Quoting [with annotations]:

	Pioneer Electronics has announced the company's first CD player
	for use in cars.  The CDX-1 is slated for release in January 85,
	making it one of the first autosound CD players manufactured in 
	this country [you read that right -jm].  Despite the sophistication
	of the CD and laser technology, the CDX-1 is compatable with
	virtually any existing car stereo that used a standard built-in
	amplifier or RCA-type pre-outs if a separate adapter is used.
	The biggest hurdles facing manufacturers of car CD players
	are size, vibration and heat. ... separating the CDX-1 system
	into 2 distinct [as opposed to indistinct? -jm] modules -
	an operating module, and a hideaway processing module.  The
	operating module ... fist into most standard-sized car-stereo
	dashboard cavaties.  The processing module ... fits in a remote
	location, such as under a seat.  An anti-vibration eliminates
	[read "minimizes" -jm] tracking error, and a doorless, dustproof
	[nothing is dustproof -jm] disk insertion slot protects the
	disk from scratches, stains and cigarette smoke.  The unit also
	includes a temperature-controlled automatic shutoff [as opposed to
	a temperature-controlled manual shutoff -jm].

	For price info, contact Bob Thomas and Assoc. 835 Hopkins Way,
	Redondo Beach CA 90277.

No Endorsement is Intended.  I don't even own a car expensive enough for
one of these babies.  I don't even own one for my house.

Yours for Cost Effective Audio Enjoyment,
