New Parrot RK8200 Bluetooth Headunit Can Hide Your Secret Stash

Filed under: Car Audio > Head Units / Receivers



France's Parrot has leveraged their experience in wireless peripherals and mobile phone accessories to create the RK8200 Headunit, a car audio and wireless communications powerhouse that can embarrass some of the multi-thousand dollar systems from luxury automakers. A USB port, SD card reader, line-in jack, iPod connector and A2DP Bluetooth stereo wireless connectivity accommodate all manner of digital music sources. There is even a storage space behind the faceplate where something archaic like a CD player's internals would normally go. As if that weren’t enough, there’s also internal memory for "over 300 Mp3's" (roughly 1.5 – 2GB).

Pair the RK8200 with your Bluetooth enabled mobile phone, and you'll get automatic phonebook synchronization with a total storage capacity of 8,000 contacts, hands free calling, voice recognition, and intelligent microphone switching with noise reduction to ensure the best possible call quality. The RK8200 should be available in the UK by the end of the year, for a surprisingly affordable £149.99 ($302).
