Technology for your car

Sony introduces Giga Panel technology the generation in digital entertainment for your car. Using its 1GB of built-in flash memory, the MEX-1GP CD player stores hours and hours of your favorite music at your fingertips, displaying track name and other file information up on the faceplate. Best of all, you can transfer MP3, WMA, and ATRAC3plus files directly from your PC to the stereo using the removable faceplate. Just take the face inside, connect it to your PC using the included USB cable, and quickly transfer your files over to the MEX-1GP's internal memory as you would with an external disc drive. And don't worry if you already have a library of digital music on recordable discs this CD player can handle those, too. Once your tunes are loaded into the stereo, the built-in amplifier will make sure they sound their best, with plenty of power to drive the speakers in your car. Sony's EQ3 sound shaping offers seven preset tone curves and three tone controls for custom tuning, while the Dynamic Soundstage Organizer feature improves the dull sound of poorly-placed car speakers by lifting the soundstage up to ear level. Two sets of preamp outputs are on hand for all your external amps and subs. You can switch the rear ouputs to subwoofer mode and control the frequency and level of your bass system from the stereo. Use the Aux Lite input to connect a portable music player or other external source. You won't even need to buy an extra adapter, just plug directly into the stereo's RCA inputs. Controls for an optional Sony CD changer and satellite radio round out the entertainment offerings. The fold-down, detachable faceplate with its striking design and high-contrast LCD display will look great in your dash. Use the wireless remote to control the MEX-1GP shuffling and repeating tracks, albums, and personal playlists from anywhere in the car.
