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.
If you own a computer with a CD-R or CD-RW drive, you already have the technology to fit 200 or more of your downloaded MP3 files (almost ten hours of music) onto one disc. The CDC-MP3 CD receiver will play those MP3-encoded discs on the road, as well as all your favorite prerecorded CDs, audio CD-Rs (recordable CDs), and audio CD-RWs (rewritable CDs). To help you enjoy all that music, this receiver is equipped with H-Bass for more bottom end, and 22 watts RMS of 4-way high power. For maximum crankability, add external amps to the two sets of preamp outputs.
The detachable, fold-down face features a multicolor dot matrix display and the "Smart Jog" illuminated rotary control. Push one button, and Driver's Sound Stage Adjustment calibrates the fader and balance automatically, for improved stereo imaging in the driver's seat. Hook up your portable cassette, MiniDisc, or MP3 player with the convenient auxiliary input. A handy steering wheel remote is supplied.
