Default A2DP Bluetooth

Anyone using a A2DP Bluetooth streaming device like grom audio or something else? I want to be able to stream music and pandora from my phone, but I also want to be able to answer phone calls through the car system. I dont want to have to mount an external mic wire. I am hoping for a device that will handle the music and let the car handle the phone calls. Any recommendations?

The IS-F forum has a whole thread about it. It sounds like Grom is coming out with v2 of the hardware so I'd probably wait for them to release it first before buying one. I thought about buying one, but I can't really stomach the price just to get A2DP (which is really the only thing I care about). Hopefully when v2 comes out they'll have a little sale on it. https://www.clublexus.com/forums/is-...rom-vline.html

Thanks Zmon, I saw that infotainment device, but that is just about 500.00. I would really just rather have the music streaming than all the other stuff. Thanks for the heads up about version 2 coming out. I will see if I can find anything about it or when it is coming out.

Get a $15 bluetooth adapter from Amazon. It plugs into the aux socket and takes the place of the aux cable, only streamimg the music from your phone instead of pluggin it in. You can still use the in car bluetooth for telephone calls.
