Two good reasons - sound quality and cool features. A new car stereo offers power that's superior to most factory radios, along with more sophisticated tone controls. And most car stereos offer built-in or optional features that add safety and fun to life in your car, including inputs for your iPod or MP3 player, Bluetooth connectivity for hands-free cell phone calls, satellite radio or HD Radio reception, and connections for building an audio system in your car.
The top-of-the-line ProAudio HX-D10 CD receiver was created to command a high-performance system. Clarion eliminated the internal amp and incorporated special audio capacitors to stabilize voltage so that this receiver sends an ultra-pure, high-definition signal to your external amplifiers. The result — killer performance!
The HX-D10 has a motorized, detachable aluminum faceplate, with a bright white dot matrix display, for high visibility day or night. The faceplate's rotary knob centralizes system adjustments in one convenient location. Two 24-bit D/A converters ensure superb CD playback, and the Magi-Tune+ tuner will impress you with its station-grabbing abilities.
Precise tone-shaping is a button-push away with the "Beat EQ" — an adjustable 3-band parametric equalizer. For the ultimate in signal purity, use the Tone Bypass feature to eliminate the tone controls from the circuitry — your amps receive a signal that resembles the source as closely as possible.
Controls for Clarion CeNet CD changers, DVD players, or outboard processors are built in. You also get an auxiliary input for plugging in a portable MP3 or MD player, or a satellite radio tuner. A wireless steering wheel remote control is included.
