They still have their limits, but this receiver does a great job - I have been REALLY happy with it. Navigating the iPod is a little clunky, but it works fine. Some other reviews said the buttons were hard to push, but I disagree. The buttons are designed to pivot from the inside edge of the button, out to the beveled edge on the outside. If you push the outside of the button it works with normal effort. I can see how some people might be confused by the design, but if you think about how the button moves it makes sense.

great unit, awesome price.

This HU is worth the money. I usually go with pioneer for head units but my stereo system was recently stolen and had to get something more affordable. For the price you cant beat this HU, works great, ipod/iphone functionality is great. I have used my ipod nano, iphone (original) and wife's iphone 3G and they all work seamlessly. The unit looks great and actually sounds really good for not having my speakers on an amp. I have two complaints about this unit, the screen class is very reflective and on sunny days it is hard to read. The display is not able to display two items at the same time, such as the name of the song and the time. it can only do one at a time. These are very minor issues. Overall I'm extremely happy that I purchased this unit, i was worried that for the price I was going to get crap but it is very well designed and works great. The ipod/iphone search feature also works well, very easy to search by album/artist/track etc.

Angel

This Sony WX-GT77UI is working perfect !!! I don`t know what i can say more. I`m so happy !!! 10X

So far so good

This has been a nice replacement of the stock radio in my Toyota van. The price point was great and I have the ability to exapnd on it as needed. The seek function is a little cumbersome, but with the remote it is fine (the buttons on the faceplate are tucked behind the main nob...argh).

Awesome Head Unit

I really like this HU overall. There are a huge amount of features that you will never find in a stock stereo. The backlights on the buttons change between blue and green so it should fit in with most cars. The only thing I don't like is that the time doesn't display at the same time you have the track time on display, but this isn't a deal breaker...I just don't see why they couldn't have all the information there at once since the screen is plenty big enough. It sounds great, though, and I haven't had any problems with it.

Great Radio

This radio is really good. It connects to your iPhone or iPod and you can control it through the radio. Set up is not too difficult and once you set it up the way you want, it's pretty good. Plenty of power for small speakers. And separate contols for a Subwoofer. Great radio for the price.

Happy

Works well, easy to use, and I love the remote.

I like it!!!!!

It was all I asks for and more. I installed it in my motor home and have been very pleased with the reception, sound, and quality. Even in remote locations, it got great reception! I also like the front plugs for my tape or other plug-ins.

as luck would have it!

I love this head unit! I had it in the car 2 weeks and it was stolen! It was the most user friendly unit ever! Sonic gave me an awesome price. I miss it dearly, but my insurance company was good to me too!

high quality product

I have owned this double din for several months, it's design is classy and gives you the option of choosing green or blue for the button lighting, sound output is flawless. The usb is a big plus, and most importantly Sonic Electronix lowest price great value.

perfect replacement

I bought this unit for the price, I had no idea I could listen to and charge my Iphone at the same time. It also works well with other MP3 players I've tried. the only thing that I feel need improvement is the sensitivity of the volume knob, it's too sensitive, if your adjusting the volume and hit a bump in the road you can easily find yourself adjusting sounds or balance.

sony stereo review wx-gt77ui

Stereo sounds great. isn't lit up until it's cut on so the on switch is hard to find after dark but still a great buy. I have had mine for a few months now with no problems.

Sony WX-GT77UI

This unit installed easily in my '02 Accord. Interface is easy and controls for the iPhone are simple.

bad a** sony.

Bad a** looking head unit. everything works great! highly recommended. it's a Sony! duh!!!!

Good.

I have this In my truck and I can't say anithings wrong with it. I like this stereo very very much!!

Great Product

Easy to install, good fit and great quality. iPod can be operated with radio controls. Great value.

Easy Install, sounds GREAT!

Got this for my girlfriend's 1995 Honda Accord. Installation was simple and easy. It sounds great...much louder than the factory stereo. And it makes the Sony 3-way 6x9s I put in the rear deck sound even better than what the factory stereo was putting out! I definitely recommend this stereo to anyone with a Double-DIN radio!

sony wx-gt77ui review

I have had this product for about a year now, and I can tell you that I have not had any issues with it. It has proven to be a great investment, especially if your looking for a quality built deck that produces some pretty damn sounds out of it. Also, it just looks plain awesome. Overall, great product.

Perfect upgrade.

I replaced the crappy AM/FM/CD unit in my RV with this unit. I ran some speaker wires outside so we can have music while relaxing by the fire. The IPOD functions work just fine and we love listening to hours and hours of music with no annoying DJs or commercials. It more that met my expectations. Sound is great. With the added power output of this unit there was no need to replace the speakers. It brought them to life.

Good Unit for the $$$

I was looking for a replacement radio for my 08' Civic w/ iPod connection, you will need the purchase the separate iPod cable or that feature will not work for you. Install was simple no modifications needed to dash kit. Radios features are very basic but didn't expect it to be more than what I was paying for. The appearance looks nice installed if that matters to you. It definitely has the power. All in all it's a good buy for the money so if your on a budget I'd say go for it.

great value sony always good

I knew it that this stereo gonna be good because i had many stereo system from sony before and they alwaye been good,i even worked with sony coorporation in 2000 as a salesman for 3 years and in this period i bougth from them around 6 items many of thems still working to today,sony espesialty in sound are the best this stereo unit fit my dash very nice blue light is good sound is good i have 2002 honda accord total of speakers is 9 including 4 tweeter and 1 12'' sub (i got the kenwood tube sub with kenwood amp pakage) sound is like in night club clear and powerful,if you have double din place for stereo and your unit be the best without dvd buy this unit it is gooood,before this sony unit i had chinese dvd with 7'' touch screen it was sounding good but not like sony and i changed because the screen turn to blue in hot weather summer got is for $200 and sold it for $150 then i got the sony because i didn't use the dvd player, i like listen to clear and powerful music in my car

GREAT RADIO

Sounds great, good features, and I love it!

Great iPhone Receiver for $!

I've owned this receiver for about 6 months and it's been a great product. It's a great value for the money, by far the cheapest double-din receiver I could find that worked well with the iPhone, scrolls text, and looks solid.

Pros
- Great value, doesn't look cheap/plasticy at all!
- Scrolls iPhone album/artist/song text
- USB extension works great for keeping iPhone in cup holder and not needing to drill or run a wire through the front dash
- Option to control from iPhone manually or through receiver
- Green back lighting to match my instrument panel
- Good equalizer

Cons
- Buttons are a bit tough to press
- Randomly changes the play format to "shuffle"
- Wish it had nicer graphics or smaller text on LCD

Sony got it right

I bought this radio about 4 months ago it is nothing short of AWESOME. I am not even sure I need an amp anymore to push my 4 infinity 6032 full range speakers. If you are in the market for a Double Din do yourself a favor and get it.

Works Great, Easy Install

This unit wasn't available in Canada, and I didn't want to spend hundreds on a touchscreen receiver, so I decided to order from Sonic. Installation in a 2003 Grand Am was easy with the mounting kit, harness, and antenna adapter from Sonic. Only some basic soldering required.

Unit sounds great with stock monsoon speakers, ipod integration is seamless, and I'm picking up radio stations I never received clearly before. Only downside to this order was $65 additional charges from UPS.

Nice Stereo

I like this stereo for that is different and subtle at the same time and has 2 choices for color back lighting. All and all i have had no problem with it and really like it.

Great Stereo

I like the look, function and sound quality. I only have one complaint and that is that the unit can't seem to read more than 127 albums on the Usb device.

Great

I got this stereo to put in my moms f150 fits great easy to use and easy to install Sony does it again.

great value

ihave this unit for about 4 months now, so far im happy with the unit, and the price was great.

Great Value! Highly Recommend!

Great Sound, Lots of tone options! Noticed a Huge difference from my factory Head Unit to this one! My aftermarket speakers sound much more richer and fuller than before!

Pros: Has an (orange) dimmer cable. USB control.
Sub Woofer control. Illumination options (blue) or (green).

Cons: Not really a deal breaker, but the front buttons seem a little stiff.
Perhaps because it is new. Installed it just yesterday.

Overall very thrilled to have this in my '05 Camry!
Also is working fine with Axxess ASWC steering wheel control system.

Great Value Great Product

I luv the bright display and the sound quality is great at a price that everyone can afford. Thanks

good

I just installed this Sony into my wife's 1999 Camry because the stock CD player quit working. Installation was a breeze with the connector kit. The brackets from the stock stereo bolted right to the Sony and the unit bolted right back into the stock spot. It sounds great with the factory speakers and the IPod functioned first try. It will take some time to learn how to operate but she has the book. Overall, I recommend buying this. I wish my other vehicles had 2Din size stereos because I would buy two more.

awesome stereo

great product great price

YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR!!!!

Everything about this stereo sucks. The sound is bad, the buttons and the dial are really touchy, and it's way uglier than it looks online.

Awesome Stereo

I bought this to go into my 2003 Suzuki Aerio sedan. I love it. It was easy to install and sounds great. Way more powerful than my stock radio and too many features to list in one review. The main advantage is the ipod control. I have my ipod in the glove box and that is all I listen to. It charges any time the car is on so the only reason to take it out is to update the songs if I buy some new ones. The controls are quick and easy to use. You can switch songs, artists, albums, playlists without any trouble at all. If you are looking for a less expensive radio with fully integrated ipod controls I highly recommend this Sony!

Great Unit!

This is definitely a top notch head unit with many great features that integrate seamlessly, and along with the price make it a good investment for anyone looking to upgrade.

piece of cake

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.)

nice in everyway

This item has everything that I could possibly want. It had ease in installation with a good looking display, ext plug for my mp3 player just to metion a few.

Great product, Worth the money!

Great product! I would recommended this to anyone looking for a new head unit. Its worth the money, you pay a little but you get a lot of features. I guess there's only one thing about it that in cold weather the screen is a bit slow but I guess this is something normal to all electronics in severe cold weather. I've had it for like 6 months now and it has no issues its working great. Its easy to install you can do it yourself.
Overall I'm satisfied with the product.

Best deal yet

I installed this into my Ford F-150 and it sounds great, easy installation aswell, price beat all other websites... Fast shipping

Great product

I have owned several Sony head units and this unit is a great choice if you want a unit that has plenty of options. You can hook a iPod or other mp3 player directly into the unit via USB port. It also has a separate sub volume control. It sounds great in my Chevy Colorado and has worked flawlessly, which I have come to expect from Sony. I just wish they would have used the extra space since it's a double din unit, for something like a 6 disk changer instead of just a metal cage with nothing in it.

Sony does it again

Great radio for my Tundra. Harness expensive for JBL system. But radio sounds great with all the extras.

Great choice!!!!

I received this for Christmas,got to install it today in my ford ranger. It came with the harness and mounting brackets,and it was a breeze to put in. You will have to cut the lip off the top and bottom of the dash panel opening after you pull the old radio out, but that was it, it slid right in after . i used a dremel tool with a universal bit. I will get to the new speakers this week, but let me say i have listened to it on the old factory speakers and it sounds excellent, Cranks pretty good!! can't wait to hear it on the new pioneer's, You can't go wrong with this unit @ this price.i can't really add about durability,as I'm still on day one.

Outstanding product!

Installation was easy and we are very pleased with the unit. We especially like the large display and buttons, as well as the remote, which make it safe, quick, and easy to operate while driving. The USB and front panel inputs add important options for peripherals. It has way more features than I need, but leaning to use the basic functions was straight forward and intuitive.

Superior Functionability

I have recently purchased and received this Sony WX-GT77UI deck. I must comment that the waiting period for the international shipping of this product was satisfactory (2 1/2 weeks). Firstly, the appearance of the item is very impressive and attractive coupled with clear, powerful bass. Compared to the JVC KD-LH300 model previously installed in my vehicle, this item produces bass sounds at a lower volume at which the former could not perform. Installation was a bit problematic as I was not able to achieve the flush look I was gunning for but this point is moot. However, the functions of the apparatus were easy to use after a few attempts. Since I have only just received this deck my only suggestion is that the display could be made to itemize mp3 files into visible list format for easier navigation. Overall, great value for my money!

great double din

Very stylish system that looks like it should be standard in my f-150 chrome edition. Controls are a little hard to get used to but all in all a great addition to my sound system. Awesome deal on top of it all

Love it

Just got it shipped from Sonic. Exactly as described. I have to yet get this installed but the way it was packed and shipped - Its just awesome. could not have gotten anything better for the price anywhere in Canada !!! Thumbs up Sonic !! keep up the great work :)

Sweet looking, good value, double din

I bought this rather than a video double din and i'm glad I did. I probably never would have watched video in my car and i saved a few hundred bucks. The ipod support is perfect and reads without any delay jumping between tracks. It is a little slower loading from a habit mass storage mode. It did surprise me and read past all the other files on my Droid X to find the music though so that's sweet.
It was easy to hookup for a double din and doesn't do anything worse than any other stereo i've had.
I am running it through some 3way Sony 6x9s and it is crisp and responsive.

Cool Sleeper

At first glance, people look at my 03 Subaru Outback and think that the stereo is straight from the factory because the black double din fits so well. Which is great when it comes to theft. Once they realize it's a Sony and not a factory stereo, then I tell them that the music they are listening to came off of my windows media player files downloaded to my thumb drive. I don't have to carry CD's around and fiddle with folders while I'm trying to drive, I just click the search button and I can listen to as many different songs as I can fit on the thumb drive which is neatly hidden away in my console (not sticking out of the head unit and in my way) thanks to the USB wire from the back of the unit! It's Freakin' Great!

Most reasonable price I ever paid!

Absolutely couldn't find something like that in Canada :-(
Not super advanced, but good designed and greate sounding Working Horse. I mainly use it with flash drive and LOVE IT! Hovever other features like radio and CD player work very well and so far reliable too.
I bought it just about half year ago. And thanks to Sonic Electronix that also supplied all needed part, I installed that very easily. Now I just enjoy it.
Cost every cent! I'd very recommend it and this seller to my friends.

AWESOME !!

This head unit blows my mind and has restored my faith in Sony after many years of Pioneer. Awesome retro-futuristic looks. Easy to program and use. My 16-year old had no problems installing this in my 2006 Silverado Crew Cab. The required wire harness retained all of my factory chimes and features I like about the truck. Fits nicely in the factory double din slot. The oly thing that would make this better is if it had a built-in HD Tuner. Oher than that, no complaints.

Good unit

Easy to use and simple, great value for money

Nice product

I have had this Sony head unit in my truck for about 6 months and so far it has been great. The buttons are a bit hard to push in and is slightly annoying but I don't think it should keep a person away. The first thing you should do is deactivate the "demo" mode because that had me frustrated for a good month until I looked back at the book and shut it off. Other then that is has worked well and soon I will be hooking a sub up with some new speakers to really make the system better.

sony wx-gt77ui

excellent car stereo for the money. I needed a double din to go in my
'02 explorer bc a single din just looks ridiculous in that big slot. I was shocked to find a sony so cheap. after reading some reviews i decided to buy it and im glad i did. it doesn't have video or blue tooth like some of the newer (and more expensive) models, but i didn't care about either. it is hd radio and satellite radio ready, it has a usb port and is ipod ready, and it has an aux port on the front. basic controls are great, however it is a little confusing getting use to more detailed controls such as bass, balance, dim control, etc. The usb port is a cable that comes out of the back of the stereo and you have to find a place to hide it which i don't like. I would rather have a port on the front to plug into. However, all in all I'm very happy. It's a lot of stereo for the money. I don't care for some flashy unit that jumps out at you when you open the door. I wanted something that sort of "blends in" and goes away. This unit does that perfectly with its simple look and a feature that allows you to set the backlight to blue or green to match your vehicle. No skips with the cd player, and the tuner picks up great. Good stereo for someone wanting simple and inexpensive.

nice

i bought this cd player for my car and it works real good it plays music real clear it has to be the best cd player i haver owned

Great Radio, great price

Basic CD player. No glitches, no skips, reads mp3's I burn flawlessly.
Lack of individual controls of face blows (toggle through a menu), but typical for this price range. I'm happy.

AWesome!

This headunit kicks butt!!! I love it so much!!! Its affordable and does everything that u could want. makes my cds sound a lot better. It looks really cool in the dark too!

Bought a second unit

Received one for the Lexus (quickly shipped), very pleased and impressed with the quality of the sound, it simply blew away the stock unit.. I had to get another for the truck to replace an aging sony unit

Tons of features for the money, if i had a third car I probably would have bought again..really happy with the sound coming from this unit!

best value for the money

overall value is excellent, easy to install,.sounds great. Could't find a better price anywhere in Canada. Thanks Sonic!!

Good performance; Hard to read display in daylight

Great value. Easy to use(after reading instruction manual and practice)
Great ipod interface, we listen to books and music on my wife's ipod , my mp3, and sometimes cds. Our late nineties gran marquis rides are great on interstate and now has latest music interfaces.
Equalizer settings has 'vocal' setting which really helps my old ears with understanding the lyrics. Another electronic store installed mine for $50, They don't carry this model. Well worth the price to have it installed...lots of wiring connections
Need passenger to change ipod settings during daylight while driving; VERY difficult to read display in bright daylight driving conditions.

AUX on the left side

Only reason I bought this thing is because of the location of aux for my hands-free mic + aux cable. Interesting design but all in all good product

sony wx-gt77ui --- good buy

I bought the sony wx-gt77ui, because it was not to flashy as the touch screen units, plus it had all the features I was looking for. It has been an excellent stereo. My only complaint has to be with the ipod feature, it is difficult to navigate your ipod using the head unit through the usb port, I wish you could just change songs or listen to podcast by just navigating threw the ipod interface. The Sony is difficult to the point you just want to plug it into the aux port or just let it play where it is. Everything else has been perfect.

Great!

This thing is great and well worth the price. Only issue is it's hard to push the buttons slightly but only minor.

Great Radio for the Money

I was hunting for a radio that I could play music from my flash drive. I stumbled on this. It was a nice looking double din with all the features I wanted at a great price (great brand too). I have had it for six months and no complaints. It has enough power that I think I blew one of my factory speakers - great sound. I really really like not having all my CD's with me. I have about 30 cd's on my flash drive and play songs from there more then I listen to the radio. I couldn't be happier with this purchase - got all I wanted and didn't break the bank. (installed on a 07' classic silverado)

Only the best.

Great double DIN deck gives a nice OEM look. iPod control is awesome works with all MP3 players. Changes colors, beautiful controls. The only thing i regret is i bought for a girl who ended up being very scandalous, wish I kept it for myself.

Best HU for the money

Ive spent a lot of time and money on multiple cars installing audio systems. For my 07 civic, i didn't want a navi as it would attract too much attention, but I wanted something that would fit nicely in the DD opening. This HU has a LOT of nice features. For one, it comes with an equalizer with presets and a custom option. It also reads USB's and CDs VERY FAST. With CDs, its almost as fast as the factory unit, something NO alpine head unit has EVER done. Its very responsive, and hasnt had ANYTHING fail yet. Paired with a polk amp and polk speakers (alpine sub amp and powerbass sub for now) this system rocks you. With the windows up, they can barely tell I have a sub (unless I am in a garage... guess it echos nicely). With the windows down I am blowing peoples ears away, and with NO DISTORTION!!!!
FM reception is a little eh, but thats something with every aftermarket HU ive ever owned. Get this for the USB!!! Well worth it!

Buy it!

Looks good, plays great and, makes sounds incredibly crisp. For the value nothing is going to beat it. Very easy to use, you want the USB in the back not the front. If you put a USB stick in the front of a receiver it is going to get broken at some point.

Easy to install also, I have this in a 2006 VW Passat and it makes the sound system just perfect.

Sonic has the best products at the best prices, not to mention the shipping is fast!

Good Value

I just installed this Sony into my wife's 1999 Camry because the stock CD player quit working. Installation was a breeze with the connector kit. The brackets from the stock stereo bolted right to the Sony and the unit bolted right back into the stock spot. It sounds great with the factory speakers and the IPod functioned first try. It will take some time to learn how to operate but she has the book. Overall, I recommend buying this. I wish my other vehicles had 2Din size stereos because I would buy two more.

great product

Fast shipping, always great prices! I've ordered a few times from Sonic Electronix and am always satisfied. The sont h/u is easy to use and has all the features you need for everyday listening. Front aux port and usb input make listening to mp3 players extremely easy.

One of the best radio i own so far :) :) :)

First of all the price was great, The brand is also good and I like it a lot thats all folks

nice

I have it in a 2003 ford f150 looks great running 2 memphis audio amps i love Sonys control

Fits my 1995 Miata

Sounds great, fit in my 1995 Mazda Miata, which uses a non-standard radio size. There is a small gap around the top and bottom, which I plan on filling with a small strip of black foam. The built-in amp is nice and loud, stock speakers sound even better, including the headrest speakers. I plan on putting a set of polk db6501 in later, and some Boston Acoustics 3.5" in the headrests to further make use of this awesome radio! Looks cool, I'm glad I didn't get the touch screen pioneer I was looking at because the 5sp gear shift would block the display. Not so with the sony, it works great, installed in less than an hour.

She kicks

This head unit truly is awesome. It may not play pictures or video but has a classy look and futuristic style that almost looks stock but cooler. I have it hooked up to a phoenix gold 12" Sd sub along w a power acoustic stax, and polk audio speakers. The thing pounds hard & looks great and with a name like Sony how can you go wrong?

This is a great product ease to use and it looks good

This is a great product, easy to use and it looks good and sounds good.

nice product

decent product and good value for money

From a technical standpoint!

This is well worth the money. With a quick tune (using mp3s designed for tuning from a USB drive) I got this thing up and running with a Polk and Alpine amp (4 channel and sub)
AMAZING! best sounding head unit I have EVER owned. I'm quite surprised. I leave it with ALL EQ OFF. The eq works good, but it just sounds better with it off!
Downfall? Blue lights are blinding at night while driving. But hey, its a tradeoff in my eyes. Buy this if you need a head unit. If you can fit it, and don't want navi, this is the next best budget headunit! Sony actually built a GREAT product this time!
Despite it having a small volume knob, its easy to use. The USB reader is great for any size thumb drive.
The CD player is LOUD and crisp. (120db S/N!)
while only 2V RMS preamps, they do the trick.
has a line in on the front ( and i think on the rear)
Been running for about 6 months, no issues!!!

Sony Head unit

I got this to replace the stock unit and the LOC (line output converter) I had installed in my Yaris. Installed seamlessly and quickly. Typically I do not go for Sony stereos, but this one compliments the interior style of my car as well as has great i/o capabilities.

Pros:
I can forget my iPod since i have 4Gb thumbdrive full of my music.
Very simple interface
Great design
Remote has excellent distance
Features are very easy to configure
EQ comes with decent presets
Outputs for All of my amps (not that daisy chaining them was a bad thing :) )

Cons:
Sometimes function buttons are tricky to push, not that they stick but more like they just won't budge.

Sony WX-GT77UI

HAVE THIS IN MY SCION AND IT WORKS GREAT I LIKE THE EASE OF EVERYTHING AND SOUNDS GOOD

By robert on July 21, 2022 Verified purchase

Sony WX-GT77UI

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.

Still a little Weary about this Stereo

Shortly after receiving the stereo I purchased I started having slight problems with it malfunctioning. Sometimes when I would turn my car on there would be a fuzzy sound in the speakers but no actual volume. I would switch sources from radio to cd to usb (mp3 player) but the fuzziness would still remain. After turning off the stereo and the car and turning them back on again the stereo would function perfectly. Also there is a surround sound function that is accessed by pushing in on the volume knob. Sometimes when I go to turn up the volume the surround sound is activated instead and then I have to go through all of the audio presets to get back to the volume. The stereo has great sound quality and many great functions....especially for how affordable it was but I wouldn't say that I'm absolutely thrilled with it.

Good Value, Decent Performance

I installed this unit in an '02 EX Accord sedan. The install was very easy - there is a lot of room in this dash. I even had room for my crossovers under the radio. The Sonic Electronix kit was perfect. For perspective, I'm powering a pair of Infinity Kappa components with the head unit (up front) and some 6x9's in back. I'm also running lines to a subwoofer amplifier in the trunk. I'm more into SQL (on a budget) than SPL.

Overall, I'm pleased with the unit. While I've clearly had better units, they also cost 2 to 3x the cost of this one.

PRO's:
Decent bass management (high/low pass filters)
Equalization isn't bad (3 channel)
Gain on the Aux input is nice
It plays AND CHARGES my iPhone 4
If you're running factory speakers, the MP3 enhncement feature works well (but it gets overwhelming with better speakers)
The controls became intuitive relatively quickly.
Remote control was well thought out - I use it a lot (I don't miss my steering wheel controls).

CON's:
It has audible distortion at 1/2 volume and up (an external 4 channel amp would likely solve this).
It won't play Pandora over the USB connection (must use Aux).
The AUX input distorts beyond a certain point - and I am constantly up against this point (at 85 or so dB) and lowering the gain doesn't help.
Display is hard to see in direct sunlight.

nice deck, great price

This thing is awesome. love the usb for ipod or iphone. if you need a double din, this is the one to get. it's cheap and good

Great Product

Easy to use!! Brand New out the box . I LOVE MY SONY!!!

So far, so good

Have had this for a week so far, sounds great, ipod controls are great, easy to install with included hardware from Sonic electronics. I like it very much but some things that bothered me a little, only 2 line display, will not show station and time at the same time or Ipod info and time at the same time but thats really no big deal. Overall I think this is a very good deal, sounds great and looks pretty cool in my dash. Ipod sounds ten times better that my factory Aux. Input I originally had.
