Parrot RK8200 Bluetooth enabled Car Stereo

Parrot RK8200
Not only does the Parrot RK8200 FM/AM RDS car stereo feature an impressive array of digital and analog connections, it also provides a built in Bluetooth hands-free kit with sophisticated telephony functions. Both music and voice conversations are reproduced over the vehicles speakers.

Digital Music
Featuring an iPod connector, USB Flash drive port, USB MP3 player, SD card reader and a line-in socket for analog sources, the RK8200 certainly provides users with many choices on how they supply their digital music. Playback is also supported for files sent from any Bluetooth enabled mobile phone or player that is compatible with the Bluetooth stereo A2DP profile. A 1GB internal Flash memory is also available for storing MP3 music.

Bluetooth hands-free kit
The Parrot RK8200 provides advanced hands-free functions that include automatic phonebook synchronization and TTS speech synthesis. There is no need to take your phone out of your pocket when making a call, simply browse the list of contacts on the car stereo's screen and say the names in the phonebook. When a call is received, music is automatically muted and the contacts name is displayed. At the end of the call, music will automatically switch back on.
The RK8200 also implements Parrot's new DCBM (Dynamic Choice or Best Microphone) noise reduction technology to provide crystal-clear, fully intelligible voice conversations.

Innovative user interface
A bright 2.4-inch TFT screen with 262 144 colours, large rotary command button and a practical storage compartment located behind the front panel are the standout features of the RK8200's user interface. The combination of the bright TFT screen and rotary command button allows users to easily browse through their music library, album covers, artist's names and tracks. The front panel can be removed to provide access to a practical storage compartment where a mobile phone, USB Flash drive or MP3 player, etc, can be stored.
