If you're looking for a video receiver with a great monitor, you've found it. Sony brings its legendary video expertise to the XAV-A1 DVD receiver, with its motorized, retractable 7" LCD monitor. And touchscreen controls give you convenient command over your system.

To make connecting extra audio/video sources (camcorder or game console) more convenient than ever, the XAV-A1 features a front-panel audio/video input. The receiver also has a second audio/video input on its rear panel for another source. For lots of musical variety, you can play the MP3s you've burned to disc. Not just CD, but DVD as well — that's a lot of storage space for a lot of songs.

An audio/video output is available for connecting wireless headphones and a backseat monitor. With those connected, you can engage dual-zone mode while you're driving — you get to listen to one source, such as the radio, up front while your passengers in back enjoy a movie privately. The included wireless remote even lets them take control of the system if they need to.

The XAV-A1 packs plenty of built-in power, so your music and movie soundtracks will always sound forceful. Sony's comprehensive EQ7 sound-shaping system offers seven preset tone curves and a 7-band equalizer so you can make sure your music and movie soundtracks are perfectly adapted to your vehicle's sonic signature.

If you want more oomph, you can send pristine signal to your external amplifiers using the three sets of preamp outputs. And for even more entertainment, you can connect a compatible XM Satellite Radio tuner to the XAV-A1's dedicated input and enjoy over 150 channels of top-quality music, sports, news, entertainment, and much, much more.
