DEH-P480MP

Price$259

The longer you look, the better it gets. First, you see the convenient Flap Face covering the CD slot, the large multicolor display, and the large rotary volume knob. Then you notice that it plays both MP3 and WMA. And that it's ready for Satellite Radio (XM or Sirius) and the hot iPod Adapter.

Flap Face with 16-character Multicolor Display
To take advantage of new media like MP3, WMA, iPod, XM Radio, and Sirius, the DEH-P4800MP features a new 16-character display - twice as large as previous models.  Where's the CD slot? Just press the “Open” button and the face moves out of the way to reveal the CD slot. When you want to take the face with you, just press Open and pull it out.

MP3 and WMA Playback
Don't let your favorite music downloads languish on your computer hard drive. Burn them to a CD-R or CD-RW and play them on the DEH-P480MP. Each disc you burn has the capacity to hold up to ten complete albums of MP3 music and twenty for WMA discs. Trust us, that's a lot of music. And since these CDs hold so much data, you'll be happy to know that Pioneer MP3 headunits also include a random play mode. You'll also be pleasantly surprised to find that our players support ID3 Tags and WMA text, which display artist, title, track and album information, just like your computer. Best of all, Pioneer's Digital Speedread2 CD mechanism provides incredibly fast performance.

BMX (Bit Media eXpander) Digital Enhancement
Compressed file formats such as MP3 and WMA are now as common as the Internet. But there are people who feel that compressed music sounds thin, flat and short of depth. To correct this common problem, Pioneer developed BMX technology. BMX studies what's left of the delicate sound frequencies that are usually ignored and makes the necessary adjustments. This improves the shape and overall depth of sound, which results in enjoyment to the ears, especially in the noisy car environment.

Built-in AUX InputBuilt-in Auxiliary Input
The DEH-P480MP features a new built-in AUX input, which can be easily connected with a wide range of external devices, such as digital audio players.  Simply connect a mini-jack cable to the connector on the back of the unit.

Two-Way Crossover with Direct Subwoofer Key
The Two-Way Crossover Adjustment is a convenient tool for tailoring your sound — and your subwoofer’s levels. Right from your headunit, you can adjust your High-Pass Filter, which will protect your front and rear speakers from power-robbing deep bass notes.  Now, use the Subwoofer adjustments to make sure your bass performance has the kick you like.  In fact, you can just hit the Subwoofer Direct button to fine tune the settings at any time!

Card Remote Included
The DEH-P480MP comes with a card remote, allowing you to control key functions without taking your eyes off the road. It fits easily in your hand, and it's small enough to stash in your console when not in use.
