Swiss audio SCD2000: a good feature set and MP3 playability highlight this head unit

摘要

Swiss Audio may be the new kid on the block compared to some of the mainstays of the car audio world but it is made up of well-seasoned folks that know how to maximize the cost/performance ratio from many years' experience. The new SCD2000 CD/MP3 player is a sample of this synthesis. The silver faceplate is motorized for access to the CD slot, and detachable for theft-prevention. A section that looks like brushed aluminum surrounds the display area, which has a contrast adjustment with 10 levels to maximize visibility at your viewing angle. The display has a pair of VU meters at the bottom, topped by a set of 12 dot-matrix characters. The buttons and the rotary encoder (for level settings) all have backlighting that can be set for red or green to match your dash illumination.
