I use this in my 2006 Nissan Xterra and the quality is excellent. The only caveat is that you will need to crank the volume to achieve sound levels that you would normally get from CDs or Radio.

I haven't had any issues with the unit on my 350Z. It's the Bose system so I'm not sure how much of that is the adapter and how much of that is the head unit. The only issues I've experienced were phone based as my iPod and anyone elses phone sounds fine but my Nexus 4 required rooting, a new kernel, and tweaking to match.

Not for me. In fact I returned mine. The sound kept going in and out for no reason, and since it was brand new - I was scared that one day I wouldn't have any sound at all. I returned it while there was still a 'return policy' available.

What issues are you having? Does the unit power up? It can be tricky to find the right station to tune to. I had to switch from the default before I could hear my player.

Mine was purchased as a gift so haven't had experience with the new version. Sounds like a defective unit. Don't think they are consumer fixable.

I returned it the quality of sound was horrible. I just use the cassette adapter and get the best sound. Good luck

My roommate had this system last year and he played them at a fairly loud level the entire year and didn't have any issues with it. It sounds like you may have not had some of the options correct or use you just had a "dud" system. Meaning one bad system.

It sounds clear and the volume is average at best. If you are hearing impaired, you should look elsewhere. Hope that helps.

I contacted Sony, there were no reports of problems with sound!???? So I pointed out that there were many people having issues, but the only recourse is to send it in under warranty to see if they can fix it - even though it's a design issue, in my opinion.

hi there - did you also apply the firmware upgrade? wondering if that helps the noise further. thanks- andrew

I'm a novice with electronics, but you could try hooking up a pair of PC computer speakers and plugging them in to the headphone jack to see if the problem persists in the new speakers. it could possibly bypass the problem and give you better sound quality. If not, there must be a problem with the soundcard and time for a tech to check it out. If it's warranty, get a estimate from experienced tv repair before you take it to where HCL uses, I've heard not so nice things about their work, google them for reviews of their company. Sorry, I don't remember name, but you'll find it in some of the bad reviews on Amazon. See if you can better advise, but I should be pretty close. Sorry I meant TCL.

I don't know. I was unhappy with the general sound of the unit and just disconnected it.

There is no probably about the sound. It is bad. Sounds like music and headphones are playing in a tin can.

The unit does have a hiss sound which is not too noticeable during playback.I tried a few things to alleviate the hiss to no avail.

Mine isn't silent, but isn't horrible. Sounds like an issue to bring up with manufacturer. They might replace the unit.

It sounds like you got a bad unit. I went through several of these before switching to another brand.

I heard a lot of noise as well, that is before i bought a dedicated audio interface, like an m-audio m-track, preSonus, focusrite, etc.. If you're not using one, then i'd say get that first. I have no noise now at all settings. From -30db, and i usually have my speakers set at the +6db and nothing. i'm also using the 1/4" to 1/4" plug into the balanced inputs. If you're using an audio interface, then i'd say call customer support and get it fixed.
