About the Blaupunkt San Francisco 310

USB and SD card slots

Blaupunkt designed the San Francisco 310 CD receiver to serve the music lover.  You'll find a USB port and an SD™ card slot for plugging in storage devices, and the USB input serves double duty as an input for your iPod® or iPhone® — just plug in and take control of your playlists from the receiver's controls. If you're addicted to satellite radio, you can plug your SiriusXM portable into the front-panel auxiliary input.

Sound controls and system expansion

The San Francisco includes a built-in amp with plenty of power, and you can tweak the sound with a 3-band parametric equalizer that lets you select specific frequencies to boost or cut. You'll appreciate the two sets of preamp outputs if you plan to connect external amps or a powered sub.

Note: We made a special purchase on this Blaupunkt receiver, and it's a great deal. Keep in mind that you'll have to activate the AM tuner and reset the FM tuner for American stations — the process is explained in the manual. Also, this receiver does not come with a warranty, but it is covered by our 60-day satisfaction guarantee.
