What a coincidence finding this post. I just ordered this device and received it today. But I've started to waver on installing it. I read that someone sent their CDR-210 to Becker to have an aux connection added. On my head unit, it seems that the sound quality from a CD is better than FM. I am wondering if the aux would beat FM and perhaps go that route instead.

The Tranzit Blu has an AUX out port (male plug) already wired into the device if one wanted to connect that way.

Here's the deal though....Bluetooth sound 'quality', regardless of device, is not as good as CD and just slightly better than good FM. The connections though the antenna will sound the same as through an AUX port.

The most impressive thing to me is that the device pairs with my phone immediately. I have an inexpensive JVC head unit in my current Boxster. The BT works fine but takes a minute or so to pair every time I start the car.
