Ideal for a variety of installations, the CD-400U delivers the latest wireless and solid state technology content playback by offering CD, Bluetooth wireless, SD, USB, and AM/FM tuner capability for fast and easy playback of professional quality audio. Recording from the CD or AM/FM source to SD or USB media is possible.

Music Playback from CDs, USB Memory Devices and SD Cards

The CD-400U supports a wide range of media including audio CDs, data CDs, USB memory devices and SD and SDHC cards, supporting WAV, MP3, AAC and WMA formats. The CD-400U is ideal for contractors where playback of a wide range of media and files is required.

Playback modes (continuous playback, single playback and random playback) can also be combined with repeat playback function settings (on/off) to suit a wide range of situations.

Check out this in-depth video for a technical overview on the features and use of this powerful source device.

Music playback from CDs, USB memory devices and SD cards
Wireless streaming from Bluetooth® devices

Wireless Streaming from Bluetooth® Devices

Your digital music library can be played back from Bluetooth® devices such as smartphones, tablets and portable music players. Once the device is paired with the CD-400U, a wireless connection can be made quickly by simply pressing the pairing button. This enables easy playback of audio files without fussing with cables or file formats.

* The CD-400U can be now individually identified via Bluetooth as "CD-400U-xxxx" (xxxx being the unit's individual number). This applies to units which serial number starts with 206 and upwards only. The serial number can be checked on the unit's rear panel.

A Built-In AM/FM Tuner

The CD-400U accommodates an AM/FM tuner with 20FM + 20AM presets. An independent tuner output connector is equipped on the back, enabling simultaneous playback with other media on the unit.

Remote Control via an RS-232C and an Ethernet on Option Card

As a standard feature, the CD-400U equips an RS-232C connector, allowing the unit to work with various remote control commands required by contractors. An optional Ethernet card – enabling the same serial control – is scheduled to release in future.

FAQs

When the CD-400U is paired with a Bluetooth device such as a smartphone, it can now be identified by the unit's serial number*¹.
This makes it possible to identify which device is connected to which unit in locations where multiple CD-400Us are used.

The unit whose serial number has the first three digits after 206 will appear on the Bluetooth device as “CD400U----”. The “----” is a four-digit number that differs for each unit.
This allows each individual CD-400U unit to be identified.

The name of the CD-400U can also be changed using the iOS/iPadOS/Android device functionality*². However, this name is only valid on the iOS/iPadOS /Android device that made the change. Please note that the name displayed on other Bluetooth devices will not be changed.

*1 Please check the rear panel of the device for the serial number.
*2 Please refer to the operating instructions of each device for the renaming function.
