Features
Full Digital CD Receiver
The CQ-C9800U/CQ-C9700U uses Radio DSP
for digital conversion and processing of FM/AM
signals, and a digital amp to provide amplifi cation
of the digital data. With this technology, Panasonic
achieves full digital processing of radio and CD
signals from input to speaker output. This means
faithful reproduction of the original sound.
Radio DSP
By digitally converting and processing FM/AM
broadcast signals, this greatly reduces adjacent
interference and multipath distortion.
A radio’s IF fi lter has the job of preventing
neighboring broadcast frequencies from interfering
with reception of your desired station. Panasonic’s
Radio DSP uses an advanced algorithm to perform
this task digital control. It maintains the optimum
balance between noise suppression and sound
quality by automatically adjusting the IF fi lter
bandwidth in response to the changing interference
characteristics as you drive.

Fully Motorized Front Panel
A touch is all it takes to slide the front panel down
for access to the disc slot. A three-stage tilt function
permits viewing angle to be adjusted to 15, 25 or
35 degrees for optimum display visibility.
Customizable Graphics
You can customize the background (graphic
pattern/still image), opening, and ending screens
using your own images stored on CD-R/RW. At last,
you can create an original display that’s all yours

This unit uses a special fi lter to accentuate the
feeling of ambiance.
This fi lter serves to bring out the feeling of
ambiance embedded in the music and reproduce an
expressive sound quality without compromising the
sound in the midrange. Further, by setting the bass
and treble, the bass and treble can be accentuated
so you can create the kind and quality of sound that
you really like.
Position setting
You can adjust the timing at which the sound from
the speakers reaches you at the position where you
are sitting in the car so that you can reproduce the
sound fi eld which is tailored to this position.
