I installed these speakers in my 2004 bayliner 210 classic today, along with a new sony head unit. The system sounds incredible, even though it's only a 2 speaker system right now! The speakers sound crystal clear even at high volume. I have always had good luck with Sony anything, and usually am disappointed when I try a different brand.
I have had it for a very short period of time, and it is a very good unit, but, it's supposed to be a mount for the smartphone also. The problem is the App, App Remote is very limited, and the swiping only, is not the best option to control things in a car (adding buttons or areas is probably a good idea :) ) . The Radio and USB modules are very basic, no memories for radios, no list for files in the USB drive!!!! .... I really hope this App gets a really good upgrade. If the App is improved, this as a lot of potential.
Being the first time I had implemented such an upgrade to my car stereo I found it a little frustrating getting specific details to guide my decision. However, having gone on to purchase and install it(myself) I am very impressed with this receiver. Installation wasn't very difficult with the help of a few you-tube videos to learn how to take out my car stereo. Upgraded the speaker sound quality, doubled stock speaker output. It does what it is supposed to do, connectivity is a breeze, audio quality does not sound compromised even though it doesn't use the latest Bluetooth profile(4.0). The super fast charger in the cradle is amazing and the unit fits excellently with both my Xperia z2 and wife's Xperia z1 compact.
I have had these for just over two years, bought and installed in my camper. Understand the camper is only used a couple months out of the year on weekends and occasional weeky.... I just noticed that the cones are curling up, and separating from the surrounds. I have always purchased Sony products, but these are a huge disappointment in quality, hardly used, never abused, and already broken. A definite quality issue.
The plastic cone completely disintegrated. Went online to purchase replacements, and read multiple reviews with same problem
I purchased these speaker, 4 of them, Sept. 2015. I thought the radio was going bad because they were so new. It was the total failure to the speakers. The delaminated and deteriorated. I'm wondering if Sony changed the materials or corrected the problem. I do not like drilling more holes to change brands.
I installed these speakers in the cockpit of my sailboat less than two years ago. This past week I replaced them with the same model speakers due to distortion of the cones and separation of the cones from the frame. This allows water to enter the anterior of the boat. I reluctantly replaced them with the same model to avoid having to make more holes in my boat. This is a common theme in these reviews...good sound quality, disappointing durability. Attached is a photo of one of the old and one of the new speakers.
I never write reviews however think that Sony needs some honest feedback. Sorry Sony..... You need to step up your game. Installed 4 in a world cat 33TE To replace existing. One working out of four after 18 months. Just logged online to buy 4 more to prevent drilling new holes for alternative model and saw it seems to be a common problem. Looks like I have to drill new holes for alternative brand.
I use it with xperia z3 and after a month the cradle stop to work. The downloaded software is not working good with it, so many errors and the speech is not good.
These sound great when first installed but then after just over on eyear, Terrible sound and cone totally disintegrated from being exposed to just rain and sun, despite being sold as a marine speaker.
