About the Sony CDX-GT100
Just because Sony built the CDX-GT100 CD player for great sound doesn't mean they let style fall by the wayside. In fact, the stereo's sleek, futuristic look and gun-metal gray finish offer the perfect complement to its high-powered internal amp all with a sub-$100 price tag. The detachable faceplate even features a blue LED display that's easy to see from just about any angle, day or night.
On the audio side, you get treble, bass, and midrange controls, along with seven preset tone curves for tweaking the sound. The preamp outputs can be switched to subwoofer mode, activating a low-pass filter and bass level control ideal for controlling a powered sub in your system. And you get a front panel input that's just waiting for your portable audio player.

Product Research
Drive S: The CDX-GT100 features the Drive S chassis platform. Drive S includes the CD mechanism, audio stages, 12 V power supply, and tuner section. The CD mechanism includes a suspension to resist shocks, a motor that draws less power, and a fast low-current pickup that improves durability and CD playback accuracy. The 52W x 4 S-MOSFET Power IC produces clearer, more accurate sound, less distortion, and a higher signal-to-noise ratio than previous designs.
EQ3: You may select one of the following EQ presets: Xplod, Vocal, Club, Jazz, New Age, Rock, or Custom. For each preset, you can adjust the following frequencies: 60 Hz (Low), 1 kHz (Mid), and 10 kHz (High). The level of each frequency can be adjusted from +10 dB to -10 dB in 1 dB increments.
Best Tuning Memory (BTM): This feature selects stations with the best signals within the selected band and stores them in order of their frequency.
Rear/Subwoofer Preamp Outputs: The CDX-GT100 has a set of preamp outputs that can be set for Rear or Subwoofer output. When Subwoofer is selected, the outputs have a selectable low-pass filter (78 Hz, 125 Hz, or Off) and the output level is user-adjustable.
Front Panel Auxiliary Input: A front panel stereo 3.5mm minijack is provided to allow the connection of a portable audio source. Just connect your portable cassette, MD or MP3 player to this unit, and you can listen to the audio from the portable player through the speakers in your mobile audio system.
45-Degree Installation: For flexibility of installation, this unit can be mounted between 0 (horizontal) and 45 degrees.
Display Illumination/Clock Display: Pressing the Off button once will turn off audio output, but the clock display and face/button illumination remain on. This makes the clock display and face/button illumination "Keyed" instead of "Unit On" only. To turn the unit off completely, you must press the Off button for two seconds.
Note: When installing in a vehicle without an accessory power wire at the radio location, you must turn the radio completely off (this defeats keyed operation), or you may wire the accessory power wire of this radio to an alternate source of accessory power to retain keyed clock and face/button illumination operation.
