The European Imaging and Sound Association (EISA) has named our
DEX-P99RS Reference Series CD Tuner as Europe’s best.

EISA granted the prestigious “European in-car high-end component 2009-2010” award to the tuner, praising it for being “the first-ever self-contained head unit that is truly high-end.”

EISA is the largest editorial multimedia organisation in Europe, with a membership of 50 audio, mobile electronics, video and photo magazines drawn from 19 European countries.

Every year a panel of judges comprising the editors-in-chief from all EISA member magazines selects outstanding products and technologies across a wide range of audiovisual product categories.

- Digital signal is directly transferred to DSP for high-quality sound reproduction from USB device and iPod.

- 125-Color Button Illumination offers choice of colors to closely match the illumination of various dashboard displays.

EISA’s citation reads:

The thick plexi-covered face plate gives the P99RS a classy look, which really is borne out by what’s inside.

The built-in 8-channel sound processor includes a fully programmable 4-way crossover, equalization and time alignment. And the state-of-the-art CD drive and D/A converters, along with an automatic measurement system for setting initial parameters, work together to produce perfect sound.

The P99RS remains an audiophile unit even while working with portable media: its USB port accepts a digital iPod connection, which means uncompromised audio quality when playing back lossless audio.”

Tuner Features

CD Player Features

Disc Title Memory enables you to programme a 10-digit descriptive title to be displayed when a particular CD is selected.

• Last Position Memory (-) Yes

Last Position Memory automatically resumes CD play from the last point if there is interruption to CD play.

• Random Play Yes

Audio

• Audio Components • Built-in 4-channel DSP
• Copper chassis
• OFC power supply

Only the highest quality components have been selected for this system, specially selected through listening trials.

A 70µm thin copper film substrate – twice as thick as the conventional one – results in lower impedance and larger current capacity for all circuit blocks and the CD mechanism.

The custom condenser also ensures larger capacity, as well as a higher sound quality.

A high-purity Oxygen-Free Copper power cable and a highly efficient and temperature-stable amorphous chocking coil accomplish a full sound quality.

Advanced Sound Retriever YesASR stands for Advanced Sound Retriever.

Our ASR sound technology automatically restores the harmonics which were lost during the audio compression process.

ASR adjusts frequency response and sound pressure, especially in the high and low frequency ranges, to revitalise the density and presence of the compressed signal.

The result is an improved sound quality with its staging, density and feeling restored to the level of the original recording.

• Attenuator Yes

When you press the Attenuator (the ATT button), it immediately lowers the volume by around 90%. Press once more to return to the original volume level.

• Auto EQ Yes

Let your system take care of your sound. Our new Auto EQ feature monitors and analyses the acoustics inside of your car and uses the measurements to automatically adjust your audio equalisation levels.

Using a 3-band parametric equaliser Auto EQ adjusts the front and rear speakers separately. The result is audio perfectly suited to your in-car environment. (Please note: an optional microphone is required.)

• Auto Time Alignment Yes

The auto time alignment is automatically adjusted for the distance between each speaker and the listening position.

Auto time alignment adjusts the speaker sound output timing within your car for each speaker in steps of 2.5cm, so the sound form each speaker will reach your (the driver’s) ears at the same time.

Auto time alignment automatically estimates the delay from each speaker to the listening position and adjusts the time alignment accordingly.

• Balance Yes

• D/A Converter Digital direct

• Display Off Mode Yes

For those who demand absolute audio perfection, this mode is available to eliminate even the slightest noise that could be created by the OEL displays power conversion circuits.

In this way, the audio signal remains pure and unaffected by noise and unprecedented low distortion is realised.

• Graphic Equaliser 31-band

• High Pass Filter Yes

When the subwoofer is connected and you do not want low sound to play from the front or rear speakers, turn the high pass filter on. Only fre-quencies higher than those in the selected range will be output from the front or rear speakers.

• Low Pass Filter Yes

When you activate the Low Pass Filter, only those frequencies below a specified frequency are output through a specified speaker.

• Loudness Yes

At low volume levels, ambient noise levels in your car can overpower low and high frequency sounds in music.

Loudness control proves a one-button way to boost these frequencies and provide a better overall sound at low level volumes.

• Source Level Adjuster (SLA) Yes

Allows you to independently adjust the volume ratio between all of the headunit's sources (using the FM volume level as a reference), so the start-up volume between sources will always be the same.
