Review of the Pioneer XDV-P6 6 Disc DVD Player


Missing Attachment

Pioneer has always been one of the most trusted brands in the industry for over 70 years now, dating back to the birth of the company in 1937. It took another 50 years to before they introduced the first auto electronics? industry 3-source, DIN heat unit that came complete with a CD player, radio tuner, and a tape deck. Auto audio has never been the same. Now, another 20 years later, their latest innovation is once again setting the industry on its ear.

When Pioneer recently introduced the XDV-P6 6 Disc DVD Player, it was obvious that this was going to be the industry leader. This is the DVD player that everybody else in the industry would have no choice but to take a back seat to. It is the technology that the competition can only model their products after but never duplicate or exceed in quality and entertainment aspects.

But you have to go a step further because the XDV-P6 isn?t just a 6-disc DVD player. In addition to the 6-disc DVD capabilities, it will also bring you hours of listening pleasure by playing standard audio CD-R/RW?s as well. Not only can the XDV-P6 handle DVD video, it is capable of handling video CD?s. It also has playback capabilities for all MP3 and WMA/WAV files. You?d almost be willing to bet that this device could make you a meal if you asked it nicely enough.

Now take and combine this unit with another Pioneer Audio/Video receiver, such as the AVH-P7800DVD or AVH-P6800DVD. Or combine it with one of Pioneer?s navigation systems like the AVIC-N3,D2 or the AVIC Z1 while you?re at it. What does that give you? It gives you the power to select, play, and enjoy audio or video discs at the touch of a finger. What could be better than that?

The XDV-P6?s digital optical output graciously provides you with Dolby Digital as well as DTS multi-channel surround capabilities when you connect to the DEQ-P8000 Multi-channel Processor. This is how the XDV-P6 6 Disc DVD Player affords you with the luxury of adding DVD video playback to your in-car entertainment environment. The XDV-P6 6-disc player plays all of these formats — CD, CD-R/RW, CR-ROM: MP3, WMA, DVD-Video, DVD-R/RW, and Video CD.

Take a look at some of the other standard features that you get with the XDV-P6:

? AV BUS input / output
? Built-in MPEG 2/1 decoder
? Dolby Digital
? DTS Yes Linear PCM
? Front-Rear RCA Output
? Remote sensor

And that is just the tip of the iceberg. You?ll be able to play all those formats mentioned above simply by connecting the XDV-P6 to any Pioneer IP-Bus headunit. In addition to these features, you can connect the optional remote sensor and turn the XDV-P6 into a stand-alone unit. Now you have an additional video system for your passenger?s enjoyment. The unit enables you to add multiple video screens should you want to. If that?s not outstanding entertainment capabilities for the inside of a vehicle, then nothing else ever will be.
