USB input on 2013 LSV sounds terrible
I generally use my phone on pandora or my playlists when we are on the water. (I have the stock Sony head unit with usb input). I connect the iPhone to the mini-jack port on the front.
I connected a thumb drive to the USB port cord the other day, and it sounded terrible. My subwoofer sounded blown and my cabin speakers were muffled.
I have tons of music that I could use if I could get the USB input to sound good, but these are all Mp3 songs that I do not have on iTunes.
Has anyone used the USB port with good results? If so, what was the way you used it? It would be really nice to just have a thumb drive full of music I could leave on the boat.

Have used with both ipod and iphone with great results. My understanding is that you should also be able to use with a thumb drive with no problems.

I've run into the issue you are describing when trying to play downloaded music from questionable file sharing sources. I think it has something to do with the compression of the mp3 files.

I keep an extra white USB iphone cable plugged in and use that to play through the phone. It keeps the phone charged and IMO sounds better than using the aux jack.

I guess it's possible that you have a bad USB cable with some broken strands on the inside?

If its a Sony deck make sure DSO is off - my stereo sounded terrible, all because of the damn DSO.
