The Sony MEX-BT4050U<\/a><\/strong> is a\u00a0brilliant\u00a0Hands-Free Bluetooth Head-Unit that has USB iPod\/Phone Control and also a Built-In Mic!<\/p>\n

I feel the built-in Mic is a great option since not everyone wants to run a Mic from the Head-Unit to your steering\u00a0column or rear-vison mirror. You do have the option to fit one with the optional XA-MC10<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0(Sold\u00a0Separately) if you prefer an external Mic.<\/p>\n

The MEX-BT4050U has the ZAPPIN feature I love so much and you can read a bit about that on a previous review\u00a0Here<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Another thing that I love about this unit is its\u00a0familiarity, if you have used any of the CDX-GT or MEX-BT range you will find this unit a breeze to use.<\/p>\n

Overall its an easy to use Head-unit with lots of features, Sony\u00a0reliability\u00a0and at a pretty decent price!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
