Sony CDX-GT77UI receiver

For the first time in years, Sony has released a double-din CD receiver. The interface is a bit odd with its jewel-like round display, but it boasts a feature set similar to that of the flagship CDX-GT930UI receiver.

The new CDX-GT530UI model steps down to a simpler display and drops a preamp output, making it the most affordable head unit in the lineup with connectivity for iPod. This model features a front USB port for easy connection to digital audio players, as well as a front aux-in.

At the top of Sony's Bluetooth receiver line, the MEX-BT5700U model features a front USB port for easy connection to all digital music players, including iPod and iPhone devices. The unit also features A2DP Bluetooth audio streaming with metadata of a song, which means all album, artist and track information appear on its large four-line display.
