Product Description
Aiwa's XP-MP3 is an MP3-capable portable CD player with excellent audio quality and perhaps the best song/directory navigation on the market. The XP-MP3 plays standard audio CDs, as well as MP3 files. It supports both CD-R and CD-RW discs and will even play back multisession discs. Sound quality is quite good for all audio files. Aiwa's consumer audio experience shows in the XP-MP3's control panel. Controls are logically laid out in an oval pattern, with dedicated keys for moving between directories. You can play MP3 CDs in Disc mode, where all operations affect the entire CD, or in Album mode, where they work on a single directory. The LCD screen shows the current track and album number, as well as the various playback options such as random, program, and resume.There's more - along with MP3 playback, the XP-MP3 gives you all the accessories you need for MP3 CDs in the car! With the included car cassette and car power adapters, you really can take your MP3s everywhere. On top of that, you get Electronic Anti Shock System Plus (to reduce skipping when listening to regular audio CDs), Dynamic Super Linear bass boost, and a sturdy design that can handle rough treatment.

Play MP3-CDs, CD-R, CD-RW, and conventional discs, with the Aiwa XPMP3. With its E.A.S.S. (Electronic Anti-Shock System) technology, you'll get 10 seconds of skip protection with audio (inactive during MP3 playback) for protection against rocky roads--particularly handy when you use the included car kit adapter and take your tunes on the road. An in-line remote control, a start-mode switch for faster CD startup, and some snazzy over-the-ear headphones come with the player.
