    This was a great walk through of this Sony radio. I just bought the XAV-1500. Very similar. It's been an exhausting experience. Buying and installing 4 other (very nice) radios, it's been a lot.
    Your descriptions, everything, it was spot on.
    Thank u

      What's the difference between the 1000 and the 1500? Just installed a 1000 (best buy) in my son's vehicle but then saw the 1500 priced for less (Walmart). FYI, had to get an antenna wire adapter for this stereo to older GM

      @@louofm1I just bought the 1500 and it seems like the 1000 has Apple car play and the 1500 doesn’t. The 1500 has weblink which I really don’t care for because it doesn’t allow me to use Apple car play.

      @@Imperial215 FYI, not sure about the 1500 but the 1000 (with Apple car play) does not have a rear USB connection point, just a front face. I was planning on installing a USB connection in the dash, so that the phones could interface but was unable. Unfortunately will now have to connect it with the wired connection on front. Blue tooth is available but you have more functionality by connecting apple carplay with the wire. There is no android play with the 1000. Got the 1000 on sale for about $220 right around the holidays, at best buy

    • @Imperial215
      @Imperial215 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      I chose this radio because it has the usb and aux in the front. But I didn’t realize the 1500 doesn’t allow me to connect to car play VS the 1000. It’s funny because I was looking at the 1000 first and then went with the 1500 thinking it was the same but just a little newer

    Very nice review. Most just read specs and features but don't show actual functioning of the unit. We can read spec and features our self. I have subscribed as this 'How it works' review is so missing on TH-cam reviews of a lot of products.
    Would like to see how this unit displays MP3 folders and files for selecting music either with a USB drive/Media player/cell phone. Please add this to your presentation for future units.
    Could you comment and show if it can be dimmed (especially for night driving) or even have a screen-off while playing music.

    I want to power my camera with the reverse circuit but it would be cool to have a small button or switch on the dash that powers the camera when ever i want too. I think it would be easy, just might need a diode from the reverse circuit to prevent current flowing back from ignition into the reverse circuit.
    Ever heard of someone trying that?

    • @OURBENEFACT0RS
      @OURBENEFACT0RS ปีที่แล้ว

      You can hook up any number of speakers, but there are only two audio channels and one sub channel. So you will need to use splitters to connect to more speakers. For the best sound you'll also need a DSP to do time alignment, this head limit is fairly basic when it comes to audio setups.

    • @tomsiemerink8284
      @tomsiemerink8284 ปีที่แล้ว

      If you just have one sub and not two just connect only one of the ports and turn the sub up 6 dB. if not use a splitter and again turn the sub up 6dB. The 6dB rule is because normally the sound from left and right would add up but since you're splitting the signal or just using one you'll have to compensate for it not adding up. If you have two subs just split the signal and connect both. In most music except classical it won't matter much because most low end Is mono anyway.
