Default Bluetooth Headunit - Built in Mic
Hi Guys,

I'm looking at buying a Kenwood KDC-U553BT which has an inbuilt mic in the headunit faceplate.

http://au.kenwood.com/Car_Entertainm...oth/KDC-U553BT

I'm interested if anyone has any experience with these and if the Mic sounds ok, or if I should look at another unit with a remote microphone???

Thanks Jas

I would imagine its will be useless if you have the softop on or down.
I have a pioneer head deck with a remote mic that can be located just about any where in the car. It has a cord about 2 metres long. It also comes with a clip that is the perfect size to fit on the indicator lever. You want your mic as close to and as directly infront of your mouth as possible for people to hear you.

Even with the softtop down people seem to still be able to hear me with a bit of wind noise.

This is the one I have. Had it for 6 months now and love it http://www.pioneer.com.au/au/product...0BT/index.html

Always need a remote mic, can mount one right on steering column so its in front of you. Also consider how many USB's and where. Bluetooth might take one, and you might also need one for iPod (charging). Handsfree calls are great (and legal!)
