Pioneer Premium Digital Media Receiver, DOES NOT PLAY CDs (MVHS522BS)

Pioneer Smart Sync

With Pioneer’s Smart Sync app downloaded on your iPhone or Android, you’ll be able to use your phone’s touchscreen as an easy interface to play music, conduct hands-free calls, use navigation, and even give you 31 bands of EQ. Alternatively, Pioneer MVH-S522BS gives you dedicated buttons to access navigation on your phone and hands-free calling as well as a multi-function knob for text message playback, music selection and more. Pioneer also builds voice control into Smart Sync to make hands-free operation even easier.

Control your iPhone

With iPod and iPhone Direct Control, you can plug your device into the receiver’s USB port and make music selections through the receiver. Plus, the MVH-S522BS will also charge your device while you’re playing your music.

Nice Android perks

Android users can take their choice between controlling their music via Bluetooth or plugging into the front panel USB port and playing music while getting a 1.5-amp quick charge.

Opt for SiriusXM

Add on a SiriusXM tuner for tons of satellite radio programming that won’t fade no matter how far you travel. No matter what your thing is — entertainment, sports, news, and commercial-free music — you’ll find no shortage of options.

Other sources

You can also plug in a thumb drive and enjoy MP3, WMA, AAC, WAV, and high-resolution FLAC files, or use the aux input to connect an MP3 player or portable satellite radio. And with Pioneer’s integrated MIXTRAX virtual DJ technology, your music collection becomes a non-stop playlist, with enhanced transitions and lighting. And, of course, you can also tune in your favorite local AM and FM stations.

Enjoy Pandora and Spotify

Whether you primarily stream songs from Spotify or Pandora, you’ll gain some of your favorite functionality from those streaming services through this receiver.

Expand your system

Get the best sound possible from your music, including time alignment and a 13-band graphic equalizer. Three sets of 4-volt preamp outputs equip you to make it easier to add amplifiers and subs to your system. Download Pioneer’s Smart Sync and you’ll gain even more sound adjustment tools. And if you need a quick Bass Boost for those special tracks, Pioneer puts a dedicated button right by the volume knob.
