No Need to Get Amped

MEX-XB120BT

You know, it's fun getting into a car audio upgrade and feeling accomplished after hours of work on the perfect system, but wouldn't it be nice to knock out part of the equation? Sony's got your back with the MEX-XB120BT stereo. Put this in your dash and you may decide those new door speakers don't need an amp after all - this one's got one built in.

Pumpin' wattage

Sony MEX-XB120BT Internal Amplifier

Yeah, that built-in amp isn't wimpy, either. Inside the MEX-XB120BT, you've got a full-on Class-D amplifier that pumps out 45 watts RMS. That's right, RMS, the rating that matters. Not MAX, or peak, or whatever buzzword that means almost nothing. Your door speakers will get more of the power they deserve without installing a separate amp. No extra wires to run, no perfect placement for that amp, and best of all, no extra money to spend. That's something to smile about, right? Right. We thought so, too.

Simple Pairing

Sony MEX-XB120BT NFC Pairing

Tired of fumbling through your phone's settings, holding down "pair" buttons and inputting passcodes before your Bluetooth pairing fails? Yeah, us too. Bluetooth pairing shouldn't be that hard, and Sony realizes that. Sony made the whole thing easier for all of us with NFC pairing. Near Field Communications lets you touch your phone to the stereo's dial and boom, you're done. No need to dig through menus, hit the wrong setting four times and say words your mother wouldn't approve of. See? Wasn't that easy?

Sony MEX-XB120BT

I recommend this unit if you are looking to upgrade your system without having to run a lot of wiring to an exterior Amplifier to produce power to mid range speakers. this is an awesome head unit. you will notice the power.blue tooth works great too! And yes ,you can leave all factory speaker wires as they are Plug"N"Play

upgrade your door speakers with no amp

if you want a fast easy upgrade. I'd go this route. if you buy this radio will allow you to upgrade your factory door speakers. no need for a 4 channel amp this radio is the amp. if you have bass and a bass amp but need to upgrade door speakers to keep up with your sub. this is the radio you have been looking for. was very stuck between this and the pioneer 80prs. love both head units but I run just my tweeters off this radio and my door speakers run off a 4 channel amp and I have 2 skar evl 18s. so I'd say I've been around the block as far as car audio goes.

Mosfet power in a single din

Highly recommend this receiver if you want some substantial sound out of your factory or upgraded aftermarket speakers.
Tons of adjustments on practically every feature
Sony stepped up there game here waiting for other manufacturers to do the same.

MVP: “Most Valued Purchase”!

This thing is the REAL DEAL. Got it Tuesday. Spent Wednesday night pre-wiring it to a PAC RadioPro RP4-VW11 and installed Thursday. It’s unbelievable! It actually lived up to the hype. I was surprised to see that it was the updated model. Previous models (XB100BT & older XB120BT’s) have a bulky fuse box with power/ground leads. The version I received has a conventional harness plug so, obviously,Sony re-thought the design and simplified the connection process. This unit is lovely and lively! The OEM unit in my VW sounded muddy. This BEAST showed its clarity right out the box with no adjustments!

I suggest investing in the RadioPro. It simplifies installation and you cut NO wires. I pulled out the old unit, disconnected the satellite radio, main harness, and AM/FM and made TWO connections (no SiriusXM now) and “Voila!”, crystal clear and powerful out the box.

Now, AFTER it and I got acquainted and I downloaded the Sony App...????!
This is arguably the best unit I heard next to my old XXV-05 and it’s $800 cheaper! This built amp saves money but will showoff majorly. Like that first review says, you’ll think twice about buying speakers. I’m even second guessing purchasing a mono block for my sub.
You need this!l It sounds so good it’ll make you wanna ‘cuss! LOL!

SonicElectronix has done it again!

Ample power

Needed a new head with enough power to compensate for top-down driving. This unit is perfect and size is just right for Miata dash. Pretty simple install, bluetooth, front aux jack make it perfect for connecting to either my phone for streaming music, or connecting to a guest device without programming bluetooth.

Nice unit with many pre-programed sound profiles (jazz, rock, classical, etc.). I wish it also had manual adjustment to simply crank the bass, but figuring out best way to quickly make adjustments.

B.A. Deck

Love the power and versatility of the XB120. I don’t understand why more manufacturers will not offer this kind of power in a double din.
