I bought this unit for $130 last Jan. 2007 and I'm still using it. I've had no problems with it whatsoever.
The faceplate looks really elegant and gives the impression that its expensive. This combined with the nice blue backlight makes it, for me, one of the best looking in-dash players out there. At night this backlight and the graphical animated display makes this player the main attraction of your car - the outside of two circular knobs one each side plus a curving line connecting the two knobs are highlighted which looks really cool. The motorized faceplate is also a nice addition.

Now for functionality. I have not had any jumps when playing a CD of MP3s even when I don't see road bumps and potholes which gives me and the car quite a rattle. The display shows the album, artist name, and the title of the MP3 currently playing. This player is also iPod ready for all you iPod enthusiasts(although after reading the instructions,i forgot how that worked). I for one use a Creative Zen.. The wallpaper display can also be replaced by your own choice of pictures by using a cd (I haven't tried that out yet).


I just wish it had a menu wherein I could see a list of all the folders and use the remote to go through those folders and choose a song. Also, it would have been better for the Aux-in to be in front of the player instead of the back so people could easily plug in their devices. Well, its not such a bother anyway with the onset of the FM transmitter devices that you connect to your mp3 players.

This player is without question worth your money. I compared this player to the more popular Pioneer head units my friends have and this Panasonic has more features and better looking and, more importantly, cheaper.
I couldn't be happier with the purchase I've made.

This is a great cd/mp3/WMA player. Great Sound, the WOW option is incredible!!!!

Very nice display, and the blue backlight is very nice.

My only con is the player doesn't have an usb slot.

I really enjoy this product. Very well made and display is very clear. Easy to use and great value for the money. The thing I like the most is the sound quality. It is just great ! The WOW option to enhance the sound is very good and the subwoofer control as well. The only thing I miss is an USB entry in the front panel, but for the rest it is perfect.

easy to use, good display. was what i was looking for, good for the money.

The CQ-C7303U is the best cd player if you want one in you car. The best part is the customizable 3D graphics and the fact it works with iPod. Overall the best i have ever owned.
