Detachable Faceplate
The CZ209 features a detachable faceplate with white 8-character display. Blue key illumination makes control in the dark a snap.

CDs and More
Play back your favorite CDs and CD-R/RWs, or burn your MP3/WMA files to a data CD and enjoy hours of music, complete with ID3-TAG display for displaying track info like artist or song names. You can also play the files back from an inserted USB thumb drive.

Direct iPod control
The USB input on the rear of the CX609 lets you connect your iPod directly without an expensive adapter. Just use your stock iPod cable, and you'll enjoy your favorite iPod tunes, along with complete control and battery charging of your iPod. The unit also supports title display for the tracks playing on your iPod.

Front Panel Auxiliary Input
Connect MP3 players or other external audio devices in a snap with the 3.5mm front auxiliary input.

Easily Expand
The CZ209 gives you a 50W x 4 built-in amplifier to begin with, along with two RCA preamp outputs to grow your system.

It's also ready for Clarion's BLT370 Bluetooth interface or OEM steering wheel remote.

Magna Bass EX
This circuit boosts bass at an ultra-low frequency of About 50Hz, creating a rich, deep, defined bass rather than the muddy, booming bass of a standard loudness control. What's more, boost levels are dependent on the system volume, resulting in balanced system response and dynamic bass reproduction.

Front Panel Auxiliary Input
Connect MP3 players or other external audio devices in a snap with the 3.5mm front auxiliary input.

Remote Control Included
Control the action with the included wireless remote.
