Product Description
The SL-CT495J super slim portable CD player with jogger system gets up to 40 hours of playback time with two AA alkaline batteries. The portable CD player has been designed to virtually eliminate CD skipping under normal listening conditions, and 48-second backup memory provides further assurance of a near perfect, skip-free listening experience. You can enjoy listening to CDs that you make, since this portable CD player enables playback of CD-R and CD-RW discs. The SL-CT495J is thin, lightweight, and easy to take on the go. The portable CD player comes with a wired remote control that you can clip to your clothing, preventing it from getting in your way while you're mobile. Program your portable CD player to play a CD at random, in a specified order, or to repeat one song or the whole disc, letting you enjoy your favorite tunes without interruption. XBS gives your music an added bass boost for fuller sound. The portable CD player can be used outdoors because of a heat-resistant, polycarbonate body design. In order to load a CD, the top of the player fully opens, and a slide lock closes it back up once your CD is placed inside, making sure your player won't open during playback. An included pair of stereo headphones lets you enjoy your music to the fullest.

Get back on track with your exercise with a little help from Panasonic's slim SL-CT495J portable CD player. The player is outfitted with rugged anti-skip protection and includes a handy belt clip to fasten the unit to your clothes during active use. The player's No Skip technology combines rubber, shock-absorbing brushings and an anti-skip digital servo with 48-second memory reserve for added back up.

Panasonic's Power Last system uses a highly efficient motor with low-load circuitry for drastically improved playback time, helping the player derive up to 40 hours of playback from two standard AA batteries (not supplied).

A hold function activated from the supplied wired remote control prevents unintended interruptions in playback and saves batteries by negating playback when the player is stopped. You can set it to lock the player, the remote control, or both.

The SL-CT495J's digital-to-analog converter is Panasonic's single-bit MASH (multi-stage noise shaping technology) DAC, designed to virtually eliminate distortion and deliver all the subtleties and nuances that make digital recordings so rich.

Playback options include 24-track programming, repeat (track or disc), and random play, and a three-preset equalizer lets you tailor the sound to your preference--choose from S-XBS (extra bass system), live, train (high cut). Auto power-off prevents battery drainage after your CD has ended, and the unit's aluminum top cover and polycarbonate body protects the player from the elements.
