I got this car deck installed in my car at bestbuy (JVC MP3/WMA CD Car Deck With Bluetooth & iPod Control (KD-R710) : iPod Control Decks - Future Shop ), and it's really good so far. It took me 2 minutes to pair it up with my iPhone via bluetooth, and it works perfect!

The one concern i have is regarding the sound quality. It sounds flawless when the iPhone is plugged in via USB, but over bluetooth, it sounds like FM quality (at best! - in reality, it's like 80% of what FM radio is). Its not noticable if you like the music on really low, but once you turn it up, you can really tell the difference in quality. No stuttering or cutting off, which is good, but just this quality problem. Is this normal or is something going on wrong here?

I remember the guy who installed the car deck at bestbuy told me that the deck has 2 usb ports, one in the front, and one in the back, and that he installed the 'bluetooth dongle' in the back, so he can leave the front one empty for me to use. I tried holding my iphone as close as possible to the deck, but the quality still sucks.

Anyone?

This is fairly normal with Bluetooth music transfer. You always get the best performance with the USB plug in. Leave er plugged in the USB and enjoy. It'll keep it all charged up too.

yes that is normal due to the low bandwidth of bluetooth audio
