Play music your way and with your devices by installing a car digital media receiver. Also known as mech-less car stereos, these cutting-edge head units have no CD drive or other mechanical playback. (And don’t even ask us about cassette tapes.) Instead, they rely on storage media, satellite radio, wireless connectivity and other methods to access audio for playback.
If you’ve left CDs behind, get a single DIN vehicle media receiver that has done the same. OnlineCarStereo.com has you covered with digital in-dash receivers from top brands to play your favorite songs, podcasts, talk shows or sports broadcasts. Enjoy universal access to any kind of music in the world without the clutter, hassle and expense of CDs, jewel cases and other stuff.
The digital media car stereos you see here all have a single DIN design. You may want a single DIN digital media receiver if dashboard space is limited and you’re not interested in watching videos. They’re also a good choice for vehicles that have separate in-ceiling or headrest monitors and just need a source unit to power them. Bring your vehicle entertainment into the modern age with a mech-less digital stereo receiver from OnlineCarStereo.com. We ship free in the U.S.
Our single DIN radio products will open a vast world of music to you and your riders. We carry a large inventory of single DIN digital car stereos that make it easy to link up your devices or subscription services. Nearly all these dashboard stereo receivers allow users to sync their smartphones using auxiliary USB ports, Apple CarPlay or Android Auto. Instantly play any songs and radio apps or get GPS navigation through your booming car speakers. Others have popular built-in services such as SiriusXM satellite radio, HD Radio™, Pandora and Spotify. Just sign in with your account — you don’t even need a phone.
Bluetooth digital receivers open new wireless possibilities to sync phones, tablets, iPods and other compatible devices. Some receivers have connections for SD cards and USB media drives. With a touchscreen video digital receiver, it’s easy to navigate menus or pull up a movie for passengers. (And yes, there are touchscreen receivers in a single DIN design.) You could always get a digital stereo with AM/FM radio if you want to go new and old-school.
Some receivers include remotes, built-in microphones, light-up control buttons and other features to make life easier on the road. The search options on the left help you pick out a receiver that does what you want it to. If you’re not ready to completely sever the cord with old-fashioned physical media, check out our single-DIN CD player products. They give you all the freedom of the streaming wireless world but will play your favorite old CDs, too.

This specifies a type of DIN standard which measures the size of an in-dash receiver. Single DIN receivers are 2 inches high by 7 inches wide. DIN stands for “Deutsches Institut für Normung,” which translates to “German Institute for Standardization”.
Digital media receivers are vehicle entertainment units that provide a user interface to play content in a vehicle. They only play digital music formats (no CDs or DVDs), and they also do not have a video display. (Receivers with video displays are called “multimedia receivers”.)
As the name implies, double DIN receivers are twice the size of a single DIN. A double DIN receiver is 4” x 7”.
This depends on the vehicle dashboard. Some accept universal digital media receivers while others have very specific requirements. Use our digital media Vehicle Fit Guide or call our experts for assistance.
Again, it depends — this time on the desired specs. A double DIN receiver will be larger and have more features, such as touchscreen controls and GPS navigation. With these extras, however, comes a higher price tag. Consider what features you want before making a decision.
