I am sure this product is fine..... but,
This review is from: Sony RMX55M Marine Wired Remote Control (Electronics)
Amazon listed this remote as frequently bought with the CDX-M60UI Sony Marine Stereo/CD player. I thought this was a very good deal so I bought both. Turns out it wasn't that great a deal. The Stereo itself is great. The RMX55M remote however, does not have all functionality with the CDX-M60UI stereo. I would estimate about 60 to 70% of the functions actually work. The display will only show radio and Aux sources. It does not display CD or USB.
I then researched on Sony's website and found that this remote is not recommended for the CDX-M60UI. Amazon... please change your "Frequently Bought With" suggestions for both the CDX-M60UI and the RMX55M as both imply that they are actually compatible with each other. The item came quick enough from DiscounsJungle, but came postage due!!! I paid for shipping. Why am I being charged extra? I am going to have to send this remote back and get the RMX60M which is actually compatible with the CDX-M60UI. I hope the next two transactions are handled a little better. UPDATE: I chose to keep this remote. After finding out that it is subject to a 15% restock fee on top of the shipping back to DiscountsJungle, then adding the $100+ payout for the RMX60M plus shipping, I decided it was not worth the trouble and $$$ to see the extra information on the LCD. After all, the important buttons work as they should. I will get the 60 when it becomes obsolete and is around the price of the 55. I probably will not buy from DiscountsJungle again. Postage due... what a rinky dink outfit!

This review is from: Sony RMX55M Marine Wired Remote Control (Electronics)
The stereo gave out on my sailboat and I decided it was time to upgrade so I bought a Sony head unit with iPod control and the RMX55M wired remote so I could control the music from the steering pedestal.. The first problem I ran into was that Sony does not sell an extension to the Unilink cables that connect it to the head unit. I had to hand wire one. You'd think 18' would be more than enough but once you start having to thread the wires through all the twists and turns of a boat it comes up short.. The second problem I encountered was there's no dust shield/cover for the unit. All my other Marine electronics come with some type of cover to protect them from the sun, dust, rain, and the general harsh marine environment while the boat is stowed. For some reason Sony did not include this simple yet very important accessory, I'm currently using a cut up plastic cup to cover it during storage. When I stow my boat the pedestal now reads Raymarine, Raymarine, iComm, & Dixie?! The good news is that the interface is great easy to read even in glaring mid-day sun light, the buttons are nice and big for easy operation while you're moving, and is very intuitive to use, I really like the functionality of the product.. I just wish Sony would have done a little more research into their target customer base[Boat owners] on this one.

I decided to purchase the RMX55M instead of the lesser expensive one b/c of the LCD option. I thought it would be great to be able to see what song is playing and to browse through my iPod easier. Well that would be great, except when you plug in an iPod or other USB device, the LCD only shows "USB." SERIOUSLY?!?! What's the point of it then? The only real benefit is that you can see the volume level... I guess. Save yourself the extra money and purchase the one without the LCD.
