One of the most underestimated modifications in the import aftermarket arena undoubtedly comes in the form of mobile electronics, specifically car stereo tuning.
In the past, Import Tuner has also been guilty of overlooking the importance that aftermarket sounds play in customized rides. Then some time ago, we took out an extensive survey that reached some 20,000 readers and to our surprise, the first and most replaced component in our readers' cars was the factory stereo. Since then, many of the vehicles we've featured in these pages have sported some crazy audio/visual electronics.
Whether you are considering upgrading your factory or aftermarket system or even just plain determined to have the sickest hardware around, Pioneer Electronics offers several audio/visual components that might just put your ride out of reach.
The company's XDV-P9 is a six-disc DVD player featuring home theater-quality Dolby Digital(tm) and DTS(tm) surround sound output for unlimited hours of visual audio entertainment. In addition to DVD video, the Pioneer DVD player will also play standard audio CDs, CD-Rs and Video CD discs. The XDV-P9 also offers an optical output, which is compatible with the AVM-P9000R master control unit. The AVM-P9000R, a top-of-the-line audio/video controller, brings additional features, such as 5.1 home theater set-up capability, plus Dolby Digital and DTS. This unit is also an extravagantly featured audio receiver with a powerful tuner (Supertuner III(tm) with RDS), built in equalizer (EEQ(tm)) and power amplifier (MOSFET 45x6). It provides an extreme amount of flexibility, allowing you to add multiple CD players and other components. The AVM-P9000R also incorporates multiple video inputs and outputs, including an optional navigation system and TV tuner. Another awesome feature is the Virtual Theater GUI, which takes full advantage of an easy-to-use 3D, virtual reality-style system.
The Pioneer AVX-P7000CD is a trick in-dash motorized LCD color display that will transform any dashboard with its awesome color and cool 3D viewing. The unit features a 7-inch diagonal wide-screen TFT active matrix screen with five viewing modes. It is also fully motorized and the screen itself is adjustable for better viewing angles. The display unit offers plenty of cool features, such as an ultra-slim built-in CD player, auto dimmer control, anti-reflection color screen and automatic gain control for optimum playback quality.
