This is the last frontier of aftermarket head units: large floating display, high resolution audio and integrated DSP. These are precisely the strengths of the XAV-9550ES, head unit at the top of Sony’s prestigious ES line. The standard 1-DIN chassis can be inserted into most car compartments, while the large 10.1-inch display, with capacitive and floating touch, guarantees perfect use everywhere. With a DSP from the ADAU family of Analog Devices, it allows the processing of audio information, enriching it with functions such as equalizers, crossovers and time delays in standard or even two-way-plus-sub systems. The ability to natively play HD files up to 32/768, DSD up to 512x, and LDAC via Bluetooth, combines with the quality of the ESS DAC to guarantee maximum musical quality. The 4×55 watt internal amplifier allows for immediate listening while connectivity is guaranteed by 3 video inputs for security cameras, and by wi-fi which allows advanced management of the functions of each associated smartphone. Thanks to its features and the build quality, Sony XAV-9550ES establishes itself as the most advanced aftermarket head-unit for cars on the market today.
