Does anyone know what the highest setting for volume is in terms of numbers? Mine gets too loud for listening at about 20, but I want to know what the maximum for the unit is. Thanks in advance.
-
Thanks for the info. Not sure it would make much of a difference. I’m surprised they haven’t improved more than this.

Does anyone know if the latest NEX models like the W8400 or W8500 have faster processors for reading data than older models like the 4000?
I'm getting tired of how slowly my 4000NEX reads external drives and was hoping an upgrade might solve the problem.

I really don't know what more than the 8400 you would need? I just installed it and it's a monster. Works perfect and the wireless CarPlay is game changing.
How long does it take to boot up?

Sorry for the delay. It't the DDX9905S, 720P screen resolution. It has a 13 band EQ and time alignment. It does not have built in GPS.
Sounds like a nice unit. Would be great to have a 720p screen.

They releasing about 7-10 new NEX radios. But they won't be for sale til apirl- may
Where did you hear this? And do you know any more details?
-
Which Kenwood model are you considering? And do they have the same EQ/time alignment capabilities as the NEX?
-
Anyone know when we might hear about new models of the NEX series for 2019? I'm wondering if they'll announce anything at CES next week.
I've been thinking about getting a W8400NEX, but I don't want to do it if a newer model is about to be released.

I have IOS 11 and CarPlay works just fine for me on my 4000NEX. As mentioned above, try restarting your phone
-
The only thing I can suggest is that I know the artwork can't be larger than 600x600, but I'm guessing that's not the problem if it shows in Mixtrax.

One thing that helped the read time considerably on my 256GB flash drive is going through and eliminating all the unnecessary tags from my music files. You'd be surprised how many can be embedded into each file, and they all have to be read if they're there. Use MP3tag (works for flac files too) and select all files, view extended tags, and delete everything except artist, album, track, etc. Doing this cut my read time at least in half.
-
I'm not a big fan of the changes. The screen is much too busy now, and the Music app has way too much going on in the Now Playing screen, with links to the album and Up Next across the top. Looks like kind of a mess to me.

I have a 4000NEX currently on 1.09. Is there any benefit or extra features to be had by upgrading to 1.14? Just wondering if it's worth the effort.
-
Did you have the problem before the 1.14 update or only after?
-
There's no way a firmware update should take four hours. Something is definitely very wrong.

Honestly I downloaded the new 9.3 beta on my iPhone and the improvements to carplay leave me pretty happy with my old NEX-4000 radio. I would love to have a capacitive screen so I would have the better version of carplay, but it is nice that I can plug in both my phone and my girlfriend's iPhone at the same time and use my phone to navigate while her phone plays music. Pioneer keeps providing bug fixes and the radio definitely performs better than the day I got it. I don't know, I really like the JBL, but I don't know if I like it enough to go through the work of swapping radios.
Why can't you play music and navigate with one phone? When I use Carplsy, I use both Maps and Music at the same time. Not sure why you need a second phone.

I watched the CES demos of the original nex units. The 4000-8000. They were supposed to have these features from the start. Hell. The demos were nearly identical. This is not guaranteed until they launch and honestly there are better radios from Kenwood for that money that are where people's money should go if they want those features. Me? I don't give a damn about that. My car doesn't have that. I'm buying the JBL radio. 400 bucks for capacitive is nice for me.
Anybody know if the JBL has time alignment and decent EQ and all that?
-
Finally got an answer through a YouTube video. The big changes with this year are auto switching between android auto and CarPlay and more powerful idatalink support.
That's it? That's a year's work for Pioneer?
-
Can you explain what SMD devices are? I'd love to know more about how to tune my setup. Thanks.
-
I have the 4000NEX and use Apple Maps all the time. I don't miss the built-in nav at all.
-
Same issue here.
-
Tried it. Nothing going.
I will say this. I did add the "good" app for my corporate email. Did you think that could be killing it?
I'm really not sure what you mean by that.
-
This kind of thing can usually be fixed by just doing a hard reset on the phone.
-
Sounds like the CarPlay situation all over again

Just installed it today. Not crazy about the 5x2 layout, as now all the icons are much smaller. Anyone know if there’s a way to change that layout?
