AVH-P3200DVD Features

5.8-Inch Touchscreen Display
The AVH-P3200DVD boasts a 5.8-inch TFT LCD touchscreen display with 1440 x 240 pixel resolution. Navigating your media and system settings from the touchscreen is a breeze thanks to intuitive touch controls and customizable menus. Tap, Swipe or Drag--exactly the way you expect a touchscreen device to work.

Versatile Multimedia Playback
Enjoy your favorite DVDs while parked with the full-featured DVD player, or add a back seat screen for your passengers to watch as you drive. The AVH-P3200DVD will play DVDs, DVD-Rs, Video CDs and even DivX files burnt to CD or DVD (or from a USB device). You can also use the rear A/V input to attach external devices like video game systems.

As for music, you can enjoy your favorite CDs, or listen to MP3/WMA/AAC files from either CD/DVD data discs or a USB device.

USB Input / SD Memory Card Slot
Connect USB thumb drives or other devices and enjoy playback of your digital audio files or DivX video. 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-P3200DVD's screen. Say goodbye to the annoying static of FM transmitters and other iPod half-solutions.

Advanced Sound Retriever
Hear the detail, warmth and clarity, the way the artist intended it, from all of your highly compressed MP3, WMA and AAC files stored on USB memory device, iPod and portable digital players. By restoring data (especially higher frequencies) that tend to get lost in the digital compression process, Pioneer's Advanced Sound Retriever technology enhances audio reproduction nearly all the way up to 20 kHz frequencies.

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.

Dial in Your Sound
Use and customize EQ curves, adjust the eight-band parametric equalizer, or change loudness and bass boost settings to get the perfect sound.

AUX-In Connection
Use the built-in AUX input for connecting any digital portable player and other external auxiliary devices. For extra-convenient access, the AVH-P3200DVD has this A/V input on the front panel.

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).

Available Bluetooth Wireless Technology
Use the available CD-BTB200 Bluetooth Adapter and Bluetooth-enabled cellular phones for easy, safe, and hands-free operation, including talking via the headunit's microphone and your vehicle's speaker system. The system automatically mutes any other audio during incoming or outgoing calls.

Rear View Camera Capability
Keep an eye on your backside using the optional Rear View Camera (ND-BC2 or ND-BC20PA): while you're in reverse the rear-view camera can be in full screen. An unit equipped with the optional rear-view camera adds a level of safety and assurance you can rely on. In addition to keeping you and your family safe, this feature also makes maneuvering in tight spaces easier.

Ready to Expand
The AVH-P3200DVD is also compatible with Pioneer's XM and Sirius satellite radio tuners, HD radio tuner, TV tuner, CD/DVD changers and more.

5.0 out of 5 stars Over the top if you just want music!, March 10, 2010

This review is from: Pioneer AVH-P3200DVD In-Dash Double-DIN DVD Multimedia AV Receiver (Electronics)

My jensing stock car stereo died, so I figured that it was best to get a new one. If you want double din dash, this is the one to get! I dont know why people still buy the 3100 version, probably because they haven't heard of this one. I almost got that one too, but I accidentally clicked on this one, and boy am I glad I did! The 3100 doesn't have a SD card slot, which this one (avh p3200dvd) does! I dont use the bluetooth feature, nor do I plan to watch movies on it. I was actually looking at the fh-p8000bt, but I wanted a DVD MP3 feature. For an extra $50, it was worth it to upgrade to this one because you will get a LCD TOUCH screen, a USB, Aux inputs, DVD playability, AND an SD card slot.

Pros:
The price/feature ratio is a steal! Cheap with superb high-end sound; they don't skim on the audio just because it plays DVD's... in fact, it sounds better than my factory jensing which already sounded nice. Also since it's DVD, it can play my entire music collection. Yes, my mp3 collection doesn't even fill up a DVD but hey, I'm very picky of what I listen to.

Touchscreen LCD is very easy to use. Navigation is easy once you get the hang of it, it becomes second nature. The software is very smooth and doesn't hiccup or freeze.

It has lots of preset led colors to suit your style; This feature wasn't important for me, but it's still nice to have. DVD readability is nice, although i dont ever plan to use it for movies...driving and watching movies is taboo.

I can upgrade it to have a navigation system whenever I want.

The USB slot is a great alternative source for music. It is also very compatible with the ipod, and I also heard Zune, but why use an Ipod when I would rather use the deck?

The SD card slot is a feature only in the 3200, not the 3100. This is a plus because I dont want to accidentally kick my usb drive and break my dash. The SD card slides right in and gets out of your way. Also another great alternative source for music.

It looks simply beautiful. I stare at it for 5 minutes every time I get into my car.

Now for the cons:
No theft deterrent. Not too big a deal for me. If a thief wants it, he'll get it no matter what system you have. Besides, I have a car alarm. I dont think I wanna carry around a large faceplate with me whever I go anyway.

No bluetooth. Okay, so I hear that people complain that even cheap $100 stereos gets bluetooth, but for this system its a $100 addon. but do the other cheap stereos have dvd/mp3 playability? usb/sd card slots? touchscreen lcd? I dont think so. Also, I dont believe in talking while driving so it works out for me.

No HD radio. People also complain that HD radio is a freebie on even $100 stereos. I dont know what I'm missing out on because I've never had HD radio. Nor do I listen to the radio much, they just play crap most of the time anyway.

Wow Pioneer blew me away with the features/price ratio. You can't find any other system with all these features for this price. Not only that, but the quality and craftsmanship of this product is superb.

5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect Mid Level Unit, March 2, 2010

By 

J. Skee "JaySki" (CA, USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Pioneer AVH-P3200DVD In-Dash Double-DIN DVD Multimedia AV Receiver (Electronics)

If you want an in dash DVD unit without navigation (which I believe you can add on later) then this stereo is perfect! It won't break the bank at around $420 installed and it has tons of nice features. The touch screen is smooth and the interface is very easy to navigate around. When you plug in your iPod via usb cable you can control it via the stereo. This is probably my favorite feature because its so easy and functional. The DVD picture quality is excellent and it plays DVD+R movies and music. Another great feature is that you have a USB, SD, and Aux port directly on the front of the stereo. Overall I would definitely recommend this unit!

4.0 out of 5 stars Pretty amazing for under 400 bucks., March 23, 2010

(REAL NAME)   

This review is from: Pioneer AVH-P3200DVD In-Dash Double-DIN DVD Multimedia AV Receiver (Electronics)

I searched for a while. I chose this unit due to the lower cost.

The only beating is the video parking brake thing. In my state, it's not illegal to have the capability of playing video while driving....it's just illegal to do it. Also, to me, it is harder finding the parking brake wire to tie this into than installing the bypass.

The bypass is easy. Don't buy a premade one. Make it yourself. Do a search on youtube for "avh-p3200dvd bypass" and you will see one for the 4200. It's the same exact method.

Anyways, back to the receiver. It's beautiful. Pretty intuitive. I have not had a single issue yet. It will play xvid/divx files off the SD card, CD, or DVD. The only thing to consider in my opinion is getting the AVH-3200BT instead of this model. On amazon it's about 60 bucks more and you get bluetooth integrated. I did NOT do this because I have an iphone and the iphone doesn't work that well with the bluetooth and I'm not that concerned about that anyway. If you buy this model and decide you want bluetooth later it will cost you about an additional 140.

The colors of the buttons illumination and background are independently changeable. I have matched mine to a color scheme in my car.

The sound is great. It's better than your factory stereo...guaranteed.

Supports RDS which is nice. If you don't know what that is just google it.

Some say the SD card size is limited to 8 gb. Not a big deal for me. Maybe for some. I have only tested it with an 8 gb. There are many other reviews that are saying it goes up to 32 gbs. I have a 16 gb card and will try it and update this review once I do.

The SD card takes about 10-15 seconds to switch to everytime you switch inputs to it or turn on the car. I think it checks the contents every time the radio turns off and on or you switch inputs. No big deal....it doesn't take more than about 15 seconds.

I love this unit.
