The step up from this is the CMT-HX7BT adds satellite-radio readiness and a digital amplifier for 50W of power.

And then there's the CMT-DH7BT, which also features DVD playback. The three systems will launch in April for between $150 to $300.

A wireless boombox, the ZS-BT1 has also been added to Sony's range. With A2DP and Audio/Video remote control profile it plays both CDs and digital music from wired or wireless devices.

Features include front-loading CD slot, 10-button remote control, and 30 radio station presets. It will be released in August for around $150.

Finally, there's Sony's new AM/FM radio and CD player with Bluetooth, the MEX-BT2500 head unit. It facilitates hands-free phone calls, MP3 CD playback, and Bluetooth audio streaming from digital music players.

It's compatible with up to five different phones, and has an integrated microphone behind the faceplate.
