I like it but could be better Great stereo but No music continuation after a call, have to hit the play button, no biggie but it'd be more convenient. Also there is no pause button on the remote so if you want to mute it you have to volume down. Other than that im glad i upgraded my old explod to this one. Oh and also holding down select to get to setup is a hard one to figure out without the manual. September 11, 2011
MEX-BT2800 Reasonably solid unit, easy to install works well with my amp and sub. The HPF and LPF filters work excellently and offer settings i didn't have on my old GT270. Wish they had a BTM button rather than a pty button though. The display is also better than my old head unit but its still not really big enough. Sony should have gone for a smaller font size so you can see a full title and if they had they could have artist and song title on the display in a two line format. other than that i have had not problems, works well.

Great stereo For the price this stereo is absolutely amazing. My only complaint is it will not show the title of the song playing on the screen. March 22, 2011
Loving it! We just recently installed this on Honda Odyssey. We had to order a few other parts to get the installation done. There are no complaints so far. The main reason for this purchase was the built in bluetooth and streaming from phone. It works seamlessly. I need to read from the manual how to switch between phones. Loving it January 19, 2011
