Product Overview

Universal iPod adapter with HD Radio and auxiliary audio capabilities. (vehicle specific harness required)

Product Description

Recipient of a 2008 CES Innovations Award, the PXAMG is the first interface ever to bring the iPod, HD Radio broadcasting, and many other portable media products into the vehicle.

The PXAMG also brings the power of HD Radio broadcasting with the help of the Peripheral Electronics HD Radio Tuner (HDRT). Available separately, the HDRT gives users more channels, more content, in exciting new formatsall with no subscription fees.

The PXAMG directly connects your iPod to your radio allowing you to browse your music, by Artist, Album, Genre, and Playlist from the radio controls. This direct connection eliminates the need for noisy FM modulated solutions, and also keeps the iPods internal battery charged. The interface is expandable, by adding the HDRT you will receive digital radio stations that can not be received with a standard tuner. Experience HD Radio and hear FM in CD quality, and AM at FM quality!

Allows connection of any two devices: iPod cable, AUX cable or HD Radio Tuner (sold seperately).
