Hello,
I found an old Sony CDX-R77 and would like to install it in my Suzuki SX4 Sedan.
I have a few questions...
1. Do I have to use an amplifier?
It came with one, but it's heavy and bulky, and if it has a built-in decent AMP, I'd rather just keep it like that.
2. Will it be fairly easy to wire up?
I have installed an aftermarket unit before, but it was a modern unit and only required stripping wires, matching to the harness (color to color) and crimping them together.
3. How will the sound compare with modern unites priced up to $100?
4. It has an AUX (in) connection from the back (split)... Will I be able to simply connect a split adapter (already have one for my home stereo) and connect my phone and play?
Not sure I even know which questions to ask... It's a pretty old unit from the 80/90s so if there is anything else I should know, please let me know.
Thanks for your help!
