SAVE SPACE

EASY INSTALLATION

Being only 8.2 cm high, the TS-WX77A amplified subwoofer won’t monopolise your car boot. You can even put your luggage on top of it: the tough polyurethane skin is anti-slip and anti-scratch.

The TS-WX77A is driven by a powerful MOSFET 200 W amp. This means you don’t need to install an extra amplifier to power your sub. Simply connect it directly to your headunit.

HEAR THE DIFFERENCE WITH PIONEER Pioneer’s audio products have a tradition of setting new standards. Our ODR and PRS systems regularly win on the international sound competition scene. This winning mentality is transferred to our whole audio range – from our superior speakers and booming subs to our easy-installation and space-saving solutions. Pick up our 2009 in-car entertainment guide or visit www.pioneer.eu to see the full line-up.

21 COMPLETE YOUR DRIVE

AMPLIFIED SUBWOOFER

In 2008, Pioneer’s TS-E170CI speakers were the number one choice for readers of German car audio magazine ‘autohifi’

Glossary Here you can find an explanation of all icons and logos used throughout this catalogue. It has been organised alphabetically for your convenience. 3-band parametric equaliser (PEQ)

Dolby Digital The current surround sound quality encoding standard, Dolby Digital provides in-car movie theatre sound performance. The front left and right, centre and rear left and right speakers span frequencies from 20 Hz-20 kHz, and there is a dedicated subwoofer channel for additional low frequency sound effects.

The 3-band equaliser allows you to adjust the equalisation to match your car’s acoustics. To ease usage even further, 6 equaliser curves are preset: Powerful, Natural, Vocal, Flat, Custom and Super Bass. 3 bands can be adjusted in band-specific steps from +6 to -6, namely EQ-L (low), EQ-M (mid) and EQ-H (high). 7-band graphic equaliser (GEQ) With Pioneer’s 7-band graphic equaliser, you can customise the equalisation levels to best match the acoustics of your car. To ease usage, 7 equaliser curves are preset: Powerful, Natural, Vocal, Flat, Custom 1, Custom 2 and Super Bass. 7 bands (50 Hz, 125 Hz, 315 Hz, 800 Hz, 2 kHz, 5 kHz and 12.5 kHz) can be adjusted in band-specific steps from +6 to -4, or -6, depending on which equaliser curve is selected.

Dual Zone Thanks to Dual Zone, rear seat passengers can enjoy entertainment from a DVD, while the front seat passengers listen to music from another source, such as iPhone, iPod, SD or USB. DVD-R/DVD-RW DVD-R and DVD-RW are DVD recordable formats. DVD-R is a “write once” format, which only allows data to be recorded once. DVD-RW is a rewritable format allowing data to be rerecorded over existing data a given number of times. Pioneer’s NavGate units can play back a wide range of file formats from DVD, such as MP3, WMA, WAV, AAC, DivX and MPEG4.

Advanced Audio Coding (AAC) AAC is short for Advanced Audio Coding and refers to an audio compression technology standard used with MPEG2 and MPEG4. AAC provides more efficient audio encoding compression than other formats like MP3, while delivering quality comparable to uncompressed CD audio. Pioneer units play back AAC files encoded by iTunes ®.

DVD-Video DVD guarantees second-to-none picture quality. The ultra-sharp digital picture and surround sound bring impressive cinema into your car. DVD is also packed with useful features, such as multiple languages, soundtracks and subtitles and support for various multi-channel audio-encoding technologies such as DTS and Dolby Digital.

Aux-in terminal (front/rear/SIDE) Connect a range of external devices, such as portable audio or video players, to your NavGate unit’s Aux-in connection.

High Pass Filter/Low Pass Filter A High Pass Filter is a filter that passes high frequencies well, but attenuates (or reduces) frequencies lower than an adjustable cut-off frequency. For example, when you do not want low sounds to play from the tweeters or midrange speakers, turn on the HPF (High Pass Filter) on the tweeters’ or mid-range speakers’ channels. Only frequencies higher than the cut-off frequency are outputted from the tweeters or mid-range speakers. A Low Pass Filter is a filter that passes low frequencies well, but attenuates (or reduces) frequencies higher than an adjustable cut-off frequency. For example, when you do not want high sounds to play from the subwoofer, turn on the LPF (Low Pass Filter) on the subwoofer's channel. Only frequencies lower than the cut-off frequency are outputted from the subwoofer.

Bluetooth Units with this revolutionary wireless technology communicate automatically with most Bluetooth-enabled mobile phones* and treat the mobile as a source device. After set-up of an individual user identity, Bluetooth wireless technology ensures automatic data communication between the phone and your navigation unit, whenever the two devices are within range of each other. * Find out whether your mobile phone is compatible at www.pioneer.eu CD-R/RW CD-R and CD-RW are Compact Disc recordable formats. CD-R is a “write once” format, which only allows data to be recorded once. CD-RW is a rewritable format allowing data to be recorded multiple times.

Hi-volt pre-out By providing a strong signal with less noise and more definition, the hi-volt pre-outs reduce demand on an amplifier’s input circuit, so it can work with lower gain settings. This results in improved sound quality and a wider dynamic range.

Cellular telephone auto muting This feature automatically reduces the volume of your system when an incoming call is detected or you dial an outgoing call on a cellular phone installed in your car.

iPod Direct Control All NavGate units feature iPod direct control. This feature lets you control your iPod or iPhone directly from your unit. Simply connect the device using an optional cable, and you’re set.

Colour customisation The AVIC-F10BT, AVIC-F910BT, AVIC-F9110BT, AVIC-F710BT and AVIC-F310BT all feature RGB button illumination. Choose from a multitude of colours to better integrate your NavGate unit into your car dashboard. Direct sub drive Direct sub drive is an easy solution for lovers of booming bass, which allows you to hook up a subwoofer without the need for an additional amplifier. DivX Using the DivX codec, lengthy video segments can be compressed into small sizes while maintaining relatively high visual quality.

iPod VIDEO Many NavGate units support playback of iPod Video. Check the accessories (page 19) to find the correct cable for your unit. Made for iPod “Made for iPod” means that an electronic accessory has been designed to connect specifically to iPod and has been certified by the developer to meet Apple performance standards.

The MOSFET 50 W power amp boosts audio performance levels by using semiconductor technology. Characteristics such as low loss, low audio distortion, eliminated switching distortion and a wide power band combine to give MOSFET 50 W x 4 headunits 50 W x 4 of sonic clarity, matching the best component amplifiers. MP3

A Secure Digital (SD) card is a flash memory storage device, available in a range of memory capacities, which can store a wide selection of file formats. The 2009 NavGate line-up features many models that allow SD music and video playback. SD cards can also be used for updating NavGate units via the NavGate Feeds PC application. Sound Retriever (S.Rtrv)

MP3 is a popular compression format that allows large amounts of audio files to be stored on one CD-R/CD-RW disc. MP3-compatible Pioneer players come equipped with large buffering capabilities, which means they are able to handle data rates from 16 kbps and VBR Variable Bit Rate recording.

Compressed audio such as MP3 may be convenient, but it can result in inferior sound quality. Pioneer’s S.Rtrv restores the quality of compressed audio files such as MP3 to the level of the original recording. Source Level Adjuster (SLA)

MPEG4

The Source Level Adjuster 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.

MPEG4 is a collection of methods defining compression of audio and visual (AV) digital data. OEM remote control ready If your car features an existing steering wheel remote control, you can connect it to your NavGate unit and take full control via that remote control. By using an optional OEM remote control adapter*, the headunit can be hard-wired directly to the car’s original remote control system via the mini-jack input at the back of the headunit. A simple, convenient and safe feature that lets you keep both hands on the wheel. * Find the correct adapter for your car at www.pioneer.eu

Tele Atlas maps Tele Atlas provides map data for Pioneer’s NavGate units. With one of the most comprehensive map databases in the world, Tele Atlas enables you to find destinations, guides travellers with landmarks and provides accurate data. Traffic Message Channel (TMC) Keeps the driver updated on current traffic events and suggests alternative routes.

Parrot Parrot develops technologies for embedded noise-robust voice recognition and signal processing, with applications in mobile computing and mobile communications. Parrot is one of the few companies to develop the Bluetooth wireless technology stack, rather than rely on third party code. This ensures that Pioneer’s Bluetooth models have better maintainability throughout their life cycle.

USB Universal Serial Bus (USB) is an external peripheral interface standard for communication between Pioneer units and external peripherals over a connection cable. USB-in (Rear/side)

Plays Windows Media Windows Media Audio (WMA) and Windows Media Video (WMV) are music and video compression formats developed by the Microsoft Corporation. They utilise the latest coding technologies to compress original audio and video, minimising file sizes while maintaining good quality. The AVIC-F10BT supports playback of both WMA and WMV files, while all other NavGate devices support playback of WMA files.

Using the integrated rear or side USB-in terminal, it takes only seconds to expand your system with a USB stick with audio content or a USB audio player and play your compressed audio files. Controlling the device can be done from the headunit or via a remote control.

Voice recognition The AVIC-F10BT features conversational voice recognition. This means you can perform certain navigation, Bluetooth and audio functions by using speech commands*. * Available in English, French, German, Italian, Spanish and Dutch

Radio Data System (RDS) RDS attaches additional (digital) information along with FM broadcasts. This information is used by your RDS tuner for a wide variety of features: - A F (Alternative Frequency) ensures that you can continue listening to your favourite radio channel without any interruption. When your current frequency is nearly out of reach, the system automatically switches to a frequency with better reception – without you ever noticing. - P I (Programme Identity) Seek will automatically search for a different station with the same programming, if the tuner can’t find a suitable station or reception status becomes bad. - TA (Traffic Announcement) lets you receive traffic announcements automatically, no matter what source you are listening to. Playback of any source you’re listening to at that moment will be interrupted. - P TY (Programme Type) allows you to search quickly and easily for radio channels that broadcast within a certain theme, such as News, Weather, Pop, Rock, etc.

wav WAV files are used to store high-quality, uncompressed audio data of CDquality. This file format requires a huge amount of memory – roughly 10 MB per minute of music. Compressed audio files such as MP3 and WMA require significantly less memory, but reproduce poorer quality sound.

Works with iPhone “Works with iPhone” means that an electronic accessory has been designed to connect specifically to iPhone and has been certified by the developer to meet Apple performance standards.

RCA pre-outs enable you to easily expand your sound system. Depending on whether your NavGate unit comes with 1 or 3 RCA pre-outs, you can customise your sound system with separate amplifiers for the front speakers, the rear speakers and/or a subwoofer. The RCA pre-outs let you create the exact sound you want, with the focus on complete flexibility.
