アクティブディスプレイ CDサウンドステーション: Panasonic called this one an Active Display CD Sound Station, and the display really is the point. Eight bands of spectrum analyser run across a multi-colour screen, and the fascia itself is finished in translucent metallic paint so the deck reads as one thing in daylight and something else entirely after dark. Panasonic's own feature list puts it plainly: the panel changes face between day and night, and it glows under a black light. Underneath the theatre it is a straightforward single-DIN CD receiver, 40W x 4 with a 16W x 4 rated figure, FM/AM on the Japanese band, bass and treble with balance and fader, and a rear AUX lead Panasonic supplied for taking TV audio, which is just as happy carrying a phone or a Bluetooth module. No MD, no MP3, no cassette. One disc, one tuner, and a light show. At 1.5 kg it is the lightest deck in the drop.
