Highlight Features:
Audiophile-grade Components
A few years ago, Alpine released the AlpineF#1Status series of ultra-high performance audio components. Many of the lessons learned from developing those models, about high-grade parts and how to apply them, are now being put to good use in products like the PXA-H800. One example is the use of four Wolfson 24-Bit D/A converters, which are generally found only in professional recording systems and help to ensure superb detail and soundscape. Another is the use of two 32-Bit floating-point SHARC DSPs, which precisely reproduce the sound source with no degradation. Other top quality parts are a 6-layer PCB and a 24-Bit A/D converter for high quality RCA input and 114dB dynamic range at the device level.
RoadEQ
Even superior sound can be degraded by problems like road noise, wind noise and air conditioner noise. RoadEQ uses a microphone to record the music plus noise inside the vehicle. It compares the original and recorded signals, then creates frequency-specific level adjustments to cancel the noise components. A powerful processor performs these operations at 48,000 times per second.
Euphony
Euphony makes it possible to enjoy 5.1-channel sound from 2-channel sources. It creates natural surround sound from CD or iPod with wider soundscapes and harmonics. It especially enhances vocal and instrumental quality, for a superior sound field and no listener fatigue.
True 5.1-channel Surround Sound
You can hear multi-channel sound from movie and music sources in the Dolby Digital and DTS Digital Surround formats. The unit also provides Dolby Pro Logic II decoding, so you can even enjoy stereo recordings in surround sound.
ImprintEQ
The PXA-H800 turns any factory head unit into a sophisticated ImprintEQ audio system, with sound that is perfectly clear and precisely balanced for the best possible tonal response and imaging in your vehicle. If you’re serious about upgrading your system, start with the PXA-H800.
Extensive EQ Capabilities
The PXA-H800 provides both graphic and parametric equalisation. The graphic EQ provides 31 bands for each of the five channels, plus 10 bands for the subwoofer, with gain from –12 to +12dB. The parametric EQ lets you select a band and then adjust the output level and width for precise tuning. You get 10 bands for each of the five channels, plus 5 for the subwoofer, with detailed Q settings and gain from –12 to +12dB.
