Panasonic CQ-RX100U


$150.00 Released May, 2008

Product Shot 1 The Pros:CD player works reliably with all discs, no skipping. Easy to use, no real learning curve involved. Makes the most of OEM speakers, very strong and clear audio output.

The Cons:Display can seem a little too bright at night, gets distracting. A bit boring looking, greys and light blues aren't very impressive. Only 1 set of preamps, limits expansion with after-market amps.

The Panasonic CQ-RX100U is an in-dash receiver that supports MP3, WMA, and CD-R/RW playback.  The receiver features a bright white-on-black LED display with a dimmer and detachable faceplate for security.

  It has a 3-band equalizer with six preset sound curves and a built-in MOSFET amplifier that provides a total of 72 watts of RMS power handling.  The CQ-RX100U includes an AM/FM Alphatuner V with 18 FM and 6 AM presets and can display 1 line of CD text.  It also has an AUX input on the front panel allowing the user to play audio directly from their MP3 player.  The receiver comes with a wireless remote control and a 1 year limited warranty.  The CQ-RX100U is a step down from Panasonic's CQ-RX200U since it lacks the expansion module compatibility and CD changer control that comes with the CQ-RX200U.
