Alpine MDA-W700J. Seems to be a color variant of the MDA-W700JB. Should share the new CD pickup and MD mechanism with the MDA-W779JB.

MD/CD player with:

  • MD/CD kanji title display
  • T-DHE (Theatre Sound DHE)
  • DSP
  • 7 Band EQ (…63Hz/160Hz/400Hz/1kHz/2.5kHz/6.3kHz/16kHz（each± 10dB）)
  • Equipped with “Glide Wing”, an advanced and smart display action
  • DHE (Digital Harmonics Enhancer) - uses a unique digital technology to revive the harmonics (overtones) that are lost when recording onto an MD, realizing music playback that is closer to the original sound

Technical Specs:

  • MD S/N: 105dB. Dynamic Range: 90dB.
  • CD S/N: 105dB. Dynamic Range: 93dB. Channel Separation: 86dB.
  • 44W × 4ch amplifier
