USB Input / SD Memory Card Slot
Connect USB thumb drives or other devices and enjoy playback of your digital audio and video files. Ditto for SD memory cards. This makes it a breeze to quickly grab some media from your computer before a big road trip, and enjoy hours of entertainment on the road.

iPod Direct Control (CD-IU50V required)
Connect your iPod directly and experience exceptional sound quality while easily navigating through music, videos and album art on the AVH-P5200BT’s screen. Say goodbye to the annoying static of FM transmitters and other iPod half-solutions.

Simple Search for iPod lets you quickly search your iPod/iPhone with alphabetical search by Song, Artist, Album or Genre categories.

MP3/WMA/AAC Playback
Play back three of the most popular digital audio formats: MP3, WMA, and AAC. The MVH-8200′s screen displays track info, and makes navigating directories/folders a breeze.

Video/JPEG Playback for Non-Stop Entertainment

Connect, Tag, and Download
Have you ever heard a great song on the radio, but couldn’t remember what it was called or who sang it when you went to go look for it later? Now you don’t have to worry about missing out on great music. iTunes Tagging gives you the power to “tag” all of your favorite songs without having to scramble for a piece of scrap paper in the car, then later preview or purchase music at iTunes Music Store. Works with stations transmitting RDS data.

Bring Your Music to Life with Advanced Sound Retriever
This year you can hear the detail, warmth, and clarity the way the artist intended it, from all of the highly compressed MP3, WMA and AAC files playing on your CD player. By restoring data that tends to get lost in the digital compression process, we can make your music sound close to CD quality.

Supertuner IIID AM/FM Tuner
Pioneer’s legendary Supertuner IIID combines the best of digital and analog tuner technologies to reduce distortion to bring you exceptional FM and AM performance. If you live in an area where reception is weak, you’ll hear a big improvement in signal strength. And when you’re near tall buildings, Supertuner IIID reduces the effect of multi-path noise, which occurs when the signal is reflecting off of the buildings.

Always have your favorite stations at hand with 18 FM and 6 AM user presets. And when you’re somewhere new, let the tuner do the work for you by activating the Best Stations Memory (BSM) function. The tuner will seek out the 6 strongest stations in the area and set them into the tuner presets.

MOSFET 50W x4 Amplifier for the Power Hungry
Compared to conventional power supplies, the MOSFET amplification circuit is smaller and more efficient, delivering power with less distortion and absolutely zero on/off switching noise. And that doesn’t just mean a boost in volume: it means that your music will be cleaner at higher volumes because you’re not pushing the limits of the amplification circuit. Clean, efficient power that will rock your vehicle.

For those who’d like a bit more power, three 4V RCA preamp outputs are also included for system expansion (front/rear/sub).

This review is from: Pioneer MVH-P8200BT 4 x 50 Watts Multimedia AV Receiver (Electronics)

I received my MVH-P8200BT yesterday, and installed it. Installation was as normal as any other stereo, except the additional parking brake wire if you want to use the photo or video portion of this radio. Let me first start out by saying the AM & FM portion of the radio work pretty good, you can relatively easily seek to the next or previous station by pushing the knob left or right, or bring up your presets by pushing it up. The radio displays the RDS nicely as well. Changing sources (Radio, ipod/USB, or Aux input requires pressing the SRC button and rotating the tuning knob to the right or left to highlight the source and then pressing the tuning knob in. This in all is relatively easy to do in a timely manner.

Where the problem comes in, is using the ipod interface. it will start playing I believe the last song you had playing, but if you want to jump to another artist or lets say a podcast, be prepared to take your eyes off the road. You have to hit the Home button, and then rotate the knob one to the right and then press it in, and rotate the knob to highlight Songs or podcast or artist, and in my case lets do podcast, then the lost of podcast comes up and you have to rotate to the podcast and press the knob in, then it shows you the episodes, then you push it in. But on top of doing this, the tuning knob which is a 5 way control (left, right, up , down, and in) is very sensitive and plan on registering the wrong menu choice, and then having to hit the previous button on the display to pop out one menu and continue. You have to do this anything you want to change songs that are not the next immediate song that you can just press the right commander button to jump to next track.

So, I thought, well the nice remote has a left right up and down, and in feature as well. I will do this from the remote with a little more precision, well turns out 70% of the buttons on the remote don’t even do anything. any function that requires you to turn that knob on the radio, still has to be done that way. the up and down will not allow you to scroll through menu items. the only real think I was able to do with the remote was volume, next track and previous track, and radio tuning.

If you thought it would be nice to be able to play videos from your ipod or photos, it requires a $40 cable with a usb and aux cable now hanging out of the front of the radio per the manual. I did put some photos on the SD card, but you cannot play music from SD while you do your slid show, and again its a cumbersome use of the scroll wheel to jog between music and photos on the SD setup. You are able to play the slide show while listening to the radio.

Now for the real good, I think the best integration with this unit is the bluetooth with the iphone or probably many other phones, I was able to easily pull up contacts, and you can quickly choose a letter of the starting letter of the contact and click through to dial the appropriate name and if you want to call mobile or home. And the audio with the included mic is excellent. it will mute your music and continue it when your call is done.

The radio looks really good and thats what lead me immediately to this model, but I am ever so sorry I did not test it out before doing the install. I for sure thought the short comings would be overcome by using the remote, but you had no way to test it that well in the store. The remote is useless for iPod navigation or navigation or any SD media. I did get a chance to watch many tutorials online on the Alpine receiver 305 which was made for iPod and it has the navigation the way I would prefer it, thought it does lack characters and you have to scroll most titles, this pioneer was able to display a good character set. Oh and speaking of a feature that Alpine has, it has a nice readable clock. The clock on this is small, there is a feature you can turn on to show a nice clock, but you have to turn it on every time, it doesn’t stay on as an option. Even with the radio in off mode, it should show the nice larger clock IMHO, but it doesn’t you have to fight menus again to call this up.

To summarize, much fighting with a poor jog wheel to drill through menus to make common settings to what you want to listen to. They made it simple to change source and volume and next and previous track everything else gets deep in menus that will take usually 6 to 10 seconds to drill through menus to do, this is not safe in a car and the remote which could have assisted in this matter has much less ability. I think if you can do a double din the AVH-P3200 double din touch screen, is sooo much easier to navigate and for not more then $120 more in general, very upgradable and the addition items you get (CD/DVD slot and DVD playback, you wont be trying to convert stuff to Divx, and you can burn your stuff or bring along your DVD’s and you have a bigger screen.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Quite good for the price., December 5, 2010

This review is from: Pioneer MVH-P8200BT 4 x 50 Watts Multimedia AV Receiver (Electronics)

Quite honestly, I feel like the reviews are not really fair for this Head Unit (HU). I upgraded from DEH-P80MP (5 years old!)
The first thing I noticed was the jog dial is pretty similar in simple operations. The jog dial works different when in menus though. Most parts of the interface looked user-friendly or at least understandable to me the first day. The only time I had to look at the manual was to setup the Bluetooth which now detects and connects to my iPhone 4 (iOS 4.1) pretty easily, showing all the contacts. Preset dials are handy. I use the presets 90% of the time.

Pros:
- I like the screen quality. Bright in the day unlike P3200BT
- Looks nice in my car
- The Bluetooth works FLAWLESSLY (Audio quality, auto connect, receiving calls)
- SD card (mine is 8GB) hides behind the face and you can leave it there for the times you don’t want the USB cable there
- Reads my USB flash (super-talent, 16GB – 5GB of music) fast enough. 1.5 – 2 seconds
- Reads iPhone instantly
- Remembers the song playing from USB flash or SD even if you attach an iPhone and then plug the flash again
- Has lots of features and the audio quality is good
- uses most of the screen to show information about songs
- Now it’s cheaper than other HQ HUs with similar capabilities (I should have waited to get the discounts too)
- Scrolls through songs much faster than a couple of other HUs I have seen

Neutral:
- Can’t change the volume easily when showing radio presets (requires a few clicks)
- Pioneer changed the plug from what they used in old DEH series. (Needs some rewiring)
- Searching for song in iPod/iPhone is not very easy, but I can’t really think of a more efficient way of browsing them from HU. You can make a “shortcut” (custom menu) for it which makes it more handy. What I don’t like about some reviews is expecting to search for artists and playlists without having eyes off the road. Is there an audio system you can search for artists, albums and songs without looking at it?
- Asks a few extra questions before dialing a number from phone book.
- No music streaming through Bluetooth. I don’t need it anyway, because Bluetooth is not going to control the iPhone through HU.
- A bit slow for loading the next song when playing from iPod/iPhone (a fraction of a second delay after you press next)

Cons:
- iPod/iPhone cable which works with IP-BUS (the port on the back) will not control the iPod from HU. I had the cable from my old DEH and Connected it. It plays the music, but I realized that cable is not capable of controlling the iPod/iPhone. (Although no one said the would. I just thought that way and got disappointed when I learned that it doesn’t)
- For an unknown reason, it does not remember the recent calls for Bluetooth (maybe I have to read the directions again)

Overall, I love the unit. It’s much better than my old DEH series HU with all those CDs hanging around my car. I could use an extra USB on the back, but I can’t really complain about that because I knew it when I ordered it.

Great looking unit, but….., April 18, 2010

This review is from: Pioneer MVH-P8200BT 4 x 50 Watts Multimedia AV Receiver (Electronics)

Like the other reviewer, I was immediately attracted to this unit because it looks GREAT. If you start doing research and then actually see the packaging with all the features, you figure you HAVE to give it a try. I downloaded the manual from the Pioneer website, and it was a bit confusing. Probably the main thing for me, besides good sound, is the bluetooth. I drive about 70 miles every day, so handsfree phoning is essential.
PROS:
1. Again, the unit looks absolutely SWEET. The faceplate is clean and practically void of buttons except for SRC, HOME, and a return button, but unfortunately this is where some of the drawbacks are due to its outside simplicity. More on that in the CONS.
2. Very nice looking color display and well laid out. Very professional. Very well built, you can tell it’s solid and good quality material.
3. Neat detachable faceplate design. Only part of it comes off, which is actually very convenient, you can stick it in your pocket.
4. For those of you wanting bluetooth, this thing has Parrot bluetooth built in. Parrot is known for excellent bluetooth products. I have had Parrot before, so I can tell you it’s good stuff. I have an LG CF360 and the unit had no problem at all importing the phonebook.
5. It supposedly plays video, but you have to connect a wire to the parking brake to get this feature, for legal purposes, of course. I didn’t try it, but I trust it works well.

CONS:
1. There is definitely a learning curve, but that’s not a big deal.
2. There are no separate bass or treble settings, you have to use the EQ to try to get the sound to your liking. Unfortunately, I couldn’t get it right. The Dual unit I was trying to replace actually blows this Pioneer out of the water with its loudness setting. Then again, the Dual is 17W RMS as opposed to 14W RMS for the Pioneer. DON’T get fooled when you read 50W peak on the box. Please do some research on PEAK vs RMS wattage. You’ll be getting RMS 99.99999% of the time.
3. Due to lack of buttons on the faceplate, you have to go through the menus to get to the presets. Not that big a deal, but it is an inconvenience.
4. Bluetooth pairing was quick and trouble-free. Phonebook access is somewhat cumbersome, and it takes about eight steps just to dial from the phonebook. You can preset about six numbers for “speed dial”, although you still have to get to them through the menus. Note that you CANNOT ENTER ANY NUMBERS FROM THE UNIT if you want to dial manually. You HAVE to enter numbers from the phone. I found that very odd for a $350 unit. Call volume was just so-so.

I don’t use ipods or any device like that, so I can’t say anything about those features unfortunately. At any rate, the unit is going back. For the cons I listed, I figure I shouldn’t be spending the money.
