Media connectivity

Bluetooth® aptX® Support

The aptX codec lets you enjoy improved audio quality when listening to compressed audio over Bluetooth. This is done by reducing the bit rate in a way that does not affect audio quality or introduce latency issues. With Bluetooth aptX support, you can get outstanding Bluetooth stereo audio quality that faithfully reproduces the full audio bandwidth.
* Depending on mobile phone.

Due to its low compression, aptX is used in various digital devices including smartphones, enabling smooth playback of music from Android™ Phones too. Count on it for high-quality worry-free listening.

Enjoy Interactive Pandora® internet radio Anytime on the Road

The source unit’s Pandora feature works together with the Pandora app on your smartphone, so you can listen to Pandora in your car. Select from different song selections based on musical genre, etc. Pandora is interactive, so it plays songs while you feedback a “thumbs up” or “thumbs down” which is reflected in future selections. Song information, as well as the ability to bookmark Artists/Songs, or even create your own station, are supported by the Pandora App on your smartphone.
* CX305 plays Android Phone via Bluetooth.
