Sony CD changer

I have a CD headunit which is said to have CD changer controls, so I assume changer compatible

This one to be precise

There appear to be 2 or 3 Sony changers available this one looks promising but I cannot find anywhere whether these are compatible with my head-unit...any ideas if all Sony products are interchangeable?

i got one but dont no which one,will look in the morning,ill give you the numbers then you could ask sony if it would work ,its a six cd one

Both units you've highlighted are compatible Vicks.

Cool, was hoping you'd show up as an ICE expert

May treat myself, can get the CDXT69 fitted for £130

ICE expert now i no your takeing the pppppppppp

That's a pretty good price.

Do you have an IPOD?

A Sony MP3...I realise I can hook it up but there's no where to put it in the coupe and I find the sound isn't that great - really quiet for some reason

I think Matty fits the stuff for a living...makes him an expert in my eyes

lmao sorry matty thought she was talking to me never seen your post

Yup it's my living I'm afraid.

Vicks it's up to you. If you had an IPOD, I haven't , I'd suggest getting that interface but you're a but limited with the MP3 player. Sound quality/level is variable, so one track can be just right but the next too quiet or loud.

For the T-69 changer, £130 fitted that's a great price.

Bloody hell Cowboy, up to mischief again.

i never go in one foot at a time its always dive dive dive,sorry to you both

Don't say sorry!

It could be worse, you could had said something like...

"that Matty looks about 12 he doesn't know what he's talking about...."

Don't worry about it cowboy

Without taking the ashtray out (which I did and then cussed and swore because I couldn't get it back in ) , there's nowhere really to put the MP3 player

Where is the best place to mount a CD changer in the coop boot without it jumping and also not taking up too much space?

Have you done the hack to increase the volume level Vicks? There's some EU reg about volume levels which means that all UK Sony MP3 players are limited when sold, but you can change it quite easily by going into the maintenance menu. I did mine when I first got it so I can't remember the details but you should find it on Google OK.

I agree that some tracks play louder than others, which is a pain, but if you buy the adaptor (Bockers will tell you where to get that - I have a memory like a sieve!) you get full control of the unit via the HU, and tag display on the HU too. 6 CD changer or 300 CD MP3 player...???

I've got mine mounted to the bottom of the parcel shelf in the boot, just to the right of the boot light. It's out of the way there.

My original Clarion is mounted in the same place - doesn't skip and is easy to access.

No hack done but it was bought in the US not UK so...It's loud through earphones, just not when attached to the HU with a cable I can turn both the player and the stereo up but I always forget to turn the latter down and get the fright of my life when I just put a CD on or the radio

None of this helps with the issue of where to put the bl*ody thing however so I'll probably go with the changer option

here you go vicks its kj the dj here lol

Ta cowboy...yeeehhaaaaa

Well I spoke to the company and that changer is on back order until July Anyone know any other online peeps who do fitting?

Me. But you'd have to pay a lot for my fuel.

Will they only fit parts they've supplied?

Yes. They did have another changer http://www.lowcostcaraudio.co.uk/shop/So...J/Autochangers/ but it's £170 plus fitting which is a bit much (although it plays MP3 CDs)

Hmmm that's an OK price but I've never understood the point of an MP3 autochanger...

No indeed, will be £210 fitted which is a lot

http://www.unicar.co.uk ... can't work out of they just fit?

aha! and can get for £81 from Amazon ... woohoo

i have a sony changer in the boot of my coop,looks like standard option aswell,doesnt jump at all and fitted a mp3 player sony head unit i got from ebay,all working sound also running a sub and amp with steering wheel remote

My HU has a remote, never used it though

My missus has a sony 12 disc changer for sale? she only used it for a month then lost the code for the headunit never used it since.
I`l find out which one it is.

Can she not get the code from Sony?

I think a 12 disc might be a bit chunky?

buy mine make me an offer,but you will need a new lead as i am not ripping that out might cost you about 8 or 9 quid

True it is quite big,twice the size of a 6
She never tried il try sort it for me, sorry her she has a kenwood now.

I then have to have it fitted however

halfords about £30

A second hand one?

yeh why not they will fit anything,well here anyway so you might as well ditch the idea of your meet and bring them all up to ours for a reel meet,and get it fitted same time

p,s foregot lmao

sorry its a 10 disc sony CDX 601 ?

same as mine.seems to be compatible with any sony head unit ive come up to yet

But chunky I think? The one I was looking at is definitely compatible with my HU

It's not that much bigger to be honest, and I can't remember Sony changing the design of their leads between the head-unit and changer.

sorry to hijack the thred but how do i get the missing code for the sony head unit matty?

Must be a black active Sony head unit I would imagine, a DJM510 or something like that?

At a guess...

hmmm .. this one?

And cheaper! IIRC it's no longer available from Sony, so they're probably clearing it out so if they've still got it in stock go for it.

No, it's more than t'other one

The three they have...

Ah sorry, I was thinking of our prices.

Is it worth the tenner more and getting it more quickly?

I would, but that's because I'm impatient.

Four more discs to buy though.

ye she thinks so, the face is electric flip down and is closed... she has the remote??? but not the paper work with the code on.
She bought it secondhand from her auntie

PM sent so Vicks thread stays O/T.

custurd look accross the net,i know theres plenty of codes avalible just by looking for these stereos.generic codes.
i had to get one for a mask stereo

Chertsey Fitting service is available.
Your NW HD3 will sound a lot louder if you change the sound setting to Line out from headhone BTW.

JV

Thanks for the tip bockers, did indeed sound much louder May hold off the CD changer, was looking at new cookers today
