Pioneer deh p3900 manual

I keep my musical interests satisfied by volunteering as a classical music DJ at a local community radio station, and I stay up to date with the latest in outdoor tech by cycling, running, and backpacking. Fun facts: I've completed an Ironman triathlon, run the Boston Marathon, hiked miles of the Appalachian Trail, and lost on Jeopardy! The character display doesn't cut off your song and artist info, like common 8-character displays will.

Whatever you play, the strong onboard amplifier will make it sound great. Make quick sound adjustments with Easy EQ's six preset tone curves, or dive into the highly adjustable bass, midrange, and treble controls for custom tuning. Or, if your ears are tuned to the heavens, connect a satellite radio instead. Like keeping it simple? Just plug your player of choice into the handy front-panel auxiliary input for a direct audio connection.

Use the included remote to control your Pioneer receiver while you keep your eyes on the road. Excellent sound; easy to install. Combined with XM tuner for seamless install. Note on the Jetta: When ordering I was given a warning that some dash modification was needed. I found that no modifying was needed Average review: reviews.

More power means louder and cleaner music at higher volumes because you're not pushing the limits of the amplification circuit. This pre-detection of interference enables quick filter control and results in less distortion.

In addition, the Supertuner IIID creates enhanced stereo during multi-path interference, unlike conventional tuners that collapse to mono. Digital processing reduces distortion, and improves Signal-to-Noise Ratio and stereo separation. Advanced analog technology improves signal processing sensitivity. The tuner has 3 FM banks and 1 AM bank. You can store 6 presets for each bank giving you a total of 18 FM presets and 6 AM presets. Local Tuning: Local seek tuning lets you tune in only those radio stations with sufficiently strong signals for good reception.

There are 4 level of sensitivity for FM and two levels for AM. The higher settings allow reception of only the strongest stations, while lower settings let you receive progressively weaker stations. MP3 files with a bit rate from kbps, WMA files with a constant bit rate from kbps, and WMA files with a variable bit rate from kbps are supported. The unit is compatible with ID3 Tags and will display artist, folder, file, and album name, plus comments.

Up to 8 directories, 99 folders and files per disc are recognized by this unit. Note: When playing compressed audio, there is no sound on fast forward or reverse. It also shortens the audio gap between files during random playback.

Features of the Easy EQ include:. Selectable Loudness Levels: Loudness compensates for deficiencies in the low and high frequencies at low volumes.

You can choose from three levels of loudness:. Once AUX 1 is selected as a source, you can change the source display of the input to any 8-character name.

A second auxiliary device can be connected to this unit when an optional adapter is connected to the IP-Bus connector on the rear panel. This auxiliary input known as AUX 2 must be turned on, and an 8-character name for the input can be stored in memory.

See below for more information on the 2nd Auxiliary Input. The 8-character name of the connected auxiliary component can be entered into memory, and will appear as you cycle through the sources. Subwoofer Output: The unit has a pair of dedicated non-fading RCA subwoofer outputs with a low-pass filter, phase adjustment, and output level that can be turned On or Off. When the rear preamp outputs are set to "Subwoofer", the rear speaker outputs also switch from full range to subwoofer.

This enables you to connect the rear speaker leads directly to a small subwoofer without an external amplifier, either to dual 4-ohm voice coil sub, or bridged into a single voice coil, 4-ohm sub. The bridged output is 70 watts max. Note: When the rear output setting is set to "Subwoofer" you cannot change the subwoofer control settings.

You also cannot fade from front to rear with this setting On. The HPF has a selectable cutoff frequency 50, 63, 80, , or Hz. Only frequencies higher than those in the selected range are output through the speakers. You can select a desired level of bass boost between 0 and 6. Front Image Enhancer FIE : The Front Image Enhancer attenuates mid- and high-frequency sounds from the rear speakers at selectable crossover points, so that most of the vocals will come from the front speakers, giving you better image staging.

You can select from the following cutoff frequencies: Hz, Hz, and Hz. Each function may be set to one of two levels or off. The "COMP" function compresses the audio signal to eliminate distortion caused by the imbalances between the loudest and softest sounds when played at high volumes.

The "BMX" function controls sound reverberations to give playback a fuller sound. If there are less than 10 tracks on the disc, the unit will jump to the last track.

Source Level Adjustment SLA : This function lets you adjust the volume level of each source to prevent radical changes in volume when switching between sources. Settings are based on the volume level of the FM tuner, which remains unchanged. Disc Naming: You can use the disc title input feature to store up to 48 CD titles in the unit's memory.

Each title can be up to 8 characters long. This large display makes it easy to read and cycle through the song title, artist, and other text used by these sources. When the Clock Display has not been turned on, pressing and holding the source button turns the unit off completely. Even if you have turned the radio completely off you can view the clock display be pressing the clock button.

The clock will then remain On until you turn it back Off. A face-fixing screw is supplied for making the face non-detachable, if desired. Note: No face case is included with this unit.
