Which BT Sony HU will interface with my existing wired remotes. Rmx60 and rmx11 on the rear.?
Really want it plugand play for the sleeve. The old system has the crazy xm interface, ugh and I want to add sat radio.
Thanks.

I dont think Sony currently produces a BT unit that will work with the LCD display remote. The DSXS310BTX will, but believe its retired.

You want a BT remote, or BT audio streaming?

BT streaming if I am going to replace the hu. But I want the lcd to work, I believe the rear remote . Rmx11 works .

That's mike, I will try and locate one

This is the one I want, but not sure the 60 remote will work.

The M70BT is a great unit. According to a sony source, it will only support the non-display remotes. Given how Sony wires their remotes, the X60 data is sent via a different cable that operates the display. So in theory, the functions should work, but without display.

Sony does offer a couple units support the X60 LCD remote but no integrated BT and front AUX only. This is my least favorite way to hook up a universal BT.

I can't stand the Sony crap in my boat, replacing the deck, remote, and RF remote this season with Fusion. Our other boat has Kenwood, and that was pretty decent as well.

It states in the manual that the rm 11 Works, wish they would come out with a new lcd remote that supports the new units.
