Is it misleading to call this an external "bluetooth" mic -- this mic is connected to the radio with a wire and not via bluetooth, right?

Yea I believe what it meaning to say is that it's a mic for your Bluetooth radio but it isn't buletooth the mic is very good and I use it all the time when driving

I don't understand Sony's thinking. Impotantly, this mic works great. But it is wired and enables use of a cell phone that connects to the radio via bluetooth. So it is part of a bluetooth system, but it a wired mic that you connects to a stereo, and when that stereo connects via bluetooth to your cell phone, this mic becomes part of a blue tooth system. I think this is typical configuration.

Yes. It is wired. There is a spot in tje back of the radio for the plug. I think its better with it though so u dont have to yell into the mic on the radio itself. Works great to me

The mic is hardwired into the head unit for use with bluetooth and ABSOLUTELY 100% necessary to be able to speak on the phone in the car. Without a wired mic, you might as well be trying to speak to someone from a wind tunnel.

This mic is not made to be plugged into a camera directly! You need the transmitter and receiver as well! I got this to replace the mic that came with my audio package!

Yep. Not using it personally but here's from the manual. "6.11.1 Connecting an External Speaker to the RAM3 Mic CableIn noisy locations an optional external speaker may be connected to the white and black speaker wires on the RAM3 routing cable (refer to previous page)."

Sorry, but I really don't know the answer to that question. Every time I use it, and believe me when I say I use it often, I have never felt the need for an external microphone. Sound is clear and crisp, as is the picture.

The manual just says mic and radio recording. I've only used it for radio recording.

The mic is external. The cord for the mic is fairly long so. Plan where you want it before you install the head unit. It works good. Also don't pay attention to the bad reviews. If your not going install a total system then the sound won't be fantastic. But why would you buy an aftermarket head unit and not install a total system. Mine works and sounds grate. It will see up to a 256gig thumb drive. Love USB bye bye CD's

This is not a USB mic...it has a broadcast standard XLR plug. As is has no switch you must disconnect it directly.

Yes, but not via Bluetooth. It only works when plugged into the controller, mic works great.

Yes, the Bluedio has a mic and works similar to a regular bluetooth ear piece but with stereo though not quite sound canceling clearness. And you get FM radio builtin as well. An excellent bargain though slightly larger ear cushions would help immensely.

Its a seperate mic that comes with the stereo and it plugs into a wire in the back of the stereo labeled mic. Hope this helps!

Mine did not come with an external mic nor does it have a place you can connect an optional external mic. It does though have exceptional audio receive. I find the built-in mic has great quality.

Just the microphone itself? Yes it connects to other things besides a computer.

why would it have an input jack? what signal runs into it- i thought he mics were wireless? but I'm sure it has an output jack to send the signal to your amp or mixer.

has both internal mic and an external mic jack. I have not tried the external jack though.

I have not tried it, but a mic with a mini-USB plug ***might*** provide external microphone capabilities.

No, it's a condenser mic that needs separate wired phantom power. It is a great mic though.
