Product Description
Panasonic's SLSW869V ShockWave CD player/radio has a rugged aluminum shell and a thin, compact, water-resistant design for outdoor use. It has a one-touch lock-and-release system that is designed to play even when things get rough on the trail. The most important feature in this model is the Anti-Shock Memory System 4.0. This feature reduces skips before they even get to the memory buffer. It has an improved set of error-correction chips offering +100 percent and -75 percent error correction. It uses a digital servo in conjunction with a lighter and faster spindle motor that offers fast retracking speed.For ultimate versatility, the SLSW869V has an AM/FM digitally synthesized tuner that ensures stations won't drift once they are set. You can also preset up to 30 stations, 20 FM and 10 AM, in memory. There are five preset buttons so you don't have to search for your favorite station every time.
A "hold" switch prevents you from unintentionally hitting "stop" while the CD is playing or accidentally changing the programming. In addition, you can save your batteries from drain with the power-saving auto power-off function. The batteries will last for up to 25 hours of playback. This model includes adjustable stereo headphones, an AC adapter, and a jogger grip. The Panasonic SLSW869V features 24-track random-access programming, repeat of one or all tracks, skip and search, and memory and recall keys, as well as resume play and random play.
Panasonic SLSW869V Shockwave Portable CD Player with Radio (Silver & Blue) Review
Often i was having trouble deciding which discman to get: The choices were the non-rugged versions of discman, with great features such as a remote control and AM/FM tuner, or the Shockwave model, which could withstand daily abuse (I am a student, so it gets bashed around quite frequently in my backpack). However, the shockwave models never offered a headphone remote or a useful radio tuner.I am the owner of the previous Shockwave model (the fat 10 second anti-shock model). It has served me well, but left me wanting more.This new model incorporates the best of both worlds: feature rich, rugged design, and relatively thin cross-section, and I would recommend it to anyone who wants a great discman that is almost indestructable, as far as discmans go.PROS:-great XBS sound from Panasonic
-super rugged design
-thin, compared to previous plastic models
-AM/FM tuner
-headphone remote (for those wondering, this was never included on any previous shockwave models)
-great, solid design, all buttons and latches feel solid, and comes with embedded handgrip
-anti-shock 4.0 40 seconds, almost skip-free
-battery life rated for over 20 hours, uses AA batteries unlike some ultraslims, that use expensive AAA batteries
-rechargable battery capable
-comes with AC adapter to save batteries
CONS:
-for those who do not require a rugged model, go for a thinner, lighter discman. Will save money and pocket weight. Help other customers find the most helpful reviews� Was this review helpful to you?�Yes No Report abuse | PermalinkComment Comment
