I ordered my Clarion NX509 a few minutes ago. I like the look of it, plus I got it about $1000 less than the top Pioneer/Kenwood HU.

Got my Focal Polyglass 165VR's as well. Awesome speakers at a GREAT price.

Sweet!

Are you doing the work, or having it put in?

Got a local installer doing the HU, speakers, backup cam, bluetooth, amp, and illuminated kick plate. All the labor is around $300-350. It's either a decent price, or I'm lazy.

2 more days!

So, I'm still having 1 issue:

I can't get it so that the BLT370 interrupts my current source (DVD, Tuner, etc.) when an incoming call comes in. I have to answer it via the bluetooth controller, and then manually switch the source of the head unit to AUX.

Any way to have it automatically switch to the phone call unless I reject the call?

Using the Clarion NX509 and BLT370.

Maybe that's why you got it for about $1000 less than the top Pioneer/Kenwood HU.

Dear sir/madam, I am intrigued by your ability to provide helpful information and I am interested in subscribing to your newsletter, if such a newsletter exists.

Matt,

I wasn't interested in using the unit with a phone, so I never checked into any of that other than to see the big adapter that was needed.

Sorry I can't help.

All the other functions have been top notch.

I honestly can not help, you might want too look in your setting or manual.

It appears from the manual that it may be the TEL-INT (brown wire) that's part of the harness on the BLT370 that wasn't hooked up correctly. I'll get the installers to take a look at it tomorrow.

Just an update to my problem...

A bluetooth adapter can not be used on AUX1 on the NX509. Bluetooth adapters must be connected via AUX2 in order for the Telephone Interrupts/controls to work.

The manual vaguely implies that AUX2 is used for bluetooth, but doesn't say it won't work on AUX1.

Fixed!
