Specialized Audio Parts

Pioneer engineers perform listening tests with expert care to incorporate specially designed parts that are made for superior audio quality. Its high-capacity audio capacitor has particularly strong influence on audio signal input for higher-performance sound reproduction.

Brilliant Full-Dot OEL Display

The Full-Dot OEL display allows you to scroll through your iPod with greater ease, displaying up to three lines in the list mode. The unit also comes with features like 3D animated screensavers and a wider viewing angle range which provides clear, trouble-free viewing from virtually any position, even in sunlight.

USB and Auxiliary Inputs

Connect a USB thumb drive or other device for direct playback of MP3, WMA, or WAV audio files. It's a handy way to grab some tunes before you hit the road. A standard auxiliary input is also provided, so you can connect pretty much any MP3 player or other device for your enjoyment.

Enhanced iPod/iPhone Connectivity

Connect your iPod or iPhone to the USB port, and enjoy music playback and basic controls (track up/down, fast forward, rewind, pause, repeat, and shuffle). Connected iPods will also get a charge, so no worries about depleting your battery.

Pandora Integration

Fans of the Internet music service Pandora, rejoice! Many of Pioneer's 2011 models, including the DEH-8300UB, feature Pioneer's new Pandora Ready feature, which gives you direct control of Pandora through your iPhone. Launch Pandora on your connected iPhone, and you'll be able to experience it through your receiver, complete with bookmarking and thumbs up/down buttons.

AM/FM Radio

Tune into your favorite stations with Pioneer's Supertuner IIID technology, complete with 24 presets.

Advanced Sound Retriever

Hear the detail, warmth and clarity, the way the artist intended it, from all of your highly compressed MP3 and WMA files stored on your USB device, iPod and portable media players. By restoring data (especially higher frequencies) that tends to get lost in the digital compression process, Pioneer's Advanced Sound Retriever technology enhances audio reproduction nearly all the way up to 20 kHz frequencies.

MOSFET Amplification

Powered by Pioneer's MOSFET 50W x 4 amplifier, the DEH-P8300UB serves up serious performance with minimal distortion, for great sound regardless of the source. Three high-volt 4V RCA preouts will deliver clean, powerful signal to your power amplifiers, complete with high- and low-pass filters.

Serious Expandability

The DEH-P8300UB is compatible with Pioneer SAT Radio, HD Radio, and Bluetooth Adapters, so you can add features at a later date.
