Blazeman Posted November 16, 2008 Report Share Posted November 16, 2008 I have a Z1 modded to a Z3. What do I need to add bluetooth so I can connect my blackberry? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
stokedgsxr Posted November 17, 2008 Report Share Posted November 17, 2008 PIONEER NDBT1 BLUETOOTH ADAPTER I'm thinking of getting one as well, just not sure if it's worth the 100+ bucks for it. I have heard some people say background noise is an issue and other people with echo problems. If anyone has experience with one and would like to post up their opinions on it that would be great too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
djmixmac Posted November 18, 2008 Report Share Posted November 18, 2008 Echo doesnt exist for me. But yeah, it picks up alot of background/road noise. Its because it doesn't have the latest BT technology like noise cancellation or filters. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
stokedgsxr Posted December 1, 2008 Report Share Posted December 1, 2008 Just as an update to this bluetooth thread, I just wanted to say I have been using it for about a week now daily. Callers have not complained about any background noise or echo when I asked them. My car is in no way a quiet car (actually, its quite loud) and people can hear me perfectly even on the highway. People should note that bluetooth is actually not really that good of a wireless signal to start with, so if you hide the bluetooth receiver behind the dash your signal may suffer. For best results the receiver should be in line of sight to your phone Quote Link to post Share on other sites
supermixer Posted December 2, 2008 Report Share Posted December 2, 2008 I too have a Z1 updated to a z3 and also have the NDBT1 bluetooth adapter from Pioneer. I had the entire unit and accessories professionally installed. I dial and receive calls all the time in my SUV (04 gmc yukon) and people tell me they can hear me loud and clear - no echo or any complaints of background noise.

avic-z3_upgrade Posted December 11, 2008 Report Share Posted December 11, 2008 Its not the echo noise is the problem but rather there voice being low when they talk. They can hear you loud and clear but not the other way around, is what my self and others are having problems with. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

When I did the hard drive update to Z3, it fixed ALL the echo problems... Just sayin' Steve Quote Link to post Share on other sites
cgardnerma Posted March 9, 2009 Report Share Posted March 9, 2009 Just set it up today in my old 4Runner. Not a quiet car at all and I had the sunroof open. My caller said he could hear me perfectly and they sounded great as well. BT module is hidden behind center console and the mic wire runs up through the a-pillar and clips onto visor. Getting the mic as close to you as possible is key. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Strangely enough, I have my mic in almost the exact same spot as you. lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
