Reviews of the Sony XPLOD CDX-GT920U (in-dash car stereo)
-
CNET Review
The Good: The Sony Xplod CDX-GT920U has a front aux input, a rear USB input, three preamp outputs, and the ability to add HD or Satellite radio control modules, which gives you lots of options for expanding the head unit's functionality. The interface and menu structure make finding songs a snap.
The Bad: Although there is a USB input, the CDX-GT920U doesn't natively support the Apple iPod.
The Bottom Line: The Sony Xplod CDX-GT920U offers many options for connecting to your digital music library and supports the most commonly used formats, unless your music library is on your iPod.
Manufacturer: Sony
Part number: CDXGT920U
