Big screen entertainment.

Double the size, many times the entertainment. Fitting perfectly into your car’s 2-DIN slot, the AVH-P4200DVD plays your entire film and music collection, wherever it’s stored.

Enjoy your films or tunes in virtually any format on USB, SD card, AV device or CD and DVD – and enjoy DivX video from these sources, too.

The 7-inch touch-screen slides down to reveal the disc loader and SD card input. Access to the rear USB and auxiliary inputs is via a connector cable.

Fully customise what appears on-screen: choose favourite menu items, background image and select from 113 illumination colours.

The Dual Zone function lets front seat passengers listen to music from one source, while rear-seat passengers can watch a movie from DVD, iPod-Video on optional rear screens.

Whichever audio format you play, you can be assured of high quality, pure audio, customised to your needs. The AVH-P4200DVD has an 8-band graphic equaliser which you can use to best match the equalisation levels to the acoustics of your car.

The system features an easily customisable ‘Sonic Center Control’ and Auto EQ, which lets you perfectly calibrate and align the audio signal to the listening position (with an optional microphone).

With 3 hi-volt RCA pre-outs, the AVH-P4200DVD is the perfect hub on which to expand your in-car audio system. You can also add an optional CD-BRB200 Bluetooth adapter to make and receive calls wirelessly via the system.

Or upscale your system with high-end navigation: add our optional AVIC-F220 (available April 2010) hideaway sat nav computer, and get stress-free route guidance across Europe.

Connections

• Aux In Yes (Rear Audio and Video input)

• Direct sub drive (+) Yes

  Combine the MOSFET 50Wx4 power amp and EEQ Plus technology to get Direct Sub Drive, another unique Pioneer technology feature. It enables you to amplify your front speakers by 2 x 50 W and add a 70 W amplified filtered subwoofer (in 2 Ohm mode) in the rear to enjoy outstanding full power bass without an extra amplifier. It's an easy solution for lovers of booming bass.

• High voltage output (+) 4V

  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.

Audio Features

• Auto EQ (+) Yes

  Let your system take care of your sound. Our new Auto EQ feature monitors and analyses the acoustics inside of your car and uses the measurements to automatically adjust your audio equalisation levels.

  Using a 3-band parametric equaliser Auto EQ adjusts the front and rear speakers separately. The result is audio perfectly suited to your in-car environment. (Please note: an optional microphone is required.)

• Sonic Center Control (+) Yes

  Sonic Center Control is a listening position adjustment tool, which lets you optimally tune the audio output based on where you (or your passengers) are sitting.
  
  By changing the position to the right (as shown in the screenshot), the sound image will move to the right. The driver’s side speaker timing is adjusted, with the result of an improved sound stage based on your listening position.
  
  This feature takes the sound delay data used by DSPs and translates it into an analogue version using phase delays. However, in order to mimic a DSP’s sound delay, frequencies can only be altered up until midrange.

• Source Level Adjuster (+) 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.
