Car CD Player -- What To Look For
• Kenwood
• Pioneer
• Goodmans
• Sony
• Boss
Most decent CD players have a detachable faceplate. I will not recommend buying one that does not have this (They are usually the lowest models offered by any company). The last major item to consider is whether the unit will fit in your dash.
Look for a control layout that you are comfortable with. Generally a simple layout is better for finding buttons quickly. A crowded and busy display looks great in the showroom but can be confusing and dangerous when driving at highway speeds. Beyond these basics, you need only worry about which features you wish to have to in your cd player.
Since the head unit is the most noticeable part of your system, most CD player manufacturers have designed several ways for you to express yourself in the dash. Many receivers or players feature motorized and fully detachable drop-down front panels. They also come with wireless remote controls, front and rear RCA outputs and a dedicated sub woofer output as well.
Features that are usual in a CD player . . .
1. ISO DIN mounting.
2. Multicolor vacuum fluorescent display
3. Fully detachable front panel motorized, slide-down, for easy access.
4. PLL synthesized tuner
5. Station presets
6. Illuminated control buttons
7. Quartz digital clock for you
8. CD changer controls
9. CD Mute and track repeat
10. CD-R and CD-RW compatibility
11. Subwoofer output
12. Anti-skip mechanism
13. Balance and fader controls
14. Dual RCA outputs with loudness control
There are more. You can look around if you need other features. Car audio product manufacturers are going overboard these days. Who knows, you may even find one that allows you to read your emails.
