Amazon.com Product Description
Combining a compact body, stylish good looks, and an impressive array of technical features, this Sony Psyc CD boombox is a great fit for music fans of all stripes. The boombox boasts an imaginative chassis with elegant curves and a sleek control panel, giving it a high-tech yet casual look that's quite original among CD players. It's perfect for everything from backyard barbecues to tailgaters to house parties. More significantly, the device is far more than a straightforward boombox, as it's compatible with MP3, ATRAC3, and ATRAC3plus formats when burned onto a CD-R or CD-RW disc, and includes a built-in digital AM/FM tuner. ATRAC3plus is a high-quality audio compression technology that reduces the size of digital audio files while preserving much of a track's original sound quality (similar in concept to MP3 and Dolby Digital sound formats). With ATRAC3plus, music can be burned and compressed at 132, 105, 66, 64, or even 48 kbps (kilobits per second), letting users select the right balance between fidelity and storage space. The end result is a huge increase in CD-R/RW capacity, as each disc can hold as many as 490 ATRAC3plus songs at 48 kbps.
To assist listeners in managing the ATRAC3 and ATRAC3plus files, Sony has included music management software with each Psyc CD boombox. The easy-to-use application helps you create your own music compilations on CD-R/RW media through your computer's CD burner. The software is also compatible with Sony's Connect Music store, which offers an extensive online music library with a huge catalog of songs available for quick and easy download. Once the songs are burned to a disc, listeners can glean track, album, and artist information from the boombox's two-line dot matrix display, which supports ID3 tagging.
Among the Psyc boombox's CD playback modes are track programming, shuffle play, and repeat play, all of which let you hear tracks in nonsequential order depending on your mood. Track navigation is easier than ever thanks to the jog lever, a scrolling dial that helps you search for specific songs or artists, along with the 10-key direct access remote control. Meanwhile, the digital AM/FM tuner offers a great way to listen to your preferred public radio program, catch the local football broadcast, and groove to your favorite DJ's rhythm while working in the garage. The drift-free tuner also comes with 30 station presets (20 FM and 10 AM) for quick and easy access to any channel on the dial.
And to ensure that the sound is rich and complex, the boombox offers several audio add-ons beyond its pair of 4-inch stereo speakers. The Mega Bass sound system, for instance, produces rich, deep, powerful low-end tones that boost the overall performance, making everything from hip-hop to jazz sound full and robust. Listeners will also delight in the four preset sound modes--for jazz, rock, pop, and vocal styles--along with a custom mode that you can tailor to your personal tastes.
As a final bonus, the Psyc boombox comes with a PC/auxiliary audio input. The 3.5 mm jack connects such devices as iPod, flash memory MP3 players, or PCs directly to the boombox, in effect giving you a pair of portable speakers for audio playback. The plug-and-play operation is great for listening to MP3 or WMA songs without hassling with the CD-burning process, or for listening to live streaming audio from the Internet.
The boombox, which includes a headphone jack for private listening, offers up to eight hours of CD playback on six D-size batteries, or up to 25 hours of radio playback. It's also backed by a one-year warranty on parts and labor.
