Full Digital CD Receiver

The CQ-C9800N/C9700N uses Radio DSP for digital

conversion and processing of FM/AM signals, and a digital

amp to provide amplification 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.

SQ (Sound Quality)

You have six preset modes (FLAT, POP, ROCK, VOCAL,

JAZZ, CLUB). You can customize your settings for these

(except FLAT) and save them for instant recall.

SQ9 (9-Band Sound Quality)

Center frequency and level are adjustable in each of nine

bands. This lets you fine tune sound quality for each genre

to suit car-interior acoustics and your personal preferences.

(a page 13)

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.

Radio DSP

By digitally converting and processing FM/AM broadcast

signals, this greatly reduces adjacent interference and

multipath distortion.

A radio's IF filter 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 with digital control.

It maintains the optimum balance between noise

suppression and sound quality by automatically adjusting

the IF filter bandwidth in response to the changing

interference characteristics as you drive.

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. (a page 34)
