Customer Review

Installed this radio in a Honda CR-V in 2005. No sub installed.
Although the CR-V has space for a double DIN kit, I could not use the trim bezel. It is to large to fit. Will have to fabric something.

+ Most important, sound is excellent. (Radio, Bluetooth Spotify ...)
I do not feel any need to replace the original 4 car speakers. Compared to the OEM CD / radio, this unit pushes more out of them.
I do not use any of the advanced audio-Processing features. Turned them all off. (EQ = flat, loudness off, ...) For me, in my car, that sounds best.
+ I connected the unit with a "PC99-X60 Honda CR-V Steering Control Interface". Works fine. Volume Control, source select ... Just a minor point Is that it does not proceed through the radio preset channels, it manually changes / Increases frequency.
+ Phone call quality is good.
+ Price / features is good.
- No auto dim When headlights are turned on. The manual dimmer ON / OFF does not make the Desired dim levels. It is too bright at night. THEREFORE, I set Both colors to RED, to be the least disturbing. (The RGB light show does not interest me much.)
- Spotify does not show track info. This is related to Spotify, not to the Pioneer. Other android programs show info.
On Spotify (android), pressing arrow back on the pioneer restart the song, arrow FWD does next song. Steering Controls 'Mode button' does next song.
- Can only 1 pair phone at a time. (Phone is set for Both media and phone functions) When Fe later on, someone else drives the car, with a phone That was paired Previously, it is Possible That You Have To access the connection menu, go to the 'Device List' and toggle there the Desired phone.
- I did not find the IR remote ctrl in the box.
