Hi-volt pre-out
By providing a strong signal with less noise and more definition, the hi-volt pre-outs reduce demand on the input circuit of the amps so they can work with lower gain settings. This results in improved sound quality and a wider dynamic range.
IP-Bus control
Pioneer headunits with an IP-Bus connection allow you to hook up a wide variety of source units, thus expanding your in-car experience even further. The IP-Bus connection is used to hook up, for example, hide-away TV tuners and DVD players, or Pioneer's Bluetooth® , iPod and USB adapters.

RCA pre-outs (1, 2, 3) Rotary commander
RCA pre-outs enable you to easily expand your sound system. Depending on whether your headunit comes with 1, 2 or 3 RCA pre-outs, you can customise your sound system with separate amplifiers for the front speakers, the rear speakers, and/or a subwoofer. [. . . ] Your optimum in-car sound system is within reach.

ICEPOWER® POWER-PACKED DIGITAL PURITY
ICEpower® Full-range Class-D (Class-FD) digital ampli er technology offers a solution to the disadvantages of conventional Class-D ampli ers. By combining the unique Controlled Oscillation Modulation (COM) and the Multivariable Enhanced Cascade Control (MECC) system, ICEpower® technology leads to a considerable increase in ef ciency and less distortion compared to conventional Class-D technology. Initially, the analogue signal is turned into a Pulse Width Modulated (PWM) signal by the COM. After passing through the power stage and the output lter, the signals are fed back to the MECC system where they are compared to the original input signal and any differences are compensated for, thus suppressing the distortion introduced in the power stage and output lter. As a result, ICEpower® digital ampli er technology produces cutting-edge audio performance, which combines power with the greatest purity and clarity.

PURE PRS SYSTEM
To get the most from the DEX-P90RS, we strongly recommend you use it in combination with the DEQ-P90, PRS-A900 and the PRS speakers to create a system set-up that suits your sound preference and in-car audio characteristics. Designed to enhance the DEX-P90RS, the DEQ-P90 balances incoming and outgoing signals to match the interior acoustics of your car. In the con guration shown, the external ampli ers are driven by the DEQ-P90's 3 gold-plated hi-volt RCA outputs. These very high-quality outputs use their own balanced plus/minus PWM power supply to minimise noise and distortion. Now you can create the ultimate system with perfectly balanced acoustics.
