Pioneer DEH-150MPG car stereo is a 1-DIN in-car CD receiver for everyday music and radio listening. It plays audio CDs and MP3, WMA and WAV files from CD-R or CD-RW discs. Front AUX and USB inputs expand the choice of sources. Its single RCA output can be assigned either to the rear channel or to a subwoofer, while the 5-band graphic equaliser helps tailor the sound inside the vehicle.
Pioneer DEH-150MPG car stereo is a 1-DIN in-car CD receiver for listening to music and FM or AM radio. It is designed for vehicles with a 1-DIN installation slot. The model includes a CD player, a USB input and an illuminated front AUX input.
Music sources
The CD player plays standard audio CDs as well as recordable CD-R and CD-RW discs. MP3, WMA and WAV files can be played from CD-R and CD-RW media. Random playback is useful when listening to larger music collections.
Last-position memory allows disc playback to continue from the point at which it was previously stopped. MP3 text and CD Text information can be shown on the display, helping you identify a track when the relevant data is stored on the disc.
The front AUX input is intended for connecting an external music device with an analogue audio cable. Its illumination makes the socket easier to locate in a dark vehicle interior. A USB input further expands the available choice of sources.
Connecting to the car audio system
There is one RCA line output, which can be assigned either to the rear channel or to a subwoofer. It cannot perform both functions at the same time.
When configured for the rear channel, the output can send a signal to a separate amplifier. Subwoofer mode is intended for a system with a suitably connected low-frequency circuit. The Direct Sub Drive function provides an additional option for controlling the subwoofer channel.
The unit has a wired remote-control input and a separate steering-wheel remote-control input. For the steering-wheel buttons to operate, the connection must suit the control system used in the particular vehicle. The 1-DIN format defines the size of the installation slot, but it does not define the type of vehicle connectors.
Sound adjustment
Source level adjustment helps balance the volume when switching between radio, disc, AUX or another input. This reduces sudden changes in volume between different sources.
The 5-band graphic equaliser lets you adjust individual frequency ranges to suit the vehicle’s acoustics and the music being played. It is best to begin with a neutral setting and then adjust each band in small steps.
A high-pass filter can limit the low frequencies sent to the vehicle’s main speakers. The low-pass filter is intended for the subwoofer channel. Both filters should be adjusted together so that the frequency ranges do not overlap excessively or leave a noticeable gap.
Advanced Sound Retriever provides an additional playback-processing option. It is worth comparing the sound with the function both enabled and disabled. The preferred setting will depend on the quality of the recording and the sound of the vehicle’s audio system.
According to the seller’s information, the MOSFET maximum power rating is 50 W × 4.
Radio and information display
The D4Q RDS FM/AM tuner provides 24 station presets. The BSM function can store the stations with the strongest reception. Both automatic and manual tuning are also available.
RDS functions include programme-type search, traffic announcements and automatic alternative-frequency search. Alternative-frequency search helps the tuner find another frequency carrying the same station. PTY search allows stations to be selected according to programme type.
The single-line LCD display holds 12 characters and supports Cyrillic characters. The display illumination is white, while the button illumination is green.
Detachable front panel
The front panel is detachable, and a protective case for it is included. Once the panel has been removed, the case protects its controls and display while it is being carried or stored in the vehicle.

FAQ
Will this car stereo fit every vehicle?
It is designed for a 1-DIN installation slot. The type of electrical connectors used by a vehicle is not determined by the 1-DIN dimensions alone. The required connection therefore depends on the wiring installed in the particular vehicle.
Which music source should I use?
Audio CD mode is suitable for standard compact discs. MP3, WMA and WAV recordings can be played from CD-R or CD-RW discs. The front AUX input is intended for an analogue portable source.
Can a separate amplifier be connected?
Yes. The RCA line output is used for this connection.
How should I begin adjusting the sound?
First, leave the 5-band graphic equaliser in its neutral position. Then balance the levels of the different sources. Adjust the filters only after choosing the purpose of the RCA output.
Will the vehicle’s steering-wheel buttons work?
The unit has a dedicated steering-wheel remote-control input. The actual connection method depends on the vehicle’s control system and its connectors.
Is this model intended for a home stereo or cinema system?
No. It is a 1-DIN car audio head unit. Its installation format, control inputs and detachable panel are designed for an in-car system.
Is this model suitable for a system that needs rear-channel and subwoofer RCA outputs at the same time?
No. The model has only one RCA line output, which can be assigned either to the rear channel or to a subwoofer. A system requiring both simultaneously would therefore need a different solution.
What is included?
The package contains the in-car CD receiver and a protective case for the detachable front panel. The case is intended for storing and carrying the panel after it has been removed.
