Enhanced User Experience
One of the standout features of the XML8110 is its ability to recharge your iPod® while docked. This ensures that your device is always ready to go, even after long drives. The adjustable side supports provide a secure fit for various iPod® models, ensuring that your device stays in place even on bumpy roads.
The control options are also noteworthy. You can operate the stereo either from the iPod® itself or from the head unit, giving you flexibility depending on your preference. The 240 Watts Peak power output, driven by MOSFET technology, ensures that you get high-quality sound, whether you’re listening to music, podcasts, or Internet Radio.
The solid-state “mechless” design means there are no moving parts inside the stereo, reducing the risk of mechanical failure and extending the lifespan of the device. The inclusion of two pairs of preamp outputs allows for easy expansion of your car’s audio system, giving you the option to add additional speakers or a subwoofer for enhanced sound quality.
The XML8110 also features a 12-character full dot matrix black/white LCD and a 4-character inside black/white LCD, providing clear and easy-to-read information. The fold-down front panel with an integrated iPod® dock is a convenient feature that makes docking and undocking your device a breeze.
For those who prefer a more customized audio experience, the XML8110 offers five selectable preset EQ curves and an adjustable LCD illumination dimmer. The loudness feature enhances the audio output, making your music sound richer and more dynamic.
The inclusion of an infrared remote control adds another layer of convenience, allowing you to control the stereo from a distance. The iplug™ adapter and 1-pair RCA auxiliary input provide additional connectivity options, making it easy to connect other audio devices.
The steering wheel control input (PAC SWI-PS required) allows you to integrate the stereo with your car’s existing steering wheel controls, providing a seamless and safe way to operate the stereo while driving.
The flipdown iPhone Car Dock is $99 and available at Wal-Mart.
