Radio suggestions

I would like a radio that has bluetooth, cd and maybe mp
capabilities. My hearing is damaged so I will be using stock speakers
(I can't hear "quality"). I would like to keep it it single din just because.
Suggestions? Brands, models and if an adapter is needed.
I went to Crutchfields site and was over whelmed by the stuff.
there auto select system wasn't working.
I have a 07 HB. with the base unit.
Thanks,
Norton

IMO, Pioneer is the best for the money.

the factory unit that came in my 2013 has bluetooth, and can play mp3/wma cd's. if you don't want to get the dash single din kit, and the wiring adapter, maybe look at that? otherwise, pioneer is the best, like silver said :)


for a stock stereo, it looks good, too!

^^^^^ I have the same unit as above in my 2014. I like the text function, but the stock system in my 2007 = better sound quality.

Old one was made by Fujitsuten, that's why.

...and the 2007 vintage head unit looks an awful lot like the head unit Toyota put in some Lexus models a few years before that.

Radio suggestions

Toyota have used many brands throughout the years... Denso, Nakamichi, Pioneer, Mark Levinson, Panasonic just to name a few.

Fujitsuten is the maker of Eclipse Audio

I was almost positive the 2012+ models were made by Pioneer... At least the one like in post #3. Not as sure about the 2012 L model without bluetooth/HD.
