High Voltage Output 5 V

To provide a high output to your amplifier, Pioneer has built a special High Voltage Preamp circuit yielding no less thatn 4 V non-clipping output to the preout terminal. Such a high output voltage means the power amplifier does not have to work so hard to produce sufficient gain to give high volume levels. As a result, even a low gain power amplifier can be used, giving excellent sound quality with low noise.
IP Bus Yes
iPod Direct Control Yes

CD Tuners with iPod Direct Control let you control your iPod directly from the CD tuner. An optional connection cable is available (see the 'Accessories' tab to find out which one).
RCA Preout Gold plated, 4 (High, Mid, Low, Subwoofer)

Thanks to the RCA pre-outs, it is easy to expand your sound system. You can significantly improve your in-car sound quality by connecting extra amplifiers to your headunit. You could customize your sound system with separate amplifiers for the front speakers, the rear speakers and a subwoofer. Combining Pioneer 's EEQ+ with the RCA pre-outs let you create the exact sound you want, with the focus on complete flexibility!

Radio Data System (RDS) Yes

RDS (Radio Data System) is a system for pro-viding information along with FM broadcasts. This inaudible information provides such fea-tures as program service name, program type, traffic announcement standby, automatic tuning and program type tuning, intended to aid radio listeners in finding and tuning in to a desired station. Note: • RDS service may not be provided by all stations. • RDS functions like AF (alternative frequencies search) and TA (traffic announcement standby) are only available when your radio is tuned in to an RDS station.
Traffic Announcement Yes

The Traffic Announcement (TA) feature lets you receive traffic announcements automatically, no matter what source you are listening to.

For example, if you are listening to an mp3, and a live traffic announcement is being broadcast on a particular radio station, TA will automatically detect the announcement, mute your mp3 and broadcast the announcement as it is being made.

Advanced Sound Retriever Yes

ASR stands for Advanced Sound Retriever.
Our ASR sound technology automatically restores the harmonics which were lost during the audio compression process.
ASR adjusts frequency response and sound pressure, especially in the high and low frequency ranges, to revitalise the density and presence of the compressed signal.
The result is an improved sound quality with its staging, density and feeling restored to the level of the original recording.
Attenuator Yes
Auto EQ Yes

Auto EQ is a powerful sound tuning feature which uses a microphone to monitor and analyse the acoustics inside the car. It then automatically adjusts the equalisation across the entire range of the music's frequency bandwiths to optimise the performance. In addition, it offers digital 13-band graphic equalisation for both front and rear speakers.
Auto Time Alignment Yes

D/A Converter Digital direct
Display Off Mode Yes
Graphic Equaliser 31-band
High Pass Filter Yes

When the subwoofer is connected and you do not want low sound to play from the front or rear speakers, turn the high pass filter on. Only fre-quencies higher than those in the selected range will be output from the front or rear speakers.
Low Pass Filter Yes
Loudness Yes

At low volume levels, low and high frequency sounds in music can be overpowered by ambient noise levels in the vehicle. Loudness control provides a one-button way to boost these frequencies and provide better overall sound at low volume levels.
Source Level Adjuster (SLA) Yes

Source Level Adjuster (SLA):Allows you to independently adjust the volume ratio between all of the headunit's sources (using the FM volume level as a reference), so the start-up volume between sources will always be the same.
