Big displays are in. Just check out the latest generation of cars. If you want to retrofit your car to stay in the game, Jensen makes it easy with the CAR8000 DVD receiver. This audio/video marvel rocks an incredible 10.1" capacitive touchscreen, along with some easy-to-use control buttons on the radio's front panel. The receiver's chassis is a fit for the popular 4" tall double-DIN dash opening, while the big screen plugs into the front of the chassis, giving you Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ with easy voice control access in most modern vehicles.
Important Note — The screen measures 10.0625" x 6.395". Before ordering, check for possible interference with your dash, your shifter, and all other controls.
CarPlay and Android Auto integrate your smartphones into the driving experience. With CarPlay, you can access iPhone content with intuitive icons or the sound of your voice. That means easy access to your music library, audiobooks, phone, messages, navigation, and many third-party streaming music apps, too. Learn more at www.apple.com/ios/carplay. With Android Auto, your Android device is on the job without distracting you from driving. You'll have easy voice access to Google Maps, weather, music, and apps, not to mention your text messages. And you can make calls, too, of course. Get more info at www.android.com/auto.
Bluetooth enables wireless streaming for stored music, music services, podcasts, and audiobooks. Of course, you'll be able to take and make calls while keeping your hands on the wheel — an awesome safety feature when you're making your daily commute.
This Jensen's 10.1" touchscreen display is command central for system control and media info, while it's also a monitor for a connected backup camera (not included, see Accessories). The two USB ports let you connect a smartphone as well as a flash drive loaded with your music. Into system building for awesome sound? Three sets of preamp outputs deliver a powerful 4-volt signal to the amplifiers powering your speakers and subs. An 8-band equalizer and time alignment give you plenty of options for tweaking the sound in your vehicle.
