Features
Built-In FM Modulator: For increased installation flexibility, the compact changer has the FM modulator built-in.
Modulation Frequencies: The modulator has 12 FM modulation frequencies. You can select the following modulation frequencies from the wired remote/display unit: 87.9, 88.1, 88.3, 88.5, 88.7, 88.9, 89.1, 89.3, 89.5, 89.7, 89.9 or 90.1MHz.
Double-Floating Anti-Vibration System: This changer has a double-floating anti-vibration system for skip-resistant performance.
CD Text: When playing CD Text encoded CDs, the CD Text information will be shown in the wired remote display.
Disc Title Memory: This changer offers 100-disc title memory. You can give each disc a title up to 10 characters in length.
Instant Track Selection (ITS): This function lets you program and play the tracks you want. Using Automatic Disc Program Selection, you can program up to 100 discs. Up to 99 tracks can be programmed and played in any order for each disc. During ITS play, both disc and track number searches are performed only on programmed tracks.
Repeat Play: The changer can repeat the current track or the current disc. Under normal playing conditions, the changer will automatically repeat all discs in the magazine.
Random Play: The changer can play all tracks on the current disc in random order or all tracks on all discs in random order.
Mounting Angles: You can install this changer at any angle from 0 to 90 degrees. There are angle switching dials on both sides of the unit that must be set to agree with the mounting angle of the unit.
Source Level Adjustment: A source level adjuster allows you to match the CD output level with the FM level. You can select one of seven different levels. The adjustment must be made from the wired remote/display unit.
Pre-Emphasis Selector: A pre-emphasis selector allows you to increase the amount of treble using the wired remote/display unit or the wireless remote.
CD Compatibility: This unit will play prerecorded audio CDs, finalized CD-R discs and finalized CD-RW discs.
Compatibility with Pioneer Receivers: This changer can be connected to a Pioneer IP-Bus-compatible head unit with CD-changer controls via an optional cable (item #130CDE5773). This connection will bypass the built-in FM modulator and provide a direct audio connection to the head unit. It will also provide direct control of the changer from the head unit, no longer requiring the wired remote/display unit.

Super fantastic: The CD player in my old stereo died. Rather than replace the radio, I got the CD changer. Sound qualiy is great. Better even than the old CD player. Controls are easy to use, even while driving. Well worth the money.
