Pioneer - To Move The Heart And Touch The Soul
The philosophy move the heart and touch the soul has been the mantra of Japanese electronics genius Pioneer since its conception during 1938. It was that long ago that a modest gentlemen named Nozomu Matsumoto founded what has grown today into one of the world's most respected electronics manufactures.

Ultra high quality, yet affordable. That is Pioneer's mission today. It's vision, it's values. And true to these values this resolute designer has designed, developed and produced more electronic technology than most companies ever will. To such a point whereby nowadays the Pioneer stable covers everything from high quality and very affordable receivers and amplifiers through to speakers and subwoofers.

Special Edition Series - The Union Of Sublime Finesse And Kinetic Force
For the consummate music enthusiast who wants superb aural control and volume aplenty, but doesn't want to go down the well trodden European or American route. For reasons unknown many remain unaware that Japan produces some of the worlds nicest drivers, and when you've got a designer with the technical acumen that Pioneer possesses; you simply cannot go wrong. The Special Edition series represent the epitome of Pioneer's engineering abilities and material evolution, and a single audition will reveal just what this experienced designer is capable of. These drivers are simply phenomenal in every way, easily able to outperform speakers more than thrice their price with deceptive ease.

Design Ideologies
The latest generation of Pioneer DEQ’s are vastly more than just another multi-channel class D amplifier. Despite its small dimensions it’s a powerful control centre possessing ten processed DSP channels. It’s no lightweight either, the amplifier portion delivers power aplenty into each channel, from 8 right down to 2 Ohms loading. Finally there is some balance in the price to performance ratio!

Tuning Via PC Or App
Download the free dedicated app or software and connect it to the unit for easy adjustment and control. On a smartphone, you can check each adjustment function with easy-to-understand visuals and intuitively operate it with the touch screen. On a PC, each adjustment function is clearly displayed on one screen and can be adjusted. For example, you can use the pre-set EQ to set the sound to suit your car’s type and preferences, thence fine-tune any areas of concern on your smartphone while listening to music.

Versatile Sound Adjustment
By converting the audio signal input from the audio system into a digital signal, the system is equipped with a number of adjustment functions, such as time alignment which adjusts the distance from each speaker to the listening position to correct the time it takes for the sound to reach the listener. It also features an in-depth equaliser which corrects any irregularities in the frequency characteristics within the vehicle to an ideal state. This changes the driver’s seat to an even more optimal listening position.

Easy To Read Display
The digital processor is equipped with a wired remote control that allows for easy direct operation of music sources connected to the main unit. The streamlined design, while still providing functionality, and the easy-to-read digital display add a stylish touch to the interior of the vehicle.

Limitless Flexability
The digital processor is designed for ease of installation, making it easy for anyone to install. Its compact design allows it to be installed in limited spaces inside the vehicle, making it suitable for a variety of vehicle models. Featuring a minimal footprint, it can be easily installed in tight spaces such as under a seat. An optional speaker line input/output cable is also available, allowing you to easily connect the factory system to the digital processor. This allows you to easily improve the sound quality of your factory system.

Premium Quality
In addition to the meticulous circuit layout and circuit board pattern, Pioneer has carefully selected high-quality parts that enable high-precision signal processing and high-resolution playback. Through thorough tuning, Pioneer engineers have achieved the high quality sound they were striving for. Furthermore, with a wide range of input and output terminals that allow for the construction of full-scale systems, a wide range of system deployment is possible. Furthermore, it is also media-compatible, allowing you to connect a variety of high-quality sound sources and play the pure sound of music.

Equipped with a Texas Instruments class D amplifier, the AK4100 features a high-performance Class D amplifier circuit that delivers high-resolution playback. The electronic processing faithfully reproduces audio source information processed at a high sampling rate, delivering accurate and powerful sound.

Pre-Outs Aplenty
Equipped with ten 4 V high-voltage pre-outs, it can accommodate a full-scale audio system, including amplifiers and speaker systems. This allows for a wide range of applications, including a standard front / rear four-speaker system or a multi-amplifier / multi-speaker system.

Enjoy High Quality Sound
In addition to audio sources such as factory system with RCA or speaker input, it can also directly play audio from smartphones via Bluetooth®, which supports high-resolution audio. It also comes equipped with a USB-DAC input that supports the connection of digital audio players, allowing for the playback of a variety of media.

Hi-Res Audio Certified
This unit is equipped with high quality sound components and tuning and is compatible with the Hi-Res audio certification, allowing simply the highest quality sound reproduction! The perfect partner to Pioneer’s exclusive Special Edition speaker range!

OEM Interupt Ready
While playing other audio sources, you can interrupt the original navigation system audio from the speaker line input. You can also set the music attenuation as with conventional navigation system audio output. You can clearly hear the car navigation system’s voice guidance, so you can enjoy your drive with peace of mind.
