Let Sony take over the infotainment in your car with the XAV-AX8500 - it's an over-10-inch capacitive touchscreen, with Sony's audio prowess behind it. You can install it into a single-DIN (2-inch) opening, so it'll fit in a lot more vehicles, and you can adjust the angle side-to-side, up & down, plus tilt & swivel for a perfect fit in your dash.
The best part is how well the XAV-AX8500 works with your phone. You can just leave it in your pocket - wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connect automatically every time you turn on your car. You can access your apps right on the gorgeous screen.
Music sounds great, as you'd expect from Sony. Besides standard Bluetooth, you can stream with higher-quality AAC and LDAC codecs, if your phone supports them. You get pinpoint control over your sound, too, thanks to a 14-band EQ and digital time alignment. Time alignment is a key to getting better sound in your car, because it adjusts the timing of your speakers to deliver beautiful, balanced sound to the driver's seat.
The XAV-AX8500 is a great starting point for building a more complex audio system. It's got preamp outputs for front, rear, and sub if you decide to add on. There are three camera inputs also, making this a great screen for when you're towing, driving an RV, or any vehicle in which you'd like to use backup and auxiliary cameras.
