Sleek, stylish, and ever so capable, Pioneer's DEH-2200UB CD receiver will improve your car's sound and allow you to you enjoy all your digital media.

The large control knob is positioned on the driver's side, flanked by a series of easy-to-reach buttons, so you won't have to drill down through the receiver's menus each time you want to make an adjustment. On the passenger side, a bright 10-digit display puts system and song info in easy view. And a handy remote gives your rear seat passengers the ability to run the show.

Plug your iPod® or thumb drive into the front-panel USB input and you'll have thousands of songs on tap for daily drives or road trips. You can also connect a plug-and-play satellite radio or another audio source to the handy front-panel auxiliary input. And don't forget your CDs — the receiver plays your favourite store-bought or home-burned CDs, including discs loaded with MP3 or WMA files.

Audio performance will take a jump when Pioneer's powerful MOSFET amplifier fills your car with sound, and you can use the 3-band equalizer to tweak the lows, mids, and highs. All your digital music will sound great, too — Pioneer's Advanced Sound Retriever technology reverses the effects of compression to improve the sound of your music files.

Note: If you're going to use your iPod with this receiver, be sure to check "Hands-on Research" for specific iPod model compatibility with this receiver or its optional iPod adapter.
