Recently we have had a couple of inquiries on the SONY splash resistant stereo. Seems a few went to Best Buy and looked into the stereos, and discovered that the Best Buy model is white (CDXHS70MW), runs around $300 and has no iPod connection. You can us a small cable jack (green ends) on the rear of that unit for MP3/digital music input. Though the USB connection is not on all of the SONY models. The unit at Best Buy is again White in color. The audio input jack is located on the rear of the Best Buy unit. You can buy the Sony system we offer on line and the head unit (Sony CDX-H910UI ) alone revolves around $350 to $400 with the USB port connection. The stereo speakers add more, and then dont forget to acquire a flexible antenna for the receiver. From there it is all just work. The remote is available at Best Buy perhaps easiest. These generally run around $150 (Sonys RM-X55M/Q2) and the install is plug and play. You will have to get a USB connection cable for iPod/iPhone and the audio cable should be left open and exposed if you plan on using that method. The iPod or iPhone cradle we have in stock and we are not sure of its availability elsewhere. We are sure it is out there, though a hard part to find. We do sell complete systems based on availability. Production needs come first and it is tough to keep ahead on product in this new economy with JIT inventory the suppliers are using. (Just In Time) Also our pricing will not be as comeptitive as those big box retailers and the internet electronics warehouses.
