Panasonic CQ-DP171U
Overview
Our take on the Panasonic CQ-DP171U
Panasonic makes it easy for you internet music fans out there — the CQ-DP171U plays the MP3 files that you've recorded on CD-Rs and CD-RWs. Since you can record up to ten hours of your favorite files on a single disc, it's like having a CD changer in your dash.
A powerful built-in amp (23 watts RMS/45 peak x 4) reproduces your tunes with authority, and a set of preamp outputs simplifies adding an outboard amp and subwoofer for even more low-end punch. For greater flexibility, the CQ-DP171U will control a Panasonic CD changer — add one to your receiver order, and save $$ with Crutchfield's package discount. A wireless remote control is included.

MP3 Playback: This unit will play MP3 files that have been recorded on CD-ROM, CD-R and CD-RW discs using any of the following formats: ISO 9660 Level 1, ISO 9660 Level 2, Joliet, Romeo, and Apple Extension to ISO 9660. The files can be recorded with fixed bit rate or variable bit rate compression. The CQ-DP171U is compatible with bit rates from 16kbps to 256kbps.

- Folder Skip (forward and backward)
- File Skip (forward and backward)
- Audible File Search (forward/reverse)
- Direct Folder Selection: using the supplied remote control, you can directly access folders

Multi-Stage Noise Shaping: This technology helps prevent zero-cross distortion and non-linear distortion. It requantizes the CD data, "shaping" it to move digital noise out of the audible range. Pulse width modulation (PWM) then reconstructs the analog waveform with true precision.
Anti-Shock Floating Mechanism: To help assure high signal reading accuracy, the optical deck of this unit is mounted on the chassis via three silicone/rubber dampers, creating a floating suspension. Panasonic uses a side-mounting system to resist horizontal as well as vertical vibrations.
1-Bit 4-DAC System: This unit uses four 1-bit digital-to-analog converters.
Alphatuner V: The 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 Track Selection: Using the supplied remote control, you can directly access tracks.
Anti-Volume Blast Circuit: When the power is switched off and on again, the volume slowly rises to the previous level. The anti-volume blast circuit will not work when the volume level is set lower than position 20 on the display.
Functions:
- Disc Selection (forward/reverse)
- Track Selection (forward/reverse)
- Audible Track Search (forward/reverse)
- Direct Disc Selection: using the supplied remote control, you can directly access discs
- Track Random Play: allows you to play the tracks on all the loaded discs in random order
- Disc Random Play: allows you to play the tracks on the selected disc in random order
- Track Scan Play: plays the first 10 seconds of each track on the selected disc
- Disc Scan Play: plays the first 10 seconds of the first track on each disc in the changer

When used in combination with the Number/# button, the numeric buttons allow you to directly access tracks, folders, and discs. In CD mode, the 4/RAND button cycles through the random play modes, the 5/SCAN button cycles through the scan play modes, and the 6/REP button cycles through the repeat play modes. The 7/<< and 9/>> buttons are used for station tuning and track selection
- Band/Set/Pause: in tuner mode, this button allows you to select the band. In CD mode, this button allows you to pause CD playback.
- Display: allows you to cycle through the display settings
Dimensions: L=3.403", W=1.597", D=0.262"
Display Illumination/Clock Display: When the clock has been given display priority, pressing and holding the Source button turns off audio output, but the clock display and face/button illumination remain on; when the unit is not turned off completely, the clock display and face/button illumination are "keyed". When the clock has not been given display priority, pressing and holding the Source button turns the unit off completely. When the unit has been turned completely off, you can turn on the clock display and face/button illumination by pressing the CLOCK/DISP button.
