Our Product Research Team
At Crutchfield, you'll get detailed, accurate information that's hard to find elsewhere.
That's because we have our own in-house Product Research team — they open the box,
verify contents, check the owner's manual, and record dimensions, features and specs.
We stay on top of new products and technologies to help people make informed choices.
Features
Display/Button
Illumination: All display indicators and
readouts are displayed with light green illumination. The buttons are backlit
with light green illumination.
Bass, Treble
and BTB: This
model allows you to adjust the bass +/-12dB at 100Hz and the treble +/-12dB at
10kHz. In addition to standard treble and bass settings, this model also has 5
stored BTB (Bass Treble Boost) settings: Dynamic, Power, Max, Custom and Flat.
Custom is an adjusted BTB setting that you create. When Flat is selected, no
supplement or correction is made to the sound.
Selectable
Loudness: You can select a Low or High
level of loudness compensation. The Low setting provides a 7dB gain at 100Hz and
4dB gain at 10kHz. The High setting provides a 10dB gain at 100Hz and 6.5dB gain
at 10kHz.
Source
Level Adjustment (SLA): This function
prevents radical leaps in volume when switching between sources. To use this
function, you compare the volume level of the sources (AM, Tape/CD changer) to
the FM level, then you adjust the source level to match that heard when
listening to FM. Since the reference level is based on the FM volume, SLA is not
possible on FM.
Tuner:
This unit is equipped with Pioneer's Supertuner, which provides outstanding AM
and FM performance.
Best Stations
Memory: BSM
lets you automatically store the strongest 6 stations for AM and each of the
three FM bands. The stations are stored under preset buttons 1-6.
Radio
Intercept: The last station tuned in will
play while the tape deck is in fast forward or rewind mode. This feature may be
turned on or off.
Cassette Insert Auto Turn-On:
When the unit is off and receiving power on both power leads, inserting a tape
will automatically turn the unit on and begin playback.
Changer Controls:
In addition to basic disc navigation features,
this unit has the following changer controls: pause, direct disc access, disc
intro scan, track intro scan, track repeat, disc repeat, all disc repeat, disc
random, and all disc random.
