cronerd Posted January 8, 2009 Report Share Posted January 8, 2009 just released, who wants to be the first one to buy it and review it for us, hopefully its a step up from the crap P10HD...http://www.pioneerelectronics.com/PUSA/Products/CarAudioVideo/DigitalRadio/HDRadio/GEX-P20HD Quote Link to post Share on other sites
superjet Posted January 8, 2009 Report Share Posted January 8, 2009 I'm surprised it's not nuilt into the decks yet. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
maddog hoek Posted January 8, 2009 Report Share Posted January 8, 2009 there are 2 radios with hd built in now plus built in ipod control (deh-p401hd and 4001hd) Looks like the gex20hd might be home made although I have no data to prove that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

superjet Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 Those decks just come with the external tuner. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tjc005 Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 if you mean built by pioneer, the power plug shows otherwise. that is the directed electronics power cable, not the pioneer one. i doubt it would make any difference, as my issues with the gex-p10hd are with the interface, which isn't likely to change with a new add-on tuner Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Flipper Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 well isnt this just great?!? I just got the 10 last week, 1st one wouldnt recieve ANY channels at all That one went back. Now the 2nd showed up 2 days ago and it recieves "some" channels, but it's still really lame reception. It's Ok once Im on the highway or whatever. I picked up an active antenna with a built in booster which helped some The HU gets better reception with NO antenna then the HD tuner does with the active booster antenna. Now they come out with a new model. I couldnt find anywhere to buy it though. This really sucks LOL Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Flipper Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 OK so I looked into it all. I'm going to send the 10 back (it's only been a few days and they said they'd take it back no problem) I called pioneer and they said that the 20 isnt available for sale yet. Woman said that it'll probably be available sometime in feb. but she was just guessing. So I guess I'll be checking it and ordering one as soon as they are available. It cant be any worse then this lame one I have now. If it is Ill just send that one back too LOL Quote Link to post Share on other sites
maddog hoek Posted January 9, 2009 Report Share Posted January 9, 2009 home made?? Sorry, I meant to say built by Pioneer themselves... One thread around here mentioned that the reason we don't get a list of stations in our preset menus is because Pioneer outsourced the Gex-10. The 2 new radios state that they can pull meta data off of songs playing on the air. Hopefully the new add-on unit will also as well as display correctly on the f90bt.

mattlach Posted January 10, 2009 Report Share Posted January 10, 2009 Figures.. I JUST JUST JUST bought the 10 on eBay, so no returning it... I didn't realize the 10 was problematic Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Yettavr6 Posted January 10, 2009 Report Share Posted January 10, 2009 what's supposed to be better about this one? The 10 seems to work fine for me, except the obvious interface limitations. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I didn't realize the 10 was problematic then you havent been reading the forums, obviously the interface SUCKS ASS and the PRESETS SUCK ASS and basically it SUCKS ASS lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Flipper Posted January 10, 2009 Report Share Posted January 10, 2009 This is an ad for the new DEH-P710BT It looks like the GEX-P20HD can pull song data Now if it'll be displayed properly on the HU is another story but it shows some hope I guess Pioneer offers a World First, iTunes Tagging for FM radio (using RDS data). Tag a song from the radio or to have it's meta data saved to your iPod. You can then plug the iPod to a computer to see a list of your tagged items in iTunes for purchase. And for you digital radio fans, we've also made this feature available for HD Radio (with the GEX-P20HD). Quote Link to post Share on other sites
