The technology inside

The challenge was to fit an immense amount of technology into a space-limited one-DIN unit housing. By extensively employing the latest advances in integrated circuit technologies, ECLIPSE was able to achieve an impressive engineering feat of fitting all the technology in. ECLIPSE is the only mobile electronics manufacturer to offer so much in a single, compact enclosure.
Space-saving circuit construction techniques
AVN8826 circuit board construction utilises advanced modules comprised of DAC, memory and flash memory integrated circuits that make it possible to downsize the circuit boards, which in turn help achieve the ultra space-efficient oneDIN unit configuration of the AVN8826.

20GB 1.8 HDD

Using this instead of a 2.5 HDD helped maintain the compact, ultra-efficient design, taking up 30% less valuable real estate.

Ultima Engine

MS Duo Slot

Detachable Front Panel

Sub display
7 (175mm) wide TFT display

Proximity layout

Important circuit components such as the DAC and MOSFET devices are closely positioned next to the output terminals for the most effective signal transmission and to cancel any potential noise pickup. This adds up to delivering better audio performance.
Design accents Chrome and silver style highlights
The stylish silver strip accents the pushbuttons on the side while the control knob and other buttons are finished in chrome for an elegant touch of contrast with the black matte finish of the unit.
Understated black matte finish
Adding to the AVN8826's stylistic appeal is the black matte finish that complements car interiors and adds a sophisticated, appealing finish.

Audio Features

The new CD Receiver line delivers outstanding audio performance across the board for each model.

Circle Surround II

Circle Surround II adds three important functions that will significantly increase in-car music listening enjoyment. Circle Surround will upmix any audio program material such as CDs, MP3s, WMA files and FM/MW/LW broadcasts for surround sound with just four speakers. Focus works to raise the apparent soundfield so that sound is perceived as coming from the front, and at ear level, instead of from the sides and lower as many speakers are positioned in cars. TruBass makes use of psychoacoustic principles and human hearing characteristics so that extended low frequencies are perceived, even from small speakers.
Focus Generates virtual speakers that create a front-firing, higherpositioned soundfield.
Circle Surround Multichannel surround sound is generated from any audio source.
TruBass Generates a virtual subwoofer for satisfying low frequency reinforcement.

Audio customise

The CD8445E offers the most comprehensive customisation functions for a user to optimise an audio system for the specific car it is installed in. In addition, customisation can be performed in two modes: Professional Mode and Easy Mode. Professional Mode offers a degree of user customisation that would normally require test equipment and qualified personnel to perform, while Easy Mode intelligently groups related parameters to simplify adjustment.

Pro Mode on

For optimising a 3-way multi speaker system that comprises 6 independent speakers.
Time Alignment creates better imaging and a more natural system sound by making sure the sounds from all the speakers arrive at the listener's ears simultaneously. The delay time and level parameters for each speaker can be easily set individually for the most accurate results.

It is a system that pinpoints a current position making use precisely of radio waves transmitted to earth from 3 or 4 GPS satellites. GPS data can sometimes be unavailable due to circumstances such as: Interrupted GPS satellite radio waves because of geographical interference factors such as buildings, tunnels, elevated roads and similar conditions. Unsatisfactory reception due to objects being on or in the near vicinity of the GPS antenna. Interrupted transmission service may sometimes result from periodic maintenance or upgrades being performed by the US-based GPS tracking control system. Transmission can be interrupted or degraded when a digital cellular operating on a 1.5GHz frequency rate is being used in the vicinity of the GPS-enabled unit. AVN-specific Do not follow a navigation route if it could place you in an illegal, unsafe, or dangerous situation. Navigation controls cannot be operated in a moving vehicle. Do not watch moving images on a product display while driving as doing so may lead to an accident resulting in serious injury or death.
