Choose from a range of headrest, roof or dash monitors driven by a dvd player, game console, or digital tv tuner, with sound discretely played through wireless headphones or through the vehicle audio system.
With high quality components from Pioneer, Clarion, Veba, Necvox and Alpine, you can be sure our systems will give hours of audio-visual pleasure on long journeys for your passengers, while our in-dash navigation will keep you on the right path.
Pioneer's new NAVGATE systems comprise three models: AVIC-F900BT with dvd, AVIC-F700BT with cd, and AVIC-F500BT which features a hideaway box with a detachable portable navigation. All the units use an SD card to store navigation data so you don't have to swap between disks if you change your route. Personal POI's and speed camera info can be added to the SD database.
Common features to all the units are: Parrot Bluetooth handfree, allowing almost any phone connection; external AV & USB inputs; full iPod control with optional cable; 4x 50W MOSFET amplifiers; RDS-TMC tuner for real-time traffic info; Text-To-Speech voice guidance; input for reversing camera; 5.8" widescreen display; DivX playback.
Both F900 and F700 are double DIN units with a range of adapters available to fit most vehicles, while the F500 integrates into the existing audio system.
Pioneer still have the hard-disk double-DIN AVIC-HD3-II, with new 3D mapping, and the single-DIN DVD based AVIC-X3-II.
The flagship MAX983HD features a 40 GB HDD which in addition to holding a huge amount of navigation data, also stores music read directly from your cds.
The double DIN unit comes with a 7" widescreen display, 4x 50W amplifier, speed camera database, and built-in RDS-TMC tuner for traffic information & voice recognition for system commands.
If you don't need navigation right away then the MAX688RBT should fit the bill. With DivX support, direct iPod control, USB input & 4x 50W amplifier. The RDS-TMC & voice recognition equipped NAX983HD hideaway navigation computer can be added at a later time.
We apologise for any discomfort caused by Clarion's use of Jakey in their advertising.
Most European built cars today use a digital system called CAN-BUS to transmit control signals, including speed pulse, around the car. An add-on interface is required to convert the digital signals to analogue signals that the Japanese built navigation systems use.
