Sony MEX-BT5000 Detailed description
Mobile and music on the moveThe ultimate hands free solutionDrive & wireless: the MEX-BT5000 Bluetooth in-car tuner is meant for people on the move. Hands free phone calls are more convenient. In addition, you can access your music.

Introducing the MEX-BT5000When it comes to making calls, accessing phone numbers or playing music, the MEX-BT5000 in-car tuner can become the centre of operations.

The MEX-BT5000 means no more fiddling around with wires and connections, no more straining to hear calls or music.

Truly mobile musicShow the MEX-BT5000 a Bluetooth music player or a music-enabled mobile phone, like the Sony Ericsson W950 Walkman phone, and you can skip through your favourite tracks.

The audio quality is exemplary. That’s because the MEX-BT5000 is one of the few Bluetooth in-car tuners available on the market today that support music streaming technology A2DP, which allows you to transfer stereo music with the same quality as a CD over Bluetooth. So, ensure your Bluetooth music player or mobile phone offers A2DP technology to enjoy seamless music transfer and excellent CD quality.

What’s more, the MEX-BT5000 uses Sony pioneering DRIVE-S HX technology which gives you total sound clarity and definition. The tuner features the Sony Dynamic Soundstage Organiser and S-MOSFET power stage so your car will be filled with loud and clear music whatever type of road you are travelling on.

You can also access your music whatever the format – MP3, WMA, ATRAC or even a good old fashioned CD.

(*Drive-S HX, BBE MP, DSO, etc. in the CD Mechadeck do not support streaming music from Bluetooth mobile phone or portable audio device.)

Calls made easyThe MEX-BT5000 in-car tuner simplifies the task of making hands free calls.

Because the MEX-BT5000 uses Bluetooth wireless technology, it can instantly link to any enabled mobile phone. You don’t even have to take your phone out of your pocket, let alone juggle with wires or a dock.

It’s just as easy to access all the data you have got stored on your phone too. The Bluetooth OPP (Object Push Protocol) means you can transfer all the important details over to the tuner, giving you access to your phone book contacts. And with six speed-dial entries, it is possible to dial and talk on the go.

Conversations made clearThe MEX-BT5000 also employs the very best voice enhancement technology so that the calls you make are clear and understandable at both ends. The tuner has a built-in microphone in the front panel so there’s no need for messing around with any external wires.

Of course, you don’t want to find yourself shouting or moving closer to the tuner, but that’s not necessary thanks to the tuner’s integrated noise and echo reduction signal processing.

The MEX-BT5000 has a full-motion fluorescent display so it’s easy to read display information like station, artist, track, caller ID and phonebook details.

It also has an infrared Remote Commander giving you easy access to all the key features Details:
