In-dash flip out monitors are becoming a more popular option. In vehicles where a double din sizes radio’s can’t fit without cutting, they’re a great fit! Power Acoustik has revolutionized the screen size, and implanted a new rotary flip out mechanism that allows them to fit an 8.3” monitor, in a single din chassis. This allows for a screen size that is 38% larger than traditional in-dash flip out receivers!
Power Acoustik started by integrating a brand new user-interface that showcases clean, large icons that bare resemblance to those found on an iPhone. The menu will transition cleanly with a built in graphics system to make the menu’s change seamlessly and simple to navigate.
With multiple models all offering different features, the first model is the Power Acoustik PTID-8300NR. Boasting with its large 8.3” display, this in-dash receiver proves that it can be considered anything but entry level. Some features this unit has to offer are its input sources, such as USB, and Auxiliary inputs. Finally, it also offers expandability options of add-on Navigation with their NAVIBOX-1, and also iPod connectivity with the IC-2.
Hands-free cellular phone usage is a feature that’s becoming almost required. A lot of states now by law only permit cell-phone conversations if they’re being carried out over a Bluetooth device. Power Acoustik has included a model with built-in Bluetooth as well – the Power Acoustik PTID-8310NRB. This unit gives you additional features of being able to carry about phone conversations through the radio.
If multimedia was your main goal with this new large in-dash receiver, the Power Acoustik PTID-8300NRT will have you covered. A built-in TV Tuner will allow for one of the most integrated multimedia experiences currently available on the market! And finally, for those of you searching for the one that just has it all – the Power Acoustik PTID-8310NRBT has everything built-in. For this price you’ll get the built-in Bluetooth, the built-in TV Tuner and all of the great playback options like the USB and Auxiliary inputs. The PTID-8300NRBT has similar expandability options and you can add on Navigation and iPod connectivity with their required accessories.
