I doubt think you are allowed to call them Tranny's anymore
That isn't inclusive and doesn't recognise what they choose to identify as

I was given the same information from IA some 7 months ago when I asked after placing an order. But I just assumed that it would be FM and DAB + radio since nearly all new cars sold in Europe are DAB+
I'm being wonder if this is just a DAB radio! Do you have DAB+ reception in the USA?

Good question. We have HD radio here, which I believe is very similar to dab.. but if some knows for sure please comment. Btw, I hadn’t seen anyone post on the speaker system, but perhaps I had missed it. I’m hoping it sounds at least decent… though my wife would prefer very good.

Isn't that a typo? Shouldn't it be Neusoft?

After I placed an order I started to look into replacing the speakers with Rockford Fosgates. But after doing some research I concluded the OEM speakers may in fact be 3 way Hertz ( hence the high/mid/low comment). As Hertz are a mid to high end speaker manufacturer I thought I would park the situation until I have driven the vehicle for a few months to assess them. The other thing I need to try out is the USB connectivity. The wife has 700 - 1000 songs on a flash drive that she uses in her car. When we tried it in a PTO2 demo drive it didn't work. But it may be because half the stuff wasn't working in that vehicle.

Wireless android auto requires a wifi signal to attach. They make wireless AA adaptors. They run anywhere between 50 to 100 dollars. You can plug them into the head unit and then with adhesive, you can hide the adapter. Hope this helps

This forum is fantastic for the information sharing! Thanks a lot!
This was one of my disappointments: no wireless connection for Android phones!
Happy to see there is a solution available!

Definitely not a three way component system. They’re different sized coaxials with built in tweeters. Standard stuff. Boring.

Boring was the original sound equipment of my Defender…

At the time we where not using android auto but a direct flash drive in the USB. It may have been a file format issue
To attach a phone to android auto you have to pair with bluetooth first, then android auto using a cable for the first setup. If the head is compatible and you're using android 11 or above some vehicles will then operate wireless there after . But I don't know if the gren falls into that category till I get my hands on mine.
