Thanks for your input man

I am happy with sound, no logic7, I have Hi-Fi, phones connect automatically when I turn on the car, phone is in pocket and I control everything with steering wheel.

I also applied sound deadening sheet inside front doors to hear more mid-bass. you might also have to play with sounds settings/equalizer settings on the phones.

I imagine there shouldn't be a big difference in between the hi-fi and logic 7 for connectivity... When you hook up your android to it what option do you choose on your head unit? Aux or USB?
Sorry for all the questions, I dont want to buy something to end up being disappointed again because this sounds too good to be true lol

streaming device detects phones as a USB device, you don't need to physically connect phones with this device.

here is youtube video

Yeah I saw that video a while back and I was skeptical because he had an iPhone and Idrive lol I may have to bite the bullet and give this a try. I'll email with the company I would order it from just in case it doesn't work out and I have to return it.
Thanks for your input I really appreciate it!

I emailed Boveeusa and this is what they came back to me with:

Tune2air will work with most devices (cars, motorcycles, home stereos, etc..) that have iPod integration. To know if your car has iPod integration you need to try to connect your device via the cable if it works then our product will definitely work and will make the connection Bluetooth.

For your car, we recommend the WMA3000B.
Viseeo compatible with all android phones. For streaming only. No steering wheel controls and no library support on the dashboard. But in some cases, depends on the car system, sometimes it allows steering wheel controls function when connected through viseeo using an Android.

You can follow the link below to order WMA3000B.

Due to variations in the entertainment systems of different models and different production years compatibility is NOT guaranteed. Of course, you do have the opportunity to return or exchange it if it does not meet your expectations.

Please let me know if there is anything else we can assist you with.

So from this email sent from the company itself it sounds like it's a hit or miss when connecting this with your Android. It basically comes down to the system in your car, which I've tried a similar product to no luck so I feel like this probably wouldn't work for me. Now it's figuring out what is it with my system that doesn't allow for this to work with steering wheel functions..

That's nice i am just wondering what this audio quality is bit rates and codecs.

ctuna · 03-31-2018, 02:31 AM

Actually the audio quality of these devices is more limited
by the Aux Input. If you have an Android Device it may have Aptex
which has better bandwidth if you get an Aptex capable streaming device.
Always better to use higher bit rates weather it be usb or streaming.

This only works with devices like the Tune2Air that emulate an iPod or USB device. They plug into the USB port.
