About the Blaupunkt Memphis 440BT
Affordable media hub for your car
Affordable media hub for your car
It's not often you see a touchscreen receiver like Blaupunkt's Memphis 440BT at a price point like this. But don't worry, this Blaupunkt doesn't skimp on features. The receiver's 6.2" display lets you quickly access your music and movies on DVD, CD, SD cards, and USB drives. Built-in Bluetooth® provides hands-free calling and wireless audio streaming convenience. (Note: this radio's face is wider than typical double-DIN car stereos, so it won't work with most dash kits. Please identify your vehicle to find out if it'll fit in your dash.)
Wireless streaming and hands-free calling
The Memphis 440BT lets you stream music from any Bluetooth-equipped device that's paired to the receiver, including music stored on the phone and from Internet radio stations like Pandora® and Spotify®. For hands-free calling clarity from your paired phone, Blaupunkt also built in a sensitive Bluetooth microphone into the receiver's faceplate for a simpler installation.
Awesome video options
You can view movies and video on the 6.2" screen when your car is parked, and it also works as a great display for system and song info. If you want to share the fun, you can install a rear video screen and play movies on the go to keep the backseat posse happy. They can even control DVD playback using the included wireless remote control. Two camera inputs let you install front- and rear-view cameras for easy viewing right from the receiver's screen.
Audio goodies
For your music fix, you can slide in just about any disc, even a recordable DVD or CD loaded with MP3 or WMA files. The USB port, SD card slot, and auxiliary input offer plenty of other ways to check out all your media. The Memphis 440BT includes an 8-band equalizer with seven EQ presets for refining your sound. You can also engage one of six "surround" modes to make your music come alive in a different venue, such as a concert hall or church. If you want some added impact to your tunes, a full set of preamp outputs makes it easier to connect amplifiers for your speakers and a subwoofer.
Bluetooth note: Use of this receiver's Bluetooth features will depend upon your phone's Bluetooth capabilities. Learn more in our article explaining Bluetooth profiles.
