pic of my new AVN
Purchased the Eclipse AVN6610BT from DON.
I have to remount it because it sits too flush with the bottom so I can't eject any discs.....
First went with the AVN5435
Then the AVN6600
Now the AVN6610BT
Screen is def. noticeably bigger.
still having issues with the bluetooth not outputting any sound at all. Has anyone else installed this headunit with the bluetooth kit yet?

improvements are bigger screen and capability of doing bluetooth. It paired easily with my phone...i Just have no sound coming from it.
Menu's are a little bit different....but pretty much almost the same as the previous ones...the MAIN this is the nice lower price.

Probably old news, but are those RCA inputs on the side of your center stack? Nice touch.

Your not the only one who can't get the bluetooth to work. I have the AVN5510 and I can pair it with my phone and it mutes when I send or receive calls but no sound. I can't figure whats wrong if you figure this out soon could you let me know. Also I thought we would be able to have some of the bluetooth features on the screen I guess not.
I havent had a chance to check it out yet..

well I had emailed tech support...
Here's what I wrote to them:
Their response:
Well...there's the answer as to why I don't get sound through the amped speakers...
Here's what I wrote to them:
I installed everything the way it says in the manual but I do not get ANY sound out of the bluetooth unit. When I hit the **** it is supposed to say "LANGUAGE". It does mute the headunit correctly but no sound comes out of it.
Here's my setup to get you to fully understand the problem.
I have the front rca outputs run to my amplifier to my Processor, which sends two sets of rca signals to my 4channel amp. The 4channel amp is powering my front stage "bridged".
I am running my rear speakers off the headunit (rear speaker out). The Subwoofer is running off the subwoofer rca output directly to the subwoofer amp. I get FULL sound out of the speakers using the headunit in fm/cd/mp3/cd changer AND I get full sound when using the navigation.
What did I do wrong? DO I NEED to hook up a set of speakers to the headunit FRONT speaker line outputs? (grey/white wires).

Hello,
You should run the phone audio through the back speakers since they are not amped. The Parrot adapter has a little amp that cannot be in line with a powerful amp because the input voltage would be to high and blow out the inputs on the little amp. Run the back speakers like normal, through the parrot adapter using the mute wire.

Really a nice setup dude. How accurate is the nav system, and did you notice any measurable difference between any of the three (navigation accuracy)?
Don, is Eclipse offering an updated HDD-based nav, other than the AVN-7000?

The navi is VERY accurate....better than the AVIC-N1 I had. The new 6610 has a 3d road feature when a turn is coming up...it's dead accurate down to the number of lanes and what lanes split off the highway.

For the HDD units, from what I read you have to rip actual cds..it doesn't rip from .mp3 format. Don, have any insight to this?
