Sony xav-ax5500

After receiving my new head unit in couple of days I was very happy with the service and communication with Strathfeild. I installed the Sony XAV-AX5500 into my Toyota Camry 2011 Model. The unit is so much better than the old Kenwood system I had installed 5 years ago. The touch screen is terrific compared to my old Kenwood in response and resolution. It's also user-friendly so my partner can handle it. The sound quality is so much better too. As I am a Tec I use both formats Android Auto and Apple play on phones. Being an Android lover I have to say Apple Play is definitely the best when it comes software and arrangement of Apps and look superb on the Sony XAV-AX5500.

Great upgrade for my older car.

Installation: This headunit is pretty straight forward to install. It gives you plenty of room at the back to do effective cable management. This is great because you need the room to rout USB cables that it comes with to enable android auto. Android Auto: I thought android auto would be temperamental, but it actually connects first time every time, which is more than I can say with a lot of new cars that come with it standard. Screen: The screen is very responsive and is easy to navigate menus. However as a nit-pick, the screen really could use a contrast control. I find the contrast to be a little too extreme, especially on full brightness. Audio: The audio quality is actually fantastic. I am running this with a full Rockford system. This compared to my older double din headunit is night and day. I can play music louder at better quality. The outputs are marketed at 55Wx4 and I actually believe it for once. (since most companies tend to overstate their specs). It has a great easy to use equaliser and sub control that I actually didn't have to use, from how good it sounded out of the box. (I didn't have to tune much at all). I typically hate Sony as a company. But when it comes to Audio electronics, they tend to outclass their competitors. (just do yourself a favour and don't waste money on their speakers). One thing I can say that damages my listening experience is lack of a volume knob. It takes a lot of getting used to and I personally hate it. But that is just the trend of newer technology for now and I am very oldschool.
