Audio Section
MOSFET Amplifier: The Dual XDMA5280 is equipped with a
MOSFET amplifier. Compared to conventional power supplies, the MOSFET
amplification circuit is smaller and more efficient, and it delivers increased
power with less distortion and absolutely zero on/off switching noise. More
power means louder and cleaner music at higher volumes because you're not
pushing the limits of the amplification circuit.
CEA2006 Compliant: The power specifications for the XDMA5280
are compliant with the CEA2006 Mobile Amplifier Power Testing and Measurement
standards from the Consumer Electronics Association (CEA). These standards were
developed as a way to equitably compare power specs from model to model and
between manufacturers. The power output specs for the XDMA5280 are as follows:
- CEA2006 Specs: 18 watts RMS x 4 channels (at 4 ohms,
20Hz-20kHz, 1% THD-N)
- Maximum Power Output: 60 watts x 4 channels (240 watts
total)
Preset EQ Curves: The Dual CD Receiver features the following preset
EQ curves (Flat, Pop, Jazz, Classic, Beat, Rock, & User) to customize your music
listening.
Bass &Treble: The Bass & Treble can be independently adjusted
from -6 to +6. Bass & Treble settings are retained for each mode individually.
Any adjustments to the Bass or Treble settings automatically cancel the current EQ curve.
2V/2Ch Preamp Outputs: The Dual XDMA5280 features a pair of
2-volt preamp outputs to connect an external amplifier.
Programmable Turn-On Volume: You can program the unit to turn on
at a specific volume (1-46).
Source Volume Level: The Source Volume Level control allows a gain
adjustment for each audio source (AM, FM, CD, Aux, USB & iPod). You can set the
source volume level for each mode, depending on the relative volume of each
audio source.
Key Beep: When this function is enabled, every button press
will output a beep tone.
Radio Functions
AM/FM Tuner: The Dual XDMA5280 features a built-in AM/FM
tuner with manual, seek, & preset tuning.
Preset Tuning: The built-in AM/FM tuner allows you to store
up to 18 FM station presets and 12 AM station presets. You can tune your presets
manually or have the head unit do it automatically.
Local: The Local function allows only strong radio stations
to be received, blocking stations with weaker signals.
European Tuning: You can switch the tuner between USA or
European tuning.
Display Features
Detachable Face: The Dual CD Receiver features a detachable
faceplate to deter theft (no face case is supplied). The head unit includes a face-fixing screw if you prefer that the unit's faceplate
always stays attached.

sold separately) can be purchased for this unit.
10-Character LCD: The XDMA5280 features a 10 character LCD
with white text & black background for easy viewing during the day or nighttime.
Display Settings: The head unit offers the following display
settings.
- Scrolling: You can change the scrolling style used for
displayed information on the LCD screen. Choose from Off (no scrolling),
Once (scrolls once), 15 Secs (scrolls once per 15 seconds), and On
(constantly scrolls).
- Display Dimmer: The head unit's display features three
illumination dimmer settings (High/Medium/Low).
12/24 Hour Clock: The unit's built-in clock will display
12-hour AM/PM time in USA frequency spacing mode. In European frequency spacing
mode, the clock will display 24-hour time.
Note: The clock can be set to stay on even when the head
unit is turned off.
Power-On Message: This feature allows a "Good
Morning/Afternoon/Evening" text message to be shown on the unit's LCD screen
when it is powered on.
Demo Mode: You can enable or disable the unit's
demonstration mode.
Remote Control
Wireless Remote Control: The XDMA5280 comes supplied with an
9-button IR remote control which provides wireless control over the Dual
CD Receiver.
