This all-new, top of the line device sets new standards in terms of audio performance and connectivity. Nevertheless, it’s very easy to use and control.

Its integrated DAB/DAB+ tuner lets you enjoy crystal-clear digital audio and interference-free reception. Even better; the included Time Shift function allows you to rewind, pause and resume live DAB transmissions.

High-end audio features, such as FLAC compatibility, a 13-band Graphic EQ, 4 x 50 Watts MOSFET amplifier and Time Alignment make sure you’ll get the very best sound quality from any vehicle the unit is installed in.

The FH-X840DAB easily connects to your Apple iOS and Android devices and also offers extensive Bluetooth connectivity for hands-free calling and wireless music streaming. It’s even possible to connect two Bluetooth phones simultaneously, so you can keep both your private and business phones connected.

DUAL BLUETOOTH

You can now simultaneously connect and control 2 x phones via Bluetooth. This is perfect for drivers who have two phones (work + personal), or when travelling with other passengers. The auto connection function automatically pairs the two phone so incoming calls can be picked up by either of the paired phones

DAB+ Digital Radio

Enhance your radio listening experience in the car with crystal clear reception, as well as more choice of stations. Say goodbye to signal interference when listening to your favourite talk-back or music radio station.

*ANDAB1 DAB antenna is included.

WORKS WITH SPOTIFY

Spotify is now a dedicated audio source, allowing you to directly control the Spotify app on a connected iPhone (via USB or Bluetooth) or Android device (via Bluetooth).  Forget having to touch your phone, you can play, pause and skip tracks, browse playlists, albums and radio stations on the go using the head unit controls.

 

USB DIRECT CONTROL FOR iPHONE

You’re ready to roll with direct connectivity to your iPhone for music playback via an authentic Apple USB to lightning cable. Powerful tools such as Link Search and Alphabet Search help you find content faster. The system’s wired USB connection provides direct digital signal transfer from the device for clean, clear sound, while keeping your iPhone charged.

*We recommend confirming your iPhone® compatibility with our Support team or your local authorised retailer, prior to making a purchase.

ANDROID MUSIC SUPPORT

Take advantage of a wired USB connection to the receiver. Sound stays clean and clear, and song, artist, time and album details are user-friendly.

*We recommend confirming your Android™ smartphone compatibility with our Support team or your local authorised retailer, prior to making a purchase.

SEPARATED COLOR CUSTOMIZATION

Separated Color Customization lets the user match the receiver illumination to their interior lighting. Both the key illumination and screen color can be selected independently.

SIRI® EYES FREE

To minimise distractions even more while driving iPhone users can use voice commands to ask Siri questions to access many iPhone functions such as music selection; making phone calls; and listening to text message, calendar information, and reminders. Users with an iPhone® 4s or newer can take advantage of Siri® Eyes Free functionality with a touch of a button. When activated, Siri voice prompts play through the vehicle’s speakers and the user’s commands and questions are received and transmitted to the receiver using the external microphone.
