The ideal solution?

Also equipped with physical buttons, a USB port and Bluetooth support (but not the slightest jack), the system will be able to accommodate a backup camera but also an external amplifier. And these are just a few examples. Developing a power of 55 watts, the unit has been equipped with a technology called "Dynamic Training Organizer" presented as being able to override the engine noise. Audiophiles will appreciate.
