Pioneer has announced a new lineup of Champion Series Subwoofers and Two-Way Coaxial Speakers, built to enhance the overall sound system in your vehicle. Additionally, Pioneer recently rolled out a firmware update that adds Receiver Internet Access (RIA) and allows users to access the Internet for Alexa functions without requiring a hotspot.

Champion Series Subwoofers, the TS-A301D4 ($140) and TS-A301S4 ($130) are engineered with high-power handling and endurance, a deep bass and durable design components, fitting a wide range of consumer needs. 

Two-Way Coaxial Small Speakers, the TS-A709 ($80) and TS-A879 ($90) are designed to improve the in-vehicle sound experience and provide an OEM-quality speaker upgrade option for most vehicles on the road today. A smooth and seamless listening experience, an easy install process, and a set of speakers that will last them for many more years to come. 

Over-the-Air Firmware and Feature Update for NEX in-dash receivers using the CarAVAssist app (available for download on both iPhone and Android device). Enjoy the convenience of wireless updates while eliminating the hassle of transferring data files through a USB thumb drive. The update supports Apple CarPlay split screen functions, enabling the user to simultaneously display and control both the CarPlay UI and Pioneer audio sources, source controls and tuner presets.

The software update is available for NEX head units released in 2020 and after. Whether you’re looking for the latest sports scores or want to know the weather, consumers no longer have to go back and forth across screens to play the radio and access apps – it’s all accessible through split-screen. The update also features iDatalink Multi-Angle Camera Control (sold separately) + Widget Support for Metra Axxess (sold separately), Mirror Option (2nd / Front Camera), and Spotify playback via Alexa Built-in.
