Sony ES 6.75″ premium car stereo XAV9000ES

Enjoy pure detail in everything you listen to with the XAV-9000ES, our premium Mobile ES™ 2-DIN media receiver. A new 6.75 in (17.1 cm) capacitive HD touchscreen lets you customise audio and visuals easily, and a full suite of connectivity for your smartphone includes LDAC to wirelessly stream High-Resolution Audio with exceptional sound quality.

Flush surface HD display

Our first double-DIN Mobile ES™ media receiver features a new 6.75 inch (17.1 cm) capacitive touchscreen with 1280 x 720-pixel high-resolution. It offers crisp detail, higher brightness and contrast for a superior in-car experience.

Anti-glare design

The internal anti-glare filter hugely improves touchscreen visibility by reducing sunlight reflections, ensuring easier and safer driving.

Premium quality audio and customisation

Experience the same calibre of sound usually reserved for high-end home audio products, thanks to the ESS DAC chip – a premium converter that provides optimum quality, from all your digital music files. With high-performance 32-bit processing and eliminated timing jitter, this D/A converter delivers an unprecedented dynamic range and low harmonic distortion.

Choices for optimum performance

Carefully selected components ensure superb sound quality. The dedicated choke coil features powerful bass while filtering unwanted frequencies, for controlled and dynamic audio reproduction. Audiophile-grade capacitors deliver effortless power for clear and tight bass, while multi-layer polymer capacitors help ensure low overall harmonic distortion and natural sound character.

Built-in 4-channel Class A/B Amp for High-Resolution Audio

Giving unmatched audio quality to the built-in amplifier, a dedicated power circuit is designed for each of the left and right channels, while an overall amplifier block includes updated circuit configurations, patterns, and choices of components, minimising interference. Furthermore, the volume control circuit utilises a select audio IC with less distortion and noise. The results are smooth highs, tight bass, wide dynamic range, and a more accurate soundstage.

Anti-resonance dual-layer chassis

The dual-layer design of the chassis separates analogue and digital circuitry, preventing electromagnetic interference for uncompromised sound quality.

High-resolution wireless LDAC audio

Enjoy the convenience of Bluetooth® wireless audio and exceptional sound quality, thanks to LDAC. Connect compatible devices to stream audio at 96 kHz / 24-bit sampling with data transmission rates up to 3x higher (990 kbps) than conventional Bluetooth.

High-grade 192 kHz / 24‑bit DSP

The 192 kHz / 24‑bit DSP offers pristine sound processing and time alignment, 14-band equaliser, and 8-band parametric equaliser. Together with the updated 3-zone crossover, which enables bi-amp front 2-way speaker drive settings, you can dial in the perfect combination of front, rear and subwoofers.

6-channel time alignment

You can adjust the stereo balance by correcting the arrival time of the sound according to where you sit in the vehicle. Adjust the distance from each speaker to the listening position on-screen in remarkable 0.1 inch or 1 cm increments to realise an ideal soundstage.

14-band EQ

A 14-band EQ lets you adjust the overall sound to your music or taste, allowing you to manually cut and boost 14 different frequencies for all the speaker and subwoofer outputs at the
same time.

8-band parametric EQ

To optimise performance across different speaker configurations, you can use 8-band parametric EQ for each of the 6 channels independently, by cutting and boosting 8 custom frequencies for each speaker and subwoofer output. You can also adjust the Q-factor (adjustment width) for each of the 8 select frequencies.

Bi-amp front 2-way speaker drive settings

Designed for front component speaker configurations, this setting lets you apply independent crossover, PEQ and even time-alignment settings to individual drivers in bi-amp front speakers. Now you can customise sound for each component speaker using the same detailed control normally reserved for front and rear speaker groups.

3-camera trigger inputs

You can see the images of up to three connected cameras when you shift the vehicle’s transmission lever to the reverse position or tap the dedicated icons on the home screen. By utilising the supplied trigger wires, each camera image can be switched on and off, or from one to another automatically by detecting the vehicle’s turn signals or sensing compatible signals such as that for a connected front camera. An adjustable parking guide is also available for reverse gear.

HD Graphical User Interface

The 1280 x 720 HD touchscreen offers an enhanced user interface for safety and ease of use. It features a high-contrast Mobile ES™ colour scheme, as well as customisable wallpaper to suit your vehicle and style.

Simple button controls

The button design features large keys to seamlessly fit with the sleek display. Access volume, source, sound settings and voice control by feel for safe and easy operation on the road.

Quick Wake-up

With the Quick Wake-up feature, you’re ready to go right after turning on the ignition.1

Easy installation, with a compact rear chassis

Despite its double-DIN display, the rear chassis is far smaller than conventional double-DIN units. This makes for much easier installation and leaves plenty of room for cables and other accessories in the space behind the display.
