A complete, integrated Bluetooth car stereo
The Parrot RK8200 is an FM/AM RDS car stereo, featuring all the connections required for digital and analogue music. It is also a Bluetooth hands-free kit boasting sophisticated telephony functions. Completely built into the vehicle's audio system, music and conversations are reproduced over the vehicle's speakers for maximum listening quality.
Dedicated to digital music
A car stereo has never provided so many connections: specific iPod connector, port for a USB flash drive and USB MP3 player, SD card reader and a line-in socket for analogue sources. The Parrot RK8200 also plays files sent by Bluetooth (compatible with Bluetooth stereo A2DP) from a Bluetooth mobile phone or player. Over 300 MP3 tracks can be stored in its internal memory.
A cutting-edge Bluetooth hands-free kit
The Parrot RK8200 features the most advanced hands-free telephony technologies. The phonebooks on the mobile and RK8200 are automatically synchronised. You can receive your calls without needing to take the phone out of your pocket, you can browse the list of contacts on the car stereo's screenand listen to the kit say the names in the phonebook (TTS speech synthesis). You can also make calls using the built-in voice recognition feature. When a call comes in, the contact's name is displayed and the music is automatically muted, only to be switched back on at the end of the call.
An innovative interface
All the information from the Parrot RK8200 or phone is displayed on a particularly bright 2.4-inch TFT screen with 262 144 colours. You can easily browse through your music library and view the album covers, artists' names, tracks, and so on. The keypad sports an ergonomic, modern design, and the main commands are accessed by means of a sleek central rotary button. A highly practical storage compartment is located behind the removable front panel: ideal for hiding a phone, MP3 player or USB flash drive.
Crystal-clear conversations
The Parrot RK8200 features all of Parrot's innovations in terms of signal processing. The two microphones built into the front panel take advantage of Parrot's new DCBM noise reduction technology (Dynamic Choice of Best Microphone): the RK8200 automatically detects the position of the person speaking and dynamically chooses the active microphone. It is a truly full-duplex hands-free kit / car stereo with echo cancellation, so that all your conversations are crystal-clear and fully
intelligible in all circumstances.
Powerful, configurable sound
Equipped with a 180W amplifier and unique sound effects like "Virtual Super Bass", this car stereo adjusts the volume according to the surrounding noise, giving you a new music experience. Seven equaliser bands allow you to fine-tune the settings to suit your vehicle's acoustics or your preferences, unless you opt for one of
the 11 predefined settings.
