About the Panasonic CQ-C1300U
In addition to your newest CDs, Panasonic's CQ-C1300U CD receiver also plays your MP3 and WMA files. Use the full-function remote to jump directly to any track or folder on your disc. Enrich your music and your daily drive with four channels of strong MOSFET50 power (25 watts RMS per channel).
CD changer controls give you the option of adding a Panasonic CD changer for easy access to your favorite discs. You also get two sets of preamp outputs for expanding your audio system to include external amplifiers. The SQ (Sound Quality) sound control feature gives you four preset tone curves for adjusting the music.
The crisp, blue and white display keeps you informed without a lot of distraction. Seek tuning lets the sensitive Alphatuner V find your favorite radio stations quickly, and plenty of station presets give you more than enough room for station storage.

MP3/WMA Playback: The Panasonic CQ-C1300 can play MP3 and WMA files recorded on CD-ROM, CD-R, and CD-RW discs in ISO9660 Level 1/Level 2, Apple Extension to ISO9660, Joliet, and Romeo formats. Each disc should have a maximum of 8 trees, 255 folders, and 999 files. Each folder can have a maximum of 255 files.
Sound Quality (SQ): In addition to the bass and treble adjustments (+/- 12dB @ 100 Hz/10kHz), the unit's Sound Quality function allows you to apply various sound adjustments at the touch of a button in accordance with your musical tastes. There are three SQ settings plus "flat":
- Rock: speedy and heavy sound; exaggerates bass and treble
- Pop: wide-ranged and deep sound; slightly emphasizes bass and treble
- Vocal: clear sound; emphasizes middle tone and slightly emphasizes treble
- Flat: flat frequency response; no emphasis applied
Alphatuner V: The CQ-C1300U's Alphatuner V tuner is designed to help suppress multi-path distortion and reduce the problem of radio signal reflections in metropolitan areas. It also features increased sensitivity for weak signal areas.
Direct Memory: One favorite radio station can be stored in Direct Memory and recalled at any time (even with the power off) with the push of the D-M button. In addition, you can store up to 18 FM and 6 AM stations in preset memory.
Remote Control: The CQ-C1300U is equipped with a wireless remote control (YEFX9992663). In addition to normal disc/tuner/audio controls, some functions are available exclusively by remote control only. Using the numeric keypad, you can directly select CD tracks (in player only), CD changer discs, MP3 files and MP3 folders. The dimensions of the remote are: W=1.583", H=0.268", L=3.412".
CD Changer Compatibility: The CQ-C1300U can control compatible 6-disc and 8-disc Panasonic CD Changers including CX-DP880, CX-DP88, CX-DP801, CX-DP610, CX-DP601, and CX-DP600.
Clock/Illumination Displays: Pressing and holding the Source button turns the unit off completely. After the unit has been turned off, you can use the DISP (display) button to switch the clock display and face/button illumination on and off. If you leave the clock display and face/button illumination on, they are "keyed". If you turn the clock display and face/button illumination off, they only turn on when the unit is turned on ("unit on" operation).
