Commentary
A magazine-style CD player capable of playing six games in a row.
It is possible to play continuously just by putting 6 CDs in the performance magazine and playing it.
Also, you can play up to 32 songs from 6 CDs.
The D/A converter is equipped with a 4-times oversampling digital filter to obtain low-distortion audio characteristics with little phase deviation up to high frequencies.
It is also equipped with a twin-linear envelope D/A converter system to reduce the distortion factor by adjusting the error generated at the MSB switching section to an appropriate value.
It employs an Accu-Focus system that reduces pit signal reading errors, a honeycomb chassis that reduces vibration from outside, and a large insulator.
It is equipped with a time fade edit function. If you specify the desired time with the 10 key, it will fade out automatically at that time and enter a pause state.
All 6 discs can be played at random.
It has a direct programming function that allows you to program while listening to music.
Equipped with a pause program function, it is also possible to temporarily stop in front of a specified song during program performance.
Equipped with digital level control that allows volume adjustment by remote control at hand.
You can share carrozzeria car audio and magazine.
Equipped with a power on start function that enables timer start.
