About this deal

Despite featuring a double-DIN display, the rear chassis is considerably smaller than traditional double-DIN units. This simplifies installation and leaves ample room for cabling and other accessories behind the display. The ergonomic rotary dial ensures distraction-free operation. Use it to adjust volume or push the integrated button to access sound control menus. Alternatively, hold the button to use voice commands. Touchscreen control is a wonderful thing, especially on this big 6.2" screen, but if you're a little old school (like me), you appreciate a volume knob. Sony assigns double duty to their knob, letting you access the receiver's extensive sound control menus with just a push of the dial. You'll hold that same button to use voice commands for your smartphone. Room to expand Néanmoins, la qualité de réception radio est assez passable, rendant le RDS souvent inopérant. Obligé de faire des recherches manuelles en conduisant pour retrouver la fréquence désirée. J'avais un vieux Pioneer de plus de 10 ans qui avait une bien meilleure réception (et je précise qu'il ne s'agit pas d'un problème d'antenne du véhicule, car j'ai testé avec ce même vieux poste, et ça marchait parfaitement). Le nom des émissions/chansons/programmes ne s'affichent pas non plus lors de l'écoute de la radio.

Speaking of that wiring harness, there are a variety of extra hookups and pre-out harness options that are included as well. This lets you make the most of the extensibility of the XAV AX1000 system without having to do a lot of hardwiring yourself. Maybe later down the line you want to add a couple of different accessories ( from Sony or from other third-party manufacturers, the freedom of choice is great) and you’ll find that these extras really make things a breeze. Multiple customisation options allow you to tailor the audio experience to your preferences. Plus, with the built-in 4 x 55W amplification, music remains clear even at higher volumes. Je l'ai pris pour son prix vraiment bas, même si en terme de fonctions j'aurais préféré avoir le XAV AX100 (voir 200). Au final Android Auto me manque quand même pas mal, mais tant pis j'ai resorti mon vieil iPhone pour l'occasion.Une sortie vidéo aurait également été la bienvenue pour sortir un signal sur des écrans appuis-têtes par exemples. J'ai installé (très facilement) cet autoradio qui a une puissance nominale et une qualité sonore très satisfaisante,même sans ampli et avec mes enceintes d'origine. Park your car in a safe place and start the engine to avoid a voltage reduction in the unit power supply.

Bluetooth wireless connectivity also opens up the opportunity to control and command your device through the Sony platform. Unfortunately, as of right now there’s no way to utilize Carplay or Android Auto over the Bluetooth wireless protocol. Effortlessly access familiar iPhone features by conversing with Siri. Control music, maps, phone calls, and messages effortlessly. Sony has been making very impressive digital media receiver solutions for a while now, upgrading the sound quality and entertainment capabilities of vehicles with aftermarket components, but the XAV AX1000 is a unique piece of technology in a couple of different ways. It’s not every day that you see Active Matrix screens being used in digital media receivers for vehicles, but the folks at Sony really feel strongly about providing the highest video fidelity and accurate color representation while still offering a fantastic touchscreen experience.Bluetooth note: Use of this receiver's Bluetooth features will depend upon your phone's Bluetooth capabilities. Learn more in our article explaining Bluetooth profiles. If you have a rear camera installed, view its feed through the screen with customisable guidelines to assist in safe reversing. Inside of the XAV AX1000 box you’ll also find a likely longer than 4 ½ feet USB extension cord. The best thing to do with this is to plug one end into the USB input in the rear of the device and then fish the wire through your dashboard so that you can connect mobile devices on the go with these. The extra length makes finding the right spot for the cable to be deployed pretty straightforward while giving you a lot of freedom, too. A front-facing USB port and aux input make listening tunes on other devices like flash drives oran old mp3 player so convenient. No problem with the trailing lead to iphone for Apple Play, which I was a little concerned about. Only slight improvement I can suggest at this time would be a higher definition screen for the reverse camera as it does seem a little blurry on the extreme edges of the screen, which I don’t recall having on the Pioneer unit, but the Sony seems to have a wider and deeper rear view, so not a problem!
