Ready for iPod. And a whole lot more.
Take your digital music in-car. With the DEH-50UB, you have the option to connect your iPod directly to the tuner via an optional cable (CD-IU50). This gives you full control via the CD tuner, which also charges your iPod when it's not in use. Convenience and simplicity in one.

You can connect your USB music player, too via the rear USB-in. Or, if you have another source, you can connect it via the rear aux-in. The point is that you can enjoy your entire music collection, whether it's on a CD, iTunes or Windows Media Library, or stored on a number of other devices.
Conveniently, the display of the DEH-50UB shows 16 characters, so recognising long file names from your music library is easier, too.
Controlling all the functions is simple: the DEH-50UB has a rotary commander. This works like a joystick, giving you speedy control over all the functions you need.

"If you love compressed music, you're gonna love the new head unit from Pioneer. The DEH-50UB is 100% ready for iPod action, can connect to a USB music player, and even takes care of the charging. Sweet."
