Performance, style, and flexibility — Dual's XD7600 delivers it all, and at a price that's hard to resist. Not only does this CD receiver come primed to anchor your mobile audio system with a strong built-in amp (22 watts RMS x 4), it includes a handy jack for connecting a portable music player. Just connect the iplug to the XD7600's auxiliary RCA input jacks, mount it in a convenient spot (under the dash, in the glove compartment, in the center console — wherever you like to keep your player) and go! No more dangling wires to get in the way of your clean installation.

And talk about good looking. The sleek, flip-down faceplate motors into position at the touch of a button. You also get a cool, blue backlight that will really light up your nights, with a negative display to ensure that everything is easy to read, day or night. If security is a concern, detach the face when you leave the car for extra peace of mind. The oversized rotary encoder knob makes system adjustments a snap, and a remote control is provided for back seat song surfers.

Five selectable EQ curves allow for on-the-fly sound adjustments, while the 2-band equalizer lets you customize the highs and lows to suit your music and your taste. Source Audio Memory can save different bass/treble settings for the AM/FM tuner and CD functions. You can even connect an external amp or powered subwoofer to the set of preamp outputs to build a thumpin' system.
