Im in Orange County, so fm transmitters usually arent very good. I would go with an auxiliary cable, but my car dont have one! You would think the bose system for chevy would have a damn aux plug! No cassette or bluetooth either so its gonna have to be fm transmitter... I had a monster cable for my ipod and it worked pretty perfect. Trick is removing your antenna. Kinda sux if you like to listen to the radio, but I only listen to XM so I have a separate antenna for that.

Was just hoping someone would have a solid recommendation for fm trans since Ive only used Monster and dont think they make one adaptable...

Go to your bluetooth devices on your phone and tap and hold on your car stereo and go to options and check Media.

Re: Play audio through car speakers

I just installed this headunit in my 06 Mustang GT about weeks ago and it is AWESOME!!! Best headunit i have ever owned or even seen for that matter. I play Pandora and my mp3's on it through bluetooth and there is no quality lost through the bluetooth. Its pricey but can be found for a little cheaper if you shop around. I highly reccomend it to any one who has a spot for a double-din headunit in their vehicle.

Re: Play audio through car speakers

I have the Pioneer Z110BT installed in my Lexus Is300. The Pioneer unit does have blue tooth audio and the evo and the unit do sync but the quality is choppy and not good at all. The unit sounded much better with the Htc Hero that I used before. Any ideas on how to "tweak" the settings for better connection? Any help is appreciated, thanks.

Re: Play audio through car speakers

I use the t505 in the car but sometimes the static gets too annoying, and the unit picks other stations with static on them as well, when scanning for a new channel to stream to. Is there anyway to increase the power on the fm transmitter on the moto T505, or any other suggestions would be helpful?

Sometimes when mine syncs it is just for the phone, and my Evo says "connected to phone media" or something like that. I press the screen to open listen to my bluetooth input and press connect on the screen, the screen then says "follow instructions on phone" or something along those lines. Then on my phone I press to "connect" to the Pioneer headunit (under my paired devices). The phone then displays under Pioneer headunit "connected to phone media and audio" or something. Then it keeps connecting like that for a while and then sometimes it reverts back to just phone media. I suggest trying something along those lines with yours. Just keep playing around with different stuff and connecting and disconnecting untill you get it.

Well that is basically the same as mine, I have the Z-120BT, mine is just slightly newer. I think ours are pretty much identical though as far as hardware, just a software difference. AND, you can buy the upgrade to get the Z120BT software for yours. Mine sounds great!! Pandora lost a little quality with the Froyo update but that is something Pandora needs to fix. My mp3's sound great, even better than some of my mp3's on my ipod classic that is wired in to the back of the headunit with a Ipod/Pioneer specific cable. SO, you may want to try the Z120BT software update and see if that helps (if nothing else you'll get some cool new features and a couple new interfaces).

Re: Play audio through car speakers

I've got a 2007 SRT8 with BT and it only picks up the phone calls. NOTHING MORE. How are you guys getting it to work?

In the house? No problem. BT stereo/speakers work like a monster. In the car it's just a phone. No AUX jack on my radio.
