PKG-RSE3DVD headphones

Alpine includes two wireless headphones so that the kids in the back can enjoy their movie . . . quietly.

Audio avenues

Create the feeling of surround sound by tuning audio from the PKG-RSE3DVD through your car speakers with the built-in FM modulator, or connect it to your stereo's auxiliary input. If the sound of Decepticon laser blasts or clanging swords is too distracting to the driver, back-seaters can listen privately via two included, wireless headphones. You can give the kids full independence with Alpine's full-function wireless remote, or if you'd like a little more parental control, keep the remote handy to get their attention if you need to.

For the best viewing angle, you can manually tilt the monitor up and down 180-degrees. You also can adjust the following picture settings of the monitor.

  • Backlight Brightness: Adjust the monitor's backlight brightness to Low, Mid, or High.
  • Picture Mode: Select between six preset pictures modes - Standard, Vivid, Game, Sport, Cinema, or Custom.
  • Custom Mode: The Custom mode allows you to manually adjust the monitor's contrast, brightness, color, and tint (+/-7).

DVD Player: The Alpine PKG-RSE3DVD 's built-in, slot-load DVD player supports playback of DVD-Video, DVD+R/RW,  and DVD-R/RW discs; along with XviD video, JPEG photo, and MP3 music files.

AV Input/Outputs: The PKG-RSE3DVD overhead monitor is equipped with two audio/video inputs for connecting external audio/video sources to the PKG-RSE3DVD. Each audio/video input consists of a composite video jack and stereo RCA jacks. The Alpine overhead monitor also features a composite video output with stereo RCA output for connecting this unit to your vehicle's in-dash multimedia head unit.

Built-In FM Transmitter: The Alpine PKG-RSE3DVD overhead monitor features a built-in FM transmitter used to supply audio from the unit over RF frequency to your factory head unit which is not equipped with an auxiliary or AV input. The built-in FM modulator's frequency is selectable between 88.1 MHz and 92.1 MHz, in 0.2 MHz steps.

IR Headphones: The PKG-RSE3DVD includes a built-in infrared transmitter for use with the supplied headphones (SHS-N106). The transmitter and headphones have two channels (Channel A = 2.3/2.8MHz or Channel B = 3.2/3.8MHz), to avoid any interference. The headphone volume is adjusted using the integrated controls on each headset. The pair of headphones each operate off of two "AAA" batteries. Additional wireless headphones (500SHSN106, sold separately) are available.

LED Dome Lights: The roof mount monitor contains white LED dome lights that can be manually turned on or off with a switch on front of the unit. The unit's LED dome lights can also be wired to your factory dome lights so they turn on and off whenever your interior factory lighting turns on or off with the opening of your vehicle's doors.

Remote Control: In addition to the unit's hard-key controls along the frame, the roof mount monitor comes supplied with an IR wireless remote control that operates all the functions of the unit.

Mounting: The Alpine PKG-RSE3DVD mounts to roof of your vehicle with the supplied metal mounting bracket and supplied hardware. The PKG-RSE3DVD comes supplied with interchangeable, snap-on Black, Grey, and Tan plastic frames to match your vehicle's interior.

Q
Description says" this system accepts video input from an iPod®, iPhone®, iPad® or video game console." How is this done? Do you airplay from the iPhone? Does this screen have bluetooth? Or is it a wired connection from your iPhone? Just curious if you can play movies from your phone onto the screen. Thanks

We have not received any answers from other customers on your question. I would recommend reaching out to an Advisor by phone (1-800-324-9695) or online chat. They should be able to help answer your question.

Q
Can this unit be installed (with some modification of course) in place of the factory installed overhead video system on a 2007 Ford Freestyle? If so, does an adapter or harness exist that can tap into and use the existing wiring already in place?
kevin  Oct 02, 2018
1 answer
A
Sorry, no. It is not vehicle-specific. You may be able to tap/splice some of the factory wires for power & ground but there is no pre-fabricated harness. For additional assistance and personalized recommendations, feel free to contact us directly by phone or through our online chat service: https://www.crutchfield.com/support/ContactUs.aspx

You would be better served by contacting an Advisor direct by phone (1-800-324-9695) or online chat to get more information on the Alpine PKG-RSE3DVD in your '13 Sienna. They can discuss the installation with you in greater detail to figure out if this is something you want to do. If not, they can also go over alternative solutions to better fit your needs.

Not Sure but we buy the bluray with dvd or digital copy. That was our solution. We mainly have blurays also.

Q
Can this unit be hardwired to run through speakers of the vehicle?
shannony432589468  Feb 12, 2016
1 answer
A
There are many ways to getting the audio out of this Alpine system so that it can be hard wired to most radios and played through the speaker system in a vehicle. I recommend calling an advisor on 1-800-324-9695 to see if there is a way to hard wire the audio with your radio. I hope that helps! My Bio: http://www.crutchfield.com/Support/Bio.aspx?bio=101

How is this unit powered?
jaime  Nov 09, 2014

A
It is powered by 12 Volts DC. There is also a 12 Volt DC remote wire that turns the unit on and off when the car is on or off.
james arthur  Nov 10, 2014
A
Power would need to be connected the same way a car stereo is connected; one constant power and one ignition power. you can use the leads from the overhead light since this unit has lights built in it can even replace your overhead light depending on your vehicle.

Is it capable of playing/reading a dvd if it is not mounted other than flat with the roof?
mikee b.  Apr 18, 2014
1 answer
A
I forwarded your question to an Advisor and they responded with the following: That unit is designed to be an overhead piece, but if you want to install it elsewhere I don't see why it wouldn't work. I hope that helps. If you would like to discuss further you can contact an Advisor directly by phone (1-800-324-9695) or online chat.
