Quick wake up

Smarter driving with intelligent voice control

Apple CarPlay makes it easier than ever to navigate, communicate, and play music on the road. Just connect your iPhone to the XAV-AX1000.

Siri with Apple CarPlay

Easily access the iPhone features you know and love, just by talking to Siri. Music maps, phone calls, and messages are all under your control.

Navigating with Apple CarPlay

Tell Siri where you're going and it will give you real-time directions as you drive.

Clear, responsive touchscreen

Enjoy the 6.2" (15.7cm) full-color screen with light touch operation with clear visibility.

Turn or push to control

The ergonomic rotary dial makes operation distraction-free. Turn it to control volume, or push the integrated button to launch sound control menus. Alternatively, hold the button to use voice commands.

Hear music your way

Multiple customization options let you adapt the audio experience to your liking. And with the built-in 4 x 55 W amplification, music sounds clear even at high volumes.

Powerful, clear amplification

Advanced signal processing from the 4 x 55 W Dynamic Reality Amp 2 removes interference, so music sounds clear and detailed. Even when you crank up the volume.

Music that jumps from your dashboard

Sound waves are directional, so if your speakers are in your doors or under your dash, the audio may seem muddy or unclear. Dynamic Stage Organizer adjusts the signal, improving the stereo positioning so music sounds like it's coming from the dashboard.

Sculpt your sound

Tailor the sound to your personal preference with the 10-band graphic equalizer.

Build your own sound system

With the three pre-outs, you can add components of your choice, like extra amplifiers and subwoofers.

Rear view camera ready

Have a rear camera installed? View its feed through the screen, along with customizable guidelines that help you back in safely.

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 cabling and other accessories in the space behind the display.

Better than I expected
Had to get a replacement for my Double DIN Pioneer head unit in the motorhome, which had failed after about 7 years and had cost a fortune when installed and as I was in rush to get a new unit fitted before a trip. I ended up getting this ‘lower end’ Sony unit as it was the only one available. I’m so glad I did, as I discovered the hidden benefits of still having a physical HOME button and also volume control, so no need to tap screens etc for volume and screen changes - excellent when on the move!
No problem with the trailing lead to iphone for Apple Play, which I was a little concerned about. Only slight improvement I can suggest at this time would be a higher definition screen for the reverse camera as it does seem a little blurry on the extreme edges of the screen, which I don’t recall having on the Pioneer unit, but the Sony seems to have a wider and deeper rear view, so not a problem!
All in all I am delighted with the unit, especially at the price - mapping is very clear and defined even using google earth and although Im not a big music person I do find it has a notably superior sound quality and plenty of choices on the graphic equaliser. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend!

Great update for my 2011 Corolla
I have a 2011 with only about 64,000 miles on it. I've thought about a new car but am not eager to take on a new car loan. One of the things the Corolla needed was an updated radio so I had the XAX-AX1000 installed and have been very happy with my decision. The unit is responsive and versatile. I can control it with the existing steering wheel controls with no problem whatsoever. Apple CarPlay is a great addition but Bluetooth connection works very well, also. The audio took a bit of time to tweak because, with a 10-band equalizer, there is quite a bit of adjusting that is possible. Having a backup camera has been an excellent safety addition and I'd recommend that option to anyone installing this radio. For me, there is very little to dislike about this unit. It has breathed new life into my 10-year-old car!

Very pleased with this product
Whilst it is one of the cheaper units don’t let that put you off. I’ve found it excellent with loads of features that all work very well. I’ve fitted it to my vw transporter Campervan.
Very easy to fit but you’ll need to buy a harness kit for your specific vehicle (about £10) and pick up how to fit it either on a forum for your vehicle or a utube tutorial.

Phenomenal Receiver! with one downside
Absolutely love this receiver! The built in amplifier is fantastic and plays beautiful clear and loud music. The user interface in this device is the primary reason I purchased it and it runs phenomenally, smooth, quick, and easy to use. Not too many features to where you get lost they keep it simple yet very effective so you can focus on driving. Only downside is that it doesn't have android autoplay although the competitors in this price range do but the volume knob and user interface makes up for that. Also the peak power output and rms is greater than the competitions. Overall its greatly enhances the sound of your music!

Great for Iphone only
I bought this for my daughter who has an Iphone for her car. Her car is now my car and I have a Galaxy S10 and can't enjoy using this. It is total garbage. Why do companies have to compete at our expense.

Is it work only when you plug apple phone? Without apple phone?
A shopper on Jul 12, 2021
  Yes this will work without your iphone being plugged in via Bluetooth technology to stream your music and iphone apps. Thanks, please let us know if you have any other questions.
I already have a Sirixm tuner. An I just plug the tuner into this head unit?
Grant on Jun 5, 2021
  Hi there and thanks for reaching out to us! As long as the SiriusXM tuner you have is either the SXV-200 or SXV-300, it will plug right into the designated port on the rear of this Sony touchscreen. Hope this helps!
does this fit in a 2001 tj jeep wrangler?
A shopper on May 23, 2021
Will this stereo fit in a 2008 Nissan Rogue?
A shopper on Apr 13, 2021
  Hi there and thanks for you inquiry! Yes, this Sony touchscreen will fit your Rogue, but please note that installation kits are required to have the Sony fit snugly into the dash, tie into the existing sound system, etc.
What is apple car play?
A shopper on Nov 27, 2019
  Hi there! Apple CarPlay is Apple software built into specific touchscreens (such as this Sony) that allows you to connect your iPhone through a USB input that comes with the touchscreen receiver and popular apps are now displayed on the in-dash touchscreen - apps such as Apple Maps, Waze, or Google Maps for navigation, music streaming apps such as Apple Music, Tidal, Spotify, etc., and a whole lot more! It's Apple's way of making drives safer as well as more enjoyable. Hope this helps!
Does it have dab?
A shopper on Sep 7, 2019
  Hello! No, this touchscreen does not have DAB as it's meant for the North American market.
Does it works with Android auto?
A shopper on Sep 3, 2019
  Hi and thanks for reaching out! The XAV-AX1000 does not have Android Auto built-in. It only has Apple CarPlay. If you have a need for Android Auto, check out Sony's XAV-AX5000 model instead. Hope this helps!
