Brilliant 5.8" Color Display

You will be amazed at the detail and clarity of the screen on the Pioneer AVH-P2300DVD. For 2011, Pioneer has enhanced the display for the Audio/Video receivers to a brighter and more vivid display. The Pioneer AVH-P2300DVD features a 5.8" WQVGA screen with a resolution of 480x240, which is perfect for all the movies that you will be watching. The interface is reminiscent of last years AV models, but has been upgraded for convenience. The menus are even more user-friendly and the GUI is smooth.

Complete Audio/Video Playback

With the AVH-P2300DVD you will not have to worry about some files not playing back on the unit. The majority of the audio and video file types are fully compatible and ready for playback. For watching your movies, Pioneer has integrated DivX and full DVD support for just about any type of movie you want to watch. For audio, the choices are even wider. From your standard CD to iTunes AAC, this receiver will be able to play your audio files with ease. To top it off, the receiver has advanced audio decoders and equalizers that will adjust the sound quality until it is exactly how you want it. A built-in 96 kHz/24-bit Digital-to-Analog (D/A) Converter is just the beginning. A Dolby Digital and Linear PCM decoder, along with a DTS digital out will make your car sound like a well tuned movie theater.

Upgrade to the System of your Dreams

You don't have to stop with a DVD player. The Pioneer AVH-P2300DVD is one of the most customizable units on the market today. With the amount of add-on modules ready to be connected to the receiver, you will never have to worry about not having something to listen to. With just a connection of a few cables, you can integrate HD Radio, SIRIUS Satellite Radio, XM Radio, Bluetooth, GPS Navigation, iPod/iPhone control, a back -up camera, and more! By putting the Pioneer AVH-P2300DVD at the center of your car, you can build the system exactly how you want it!

I bought this stereo a few months ago and installed it into my 2004 Nissan Xterra. I love it! It installed really easy, it works great and I have yet to have any problems. My car battery did die and when I jumped my car the fuses blew in the back of the stereo but I just had to change them and it went back to normal. The set up is really easy to understand. it does sometimes go back to demo mode when I eject a CD until I select a new input format. I just wish it was easier to watch ipod videos on the screen.

I purchased this as a gift for one of my friends car wich is a 04 hyundai tiburon. I even intalled it for him which was a simple and easy process. It fit perfect and did not stick out from the center consol of the car it was flush with all the panels. The radio was flawless in every feature and price. I shop here for all my vehicle equipment.

The only issue is you need a special cable to make the DVD work while driving. Thats the safety feature I know but other allow a simple override.
