Sony DSX-GS80

Sony DSX-GS80 - Digital media receiver (does not play discs)

The Sony DSX-GS80 is not just a car stereo; it's a complete audio upgrade. Combining a digital media receiver with a powerful built-in amplifier, it delivers exceptional sound quality and effortless smartphone integration. With features like voice control, Bluetooth connectivity, and extensive audio customization options, the DSX-GS80 is designed to elevate your in-car entertainment.

Stereo and amp in one

Who doesn't love a two-for-one? Sony's DSX-GS80 digital media receiver offers the sound boost of a four-channel Class-D amplifier along with the satisfying features of a great Sony car stereo. Boasting 45 watts RMS output per channel, it'll take your system to a level once reserved for external power amps. Sony even lets you choose between powering four speakers, or four speakers and a sub! You can tweak that output with an impressive array of sound-shaping tools, including a 10-band EQ, time alignment, and comprehensive frequency filters.

Get the most from your smartphone

Get more from your smartphone in the car. Sony makes voice control a cinch though your Android™ or with Siri on iPhone®. Plug in your phone to either the front or rear USB inputs to access your stored music files. And if you love your Pandora® stations, Sony lets you control over the app from the receiver.

Bring on the Bluetooth®

Bluetooth is a must for easy, hands-free calling and wireless audio streaming from your phone, so of course, Sony built it into the DSX-GS80. You'll also be able to connect two phones to the stereo at the same time — one for calling and streaming, and one just for calling.
