Pioneer AVH-Z9200DAB Car Vision Multimedia Receiver

great stereo and the seller like a gentleman within 12 hours he delivered it and exact time. Keep up the spirit car seller (car Audio). stereo is wonderful. thank you very much and also i would request others if want to buy buy from this seller he is the perfect for it.

The Good:Sound quality is noticeably improved over my rather old Pioneer P7900UB using the same speaker setup (OE speakers wired to headunit, and additional subwoofer).Really pleased with the time alignment feature and the ability to automatically set it up using a front accessible socket for the optional microphone.FM reception is as good as the old Pioneer stereo, getting traffic announcements for far away places completely irrelevant to me. Having not had a DAB car radio previously I don't have much of a baseline for comparison, but reception seems pretty good compared with my in home DAB radio. I suspect it's mostly down to the aerial used though. I went for the Hama roof mount one. It's a shame there doesn't seem to be a way to view signal strength though.I like the tiltable front screen, but the only annoyance is at certain angles the screen reflects light from the windows which limits the usable range. The removable front is potentially useful to deter theft, though it is quite chunky.The not so good:One of the reasons I bought this stereo is it hints at the possibility of wireless Android Auto. I have since found out this feature is only offered by Google Pixel phones. There is a workaround that allows you to enable it on other phones. It's usable though doesn't always seem to work perfectly. The workaround involves activating Google Play Services beta, and installing a newer APK of Android Auto than is available on Play Store at the time of writing this review. I suspect the feature will be enabled once they iron out any issues. (Edit: wireless Android auto seems to be available as standard now, as "wireless projection" is settings within Android auto on the phone).The only difference between this and the 9100 is that the 9100 features AppRadio mode, the 9200 has Weblink mode instead. In my opinion you'll only try either of these modes once, find out how pointless they are, and just use the Android Auto/Apple Car Play that you bought it for. Some have even managed to upgrade the 9100 to a 9200 by flashing firmware, which suggests no/minimal hardware changes between models. If the 9100 can be had significantly cheaper that's probably the model to go for, the only risk being the possibility of no official future firmware upgrades.Waze on Android Auto is currently unable to take advantage of the stereo's onboard GPS, though this is a limitation of Waze.Audio level sometimes "ducks" out for no apparent reason. Almost like Android Auto/Waze is about to speak but decides not to. Need to investigate this further. It's possibly because my phone is receiving a notification and I can't hear the notification tone. (Edit: this no longer seems to be the case, I suspect phone/app updates have fixed it).
