excellent head unit

This head unit does everything it says and works flawlessly and sounds flippin great. I highly recommend this to anyone who wants a lot of features for not a lot of money. The bluetooth hands free calling is perfect and sounds great. Would definately buy another. Plus the three sets of pre-amp outs make adding amps easy. Buy it ,you wont be disappointed I promise!!

One stop shop

I put a lot of time and research in for choosing the one piece of equipment that is not going to be hidden under or behind a seat cushion or buried inside the doors. I needed the head unit to pick up my calls and the Sony MEX-BT3700 (same unit, newer design), pairs with my iPhone 3gs quickly and effortlessly! I do have the Sony XAMC10 extended microphone and both ends are crystal clear. Plays my tracks, charges the phone via USB, handles my Sirius connect, and looks darn great doing all those things too!

Sweet

Can you imagine my 25yr old daughter buying a brand new 2010 Nissan without a radio? It already had speakers installed so dear old dad bought her this radio/cd/mp3/Bluetooth ready device.
Great sounds, Hands free phone. And she streams her Pandora radio channels. What else could ask for.
I easily installed it with the recommended gear from Sonics. It works just like they said it would.
I recommend it as well as this company. They treated me well and honest. Better than a lot of stores that are out there today.

Great features - iPhone compatable!!!

Works amazingly well. Syncing with my iPhone 3GS was incredibly easy. Button layout is simple, I especially like preset buttons for each station. The Bluetooth features work so well on this headset also; I can wirelessly stream music from my iPod app, the stream must be digital because it is crystal clear. The phone through the headset
works well also, although you do have to raise your voice a bit to be heard clearly. Great value for the price I think I payed $160 for it, definitely worth the money. The USB feature also inter-phases with my iPhone which makes it difficult to find a specific song - just have a playlist ready or put it on random, once you do this you cannot control the music from your phone, although it does charge the phone via the factory iPhone USB cord.

Great features!

This headunit works amazingly well! Charges my iPod Touch 2gen. I'm even able to change the song through the control, headunit or ipod.
The Bluetooth works well with my LG Versa phone sometimes I do have to raise my voice a bit. There's nothing bad I can say about this great product. It even blends in with my car's dash..lol

Excellent

I just got my unit yesterday had it installed within an hour, once i turned it on i was happy to hear this thing push my stock speakers louder and better than the stock stereo had, once i get my new Sony gtx speakers and 4 channel amp the system will be complete and sound great.

Pros:
Bluetooth (Integrated Mic)
EQ3 (stage 2)
S-MOSFET IC (better sound/less static/noise)
Zappin
Front USB
Front AUX
Optional Microphone Input (rear)

Cons:
None

I recommend this unit to anyone looking for everything but a dvd player/screen...
