Easy installation with a compact rear chassis

Despite its double-DIN display, the rear chassis is far smaller than conventional double-DIN units. This makes for much easier installation, and leaves plenty of room for cabling and other accessories in the space behind the display.

With Sony’s quick wake up features, you’re ready to go right after turning on the ignition

Dynamic Stage Organiser creates virtual speakers on your dashboard

Sound waves are directional, especially in the higher frequencies — so if your speakers are positioned low in your doors, high frequency sounds are often lost, reducing clarity and instrument separation. Dynamic Stage Organiser uses digital signal processing to lift the sound, improving stereo positioning so music sounds like it's coming from right in front of you.

FLAC compatible

FLAC compatibility lets you play lossless audio files, so you enjoy every detail of the music.

4 x 55W amplification for clear, powerful sound

The Dynamic Reality Amp 2 gives you 4 x 55W of power, so you can play music as loudly or softly as you like. The amp has 47% less internal resistance than conventional units, for increased output and clear, natural sound at any volume.
