CD player, MD player, AM/FM tuner, 4ch amplifier, and DSP in a 2DIN size. The MD part of all models supports MDLP, and the group function can also be used. In addition, since ATRAC decoding is performed at 24 bits, it is said that "even the subtle nuances closer to the original sound are reproduced".

The CD section supports playback of CD-R/RW and MP3 files, and supports display of ID3 tags.

The CQ-VX4200D is a high-end model equipped with an amplifier with a maximum output of 45W x 4ch. The display panel is equipped with a "2-layer FL display" that provides a sense of depth and displays in three dimensions.

The DSP section can select 7 modes: "live house", "concert hall", "jazz club", "stadium", "disco", "vocal", and "cinema". You can also use the "Super Dynamic Bass Boost (SDBB)" that allows you to enjoy deep bass without a subwoofer, and the "Super Bass Control Subwoofer (SBC/SW)" that uses the rear speakers as a subwoofer. .
