Thank you for your support!
That thing is ridiculous. Super modern. Looks great!
It is pretty cool. Thanks for watching!
It works dont have any speaker fade adjustment but from what i can see every stereo has speaker fade front rear etc
Just spoke with tecnical help soundstream , they say theres a error on the cables . The cable for the metra kit for SWC is the IR cable . Thats why people are having trouble . They should program as if it was kenwood on the auto search for the SWC on the 300c
I think I remember that now! This install was so long ago I can't remember much about it. Their tech team is very knowledgeable, Kevin over there is the best!
@@RockyXTV kevin Mann yep the best . I got his ext #
I have a '08 jgc wk, my dashboard has a short 1/2inch lip/hangover over the head unit space, would I have to worry about that top screen if it can't fold all the way back?
Reminds me of the old Kenwood DVD players that came out in the 90's.
Yeah, kinda'. Just a little more tech in this one though, thanks for watching!
Someone happy of his new radio
I had to take a second look at the heading. Over here in Ireland & UK Willy is used as slang, the same as you guys use the word "weiner". Project Dirty Weiner : )
It is kinda like that, gets attention and laughs. It's a play on the Willys Wheeler edition Jeep. Thanks for watching!
Did your apps come with it?? Like Spotify and youtube???
Hi bud got one of these now, it wont hold its memory though do you have any ideas why?
Is it possible to install this gorgeous unit on my semi truck 2019 Volvo VNL760?? please let me know cause i want it so badly
how's the radio holding up, do you still recommend? have you ran into any problems?
I would still recommend it. Soundstream has resealed some updates that you can download to an SD card and put it in the radio to update the software, I thought that was cool. Thanks for watching!
Any problems with it so far? What about when you hit a bu.p or a pothole with the screens open any shaking?
No big time movement as of yet. The screens are held pretty tight in place. Thanks for watching!
Thanks for reply, 👍
Is it still running strong???
Sitting head on with it, it looks good. Looking at it from the side , it looks putrid. And the screens are too thick. Looks like a prototype
I honestly though the same thing, I'm waiting on a version 2.0 or to see if this is the final product because I did get this before it was released for sale. Thanks for watching!
I have the same stereo but the top screen sometimes looks fuzzy any suggestions on how to fix that.
I just got a brand new one but wont power up im hopping to re wire it and see how i go
Ok so my OEM deck is shot it goes black and starts to flicker, I would like to replace it with an aftermarket head unit, but I am confused as that what all I need to install the aftermarket deck. I do have steering wheel controls and the hands free phone I would like to keep. It's a 2014 Jeep wrangler with the Sirius flat screen deck. Any help would be great thanks.
I don't know if I missed it in the video. Does this unit have a park brake safety wire for video viewing in motion?
It does have the safety, but it's the old "non-technical" type. All you have to do is wire the "safety" wire to a ground and the video function will work at all times, but always remember to be responsible when watching videos! Thanks for watching!
How did you wire the stereo for steering wheel controls and the back up camera?
I've been watching videos but no one actually put the backup or front view camera in the videos. Was that tested? Does it work with that feature?
I did not test this unit with cameras as of yet. The other Soundstream unit I installed (VRN-75HB) in project Renegade works with cameras. Sorry I couldn't answer your question, thanks for watching though!
How did you connect you phone i have no luck doing any of it for the past several days same issues please help
There have been a few updates to the firmware of this unit, and I have a very old phone, so your best bet is to give tech support a call. They are very helpful, thanks for watching!
Great Video! Thats a awesome head unit I think I need to get one one those for my cummins!!!
It is pretty nice. My only issue is that Jeep puts their radio up really high on the dash, this makes the top screen of this unit sit up pretty high. No higher than a stick-on GPS I guess, so it's not really that bad. It is a really cool unit though, thanks for checking out the video Chad!
Rocky X TV hello my friend i was wondering if you needed a special wiring harness for the vehicle type to install?
Why does your engine need a dual touchscreen head unit?
It looks kind of bulky and crappy until you open the dual screen, then it's like, "holy crap that's awesome!"
Are the Nav and Google Maps separate, or is Google Maps the nav system? How do you like everything else on it so far?
(nice edit by the way)
It has its own Nav built in, but you can use Google Maps, MapQuest or any other app that works on your phone because of the phone link feature. So far I like a lot of the features, I'm still getting familiar with some stuff, it has a lot of stuff to mess with. I do agree that it looks bulky when closed. Thanks for checking out the video Trev!
Do you like this head unit? Is it as bad as people say it is with all the issues? If you have voice control within your car factory unit will it be compatible with this unit?
It's a pretty cool unit, I don't think you would be able to keep your voice controls though. I know it has steering wheel controls, but nothing that I know of for voice commands. Thanks for watching!
Rocky X TV best buy thinks id be able to keep them but if you think about it... I mean the voice commands uses the software with the factory radio right? What would that button be useful for without voice commands?
You are correct, the voice command software is in the radio, I'm pretty sure. As for the button... most likely it would become useless or you could possibly assign it to do something else. That part depends on how well the new radio and SWC module communicate. I set mine up with just tracking + & - and volume + & -
Rocky X TV mmeeehhh that kinda sucks :/
Hey rocky would this fit a bmw 335i without idrive the stereo is like half an inch deep under the climate vents i am curious to know how far out the unit is and how far from the double din adapter thr top screen is i dont want to buy the product and then find my top screen not openning because it hits the air vents! Please help
Sorry I can't say if it will fit or not for sure, but I can say that it does sit out a little further than normal DD units. The screens are also adjustable, you can set the angle to one of three or four different preset angles. I can also say that the air (hot or cold) from the vents don't seem to bother the screen at all. Again, sorry I couldn't give you a yes or no answer on the fitment.
Do you still have this stereo? Hold up good
I honestly didn't run this head unit for very long after the video. I took that Jeep through some conditions that wouldn't be favorable for the head unit, so I took it out. I still have it in a box somewhere.
Sorry I couldn't answer your question, but thanks for watching!
@@RockyXTV no worries thanks for responding
i like the design, would love to see this with some GPS / . Car spec apps installed. my 2ouble Din plate is very low (knee height) so i think it would fit perfectly.
This has GPS, not sure who it's powered by, but it works great! Thanks for watching!
If only it had Apple CarPlay then it would be perfect
Is this fit for Audi A3 sportback 2009??
You wouldn't happen to still have this unit and not be using it would you?
What about the steering wheel controls did you try and connect those?
I did that in a separate video, They work just fine. Thanks for watching!
@@RockyXTV what wire did you tap on the radio ? Was it the IR cable or which one?
i wonder how a back camera connected to this would look
Will this fit a 2007 Lexus IS250?
It looks like it will, but a bracket/face plate and a wiring harness is needed. This is the part that I'm told is needed to install an aftermarket radio in the 06-13 Lexus IS series cars - amzn.to/2QwxINj Thanks for watching!
What wire did you tap on the radio for the axxces interface for steering wheel controls
This could be different for different years of the wrangler due to the different stereo systems, but in my case I have the NON NAV, NON Amplified system. I think it's called the Uconnect 730, NOT the 730N or 730 with Alpine system. If your's is the same as mine it should be the Pink wire from the Axxess module to Pin #13 on your radio harness and the Blue/w Pink stripe from the Axxess module to Pin #2 on your radio harness. I hope that is the info you are looking for, if you need more help you can go over to the Axxess website and get vehicle specific wiring diagrams that have pictures of all the wiring. Thanks for watching!
Still trying to figure it out . The cables from the radio dont specificate a cable for swc!
What radio do you have? Most aftermarket radios use a brown and a brown/w white stripe for swc. Some also just have a plug, it looks like a headphone jack.
Hey Rocky! I have a jk 2012. This video inspired me in purchasing this unit. Do you suggest it? I'm quite skeptical about the motor of the dual screens not working also the quality of the sound. I'm just debating in getting this or Seicane Tablet 10.2 inch.
I've been running another Soundstream for around 2 years now and haven't had any issues with the motors (VRN-75HB). I've been contacted by Seicane multiple times. They want me to do a review and install of their product, but they want me to pay over $90.00 in shipping, and they want final say in the editing of the video. I can't say one is better than the other, sorry I couldn't give you more info.
Thanx for answering Buddy, Last thing , how is the quality of the soundstream? I have the Alpine stock speaker system with sub...does it plug n play?
Looking forward to your video on Seicane.
As for plug and play you would have to go to somewhere like Crutchfield.com and inter your info. They can tell you what adapter/interface you'll need, most likely it will be a PAC brand interface.
I think the SQ is really good, but you have to remember I'm running 2 sets of component speakers and using 2 amps and 2 subs. I can't really speak for the SQ with the head unit by itself as I've always installed them with new speakers and amps all at the same time.
Thankx Rocky!
does this radio support OBD?
Sorry, it does not. Thanks for watching!
Pretty awesome. What did you do with your old stock stereo? What would you want for it
Thanks! The OE radio is in a box, but someone called dibs on it already. That's IF I get rid of it, I'm a Jeep parts hoarder haha!
i cant get my adroid to link to it do you have to have a certain usb cable or app?
Just a regular USB cable is fine. I had the same issue, here's what you have to do. Go into SETTINGS on your phone, find the ABOUT DEVICE section. Find the BUILD NUMBER and tap on it 7 times, your phone will then say DEVELOPER MODE ON. You will then have a bunch of new DEVELOPER options in your phones settings, one will be ALLOW USB DEBUGGING, DEBUG USB or something along those lines. Try the phone connect again and it should pop up with a QR/Barcode you can scan, that will take you to a website that has the app you need, the app isn't available on the google app store for some reason. I hope this helps, thanks for watching, and don't forget to subscribe to keep up on all the new videos! Thanks again!
Rocky X TV
So I got the code and the app but when I try to hit phone link it does the same thing where it says it can't connect to my MOB
Do you think I can get it to fit in a 2011 Camaro ?
Hmmm... I honestly don't know. Are any of your climate controls built into your factory unit?
@@RockyXTV yes they are
@@Retail_Rob757 I don't think you would be able to do the swap then. This unit would keep all your steering wheel controls, USB outlets, Bluetooth stuff, but not climate controls.
Can you adjust the angles of the screens when they are both open?
You can adjust them through 3 or 4 different positions. Thanks for watching!
Good install. Its different but man that is ugly in that dash when its closed. Ipad and the Alpine looks much cleaner.
I agree, it does not fit the Jeep JK dash all that well, but I've seen it in other applications where it looked good. Thanks for watching!
Will this fit in a 4door 2010 wrangler??
With the correct mounting kit yes. This unit will stick out of the dash a little, this is because of the dual screen mechanisms.
Hi Rocky. Are you able to point me in the right direction for the mount? Link.. Thank you for your help, I've been searching but can't find anything.
Here is a link to the kit I used - goo.gl/BisWc9 You can also find it in my Amazon storefront under Jeep Wrangler JK parts - www.amazon.com/shop/rockyxtv Thanks for watching!
Awesome, thank you Rocky. Great job on the video btw..
Can you make both screen mirror the same thing??
I have not installed the new update on this yet so I can only answer for the original software. The screens have to be 2 different things, they can't mirror or run the same app, but like I said there's an update released for this radio so maybe? Thanks for watching!
Rocky X TV have you updated the unit? Would like to known if can mirror both screen. Thank you so much
@@RockyXTV can you make a video updating the unit
I was planning on making that video soon as they just released a new update for this unit. Soundstream uploaded a very basic "how-to" video. This may help you out, thanks for watching! czcams.com/video/f-Zjy7S9Qls/video.html
can you switch both screens, it will be great to play videos for the kids on the upper screen and put the phone controls in the bottom one. hope it s iphone compatible. does it come come with all the wiring necessary or you bought that separately. would it fit my ram 1500 2015 unit or i will need a different dash install kit and wire harness.
the video is great and i really want one. thank you for taking the time to do it.
You do have to buy an install kit (harness and mounting brackets) You can change the screens around, but you are limited to what each screen can do, only some features can be used on the top and some on bottom, but some can go either place. Thanks for watching!
thanks for the reply
I know this is alil off topic. As a jeep liberty owner do u know where I can find the clips that hold the radio dash kit
I'm not quite sure, let me look into it. Thanks for watching!
Rocky X TV I looked all over I had to buy a oem dash kit to get 4 new once
I thought u may know because you look pretty good at tracking down parts
The sound stream radio will that fit the jeep liberty I have mine set up for a 2 din I want to upgrade
I have a 6.2" in there now
How does it work with an iPhone?
Have not gotten to test it with an iPhone yet, I imagine the Bluetooth would be no issue, not 100% sure about the Phone Link feature yet. If I get the chance to test it with an iPhone I will let you know how it works out. Thanks for watching and don't forget to subscribe to keep up on all the new videos and products, thanks again!
@@RockyXTV any update on an iPhone yet?
@@JayJayNed I honestly have not been able to do any testing with this head unit as I am in the middle of relocating. I do know that this unit did receive a new software/firmware update not to long ago, so this may or may not help with iPhone users. Sorry I couldn't really answer your question, but thanks for watching!
Well it opens and closes.... at the end of the day it's still soundstream
Thanks for watching!
Rocky X TV well keep us posted and let us know if you like the radio a month or two from now
Will do! I didn't want to go over a lot with this unit in the video until I put some miles on it. Should have some long term product update videos coming up soon on quite a few different products.
Rocky X TV right on!
so does it still work?
One more thing how's the sound quality is it really 300w x4 channel
Sound quality is great! It is 300 watts peak, so not really 300 watts. Thanks for watching!
Can I watch two movies at the same damn time?
Haha, nope!
If u bypass it yes u can
Cool Radio, can I get a $1 for every time you took off that dash, I'm sure you can do it with your eyes closed lol
That dash has been off a time or two! Thanks for watching!
rocky my good man. that is so sweet, but way too much for me brother. erik wva jeep community
Thanks for checking it out!
Meu sonho kkk
its look disgusting.
