- I have a Sony A30 CD changer in my trunk and a hole in my dash!
-
- Local stereo retailers have told me that the new generation of Sony UniLink
- stereos cannot be used with the older 13-pin changers. However, a fellow
- at Sound City (a mail order shop) says he will soon be receiving a plug
- from Sony to connect the two. He did not have a model # yet. Sony has no
- knowledge of this, but the customer service guy I talked with thinks its in
- the works (unofficially, of course). Apparently the marketing department
- has to make a decision.
-
- I would love to buy a new UniLink head unit, but I don't want to buy a new
-
- changer for no reason.
-
- Those of you who follow the car audio press may know: Any rumblings in the
- wind?
-
- My fall back, of course, is to buy a Blaupunkt or similar tuner which can
- control my older changer, but I think their ergonomics leave a bit to be
- desired.
-
- I appreciate any wisdom you can share.
