Panasonic's CQ-C8305U CD receiver. At center stage, an eye-popping full-color animated display shows off preloaded images or offerings downloaded from Panasonic's website. You can also add your own digital images to the mix - all necessary software is included. But the show doesn't stop there - touch a button and watch as the display motors down to reveal the CD slot.
High Power Amp-Pump up the Power
Discover greater musical enjoyment with more powerful reproduction. This 4-channel MOS-FET built-in amp delivers 50W to each speaker for a 200W total output. Unlike bipolar transistors, MOS-FETs have low crossover distortion for excellent signal-to-noise ratio in the high range. The high efficiency also means low power consumption and low heat radiation.
Colorful Graphics Burst into Action
The 512-color OEL (Organic Electro Luminescence) display has 172 x 54 pixels for impressive clarity. OEL is a self-illuminating display technology that is easy to read, with a wide viewing angle and about five times the contrast of an LCD screen. Well suited to displaying motion-graphics, OEL has a rapid low-temperature response time for reduced ghosting and flicker compared to LCDs. There are three kinds of motion pattern presets and 10 still-pattern presets.
Customize the High Definition 3D Dot Matrix Display
Spice up your drive with Pansonic's CD receiver's high definition 3D action graphics that look especially cool on the illuminated blue display. There are three motion patterns, including the Panasonic F1 racecar and Snow Board, and 10 still images to choose from. You can also customize the background (motion/still image), opening, and ending screens using your own images stored on a CD-R/RW disc. There are a wide variety of these images available on Panasonic's special download website. All you have to do is download the images you like, burn them onto a CR-R/RW disc, and load the disc into the CD receiver. You'll be able to replace the pre-installed images with the new images on your disc. Using the customizing software, Image Studio, from Panasonic's special download website, you can edit and process your own digital images (video and stills) to use as 3D Dot matrix background screens.
Enjoy a New Generation of Radio - Satellite Radio
More and more people are discovering satellite radio, a "must have" item that opens up new worlds of listening pleasure. Panasonic car audio is compatible with XM and Sirius satellite radio receivers. Both offer plentiful categories and channels, and you can operate their convenient functions such as Category Lock and Direct Access by channel number from the head unit while viewing information such as artist name and track title on the display.
Ready for Your iPod
The Direct Cable for iPod (CA-DC300U, sold separately), is all you need to connect the head unit and your iPod player. The head unit will display iPod information, including artist name and album, and you can select iPod tracks and playlists directly from the head unit. Power is supplied to the iPod player from the connected head unit, so you can enjoy the vast amount of music on your iPod player while charging at the same time.
Play Many Popular Music Formats
This CD receiver not only plays CDs, but also CD-R/RW discs, including MP3 and WMA formats. If you've got WMA and MP3 music files recorded on the same CD-R/RW disc, no problem - the CQ-C8303U CD receiver can handle it. For your listening pleasure, the acclaimed Alphatuner V FM/AM tuner circuitry is built into this unit as well, and there are 18 FM and 6 AM presets.
