Product Description
Amazon.com Product Description
Panasonic's SL-SW899V 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 its antishock memory system. 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 SL-SW899V 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. 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 from 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 SL-SW899V 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.



From Digital Living Today
A Portable CD player is a must for any household. Whether you use it in the car, during your commute to work, or while you exercise, it's essential to be able to have high quality music with you when you're on the go. The Panasonic SL-SW899V Shockwave Portable CD Player is a small, reasonably priced unit that can play CDs and allow you to listen to AM/FM radio as well. Protected by an anti-shock case on the outside and an impressive, 40-second anti-skip system on the inside, the SL-SW899V can endure more rough and tumble than most machines in its class, providing you with clean uninterrupted sound. Panasonic claims the SL-SW899V will play up to 25 hours on a single set of batteries.

4 out of 5 stars Not bad.........2002-04-10

Overall, the Cd player is very good. The overall build of the player feels very solid. however, the locks/latches break VERY easily. mine broke and the ones i've seen at several stores are also broken. The radio reception is great. The sound quality is pretty good. the provided headphones are TERRIBLE. they hurt after use. It's pretty hard to make this cd player skip. hasn't even skipped once on me yet. overall, a great buy. the things i have problem with is the price and the flimisiness of the latches.

5 out of 5 stars The best one out there!.......2002-04-03

I bought this cd player when no one really liked it. I decided to buy it myself and so far i have had it for a year and a half. The buttons are easy to use, you also have a very hard protective shield. For example i have a friend who always drops my cd player on the bus. And even through that it lives! And believe me she drops it almost everyday. Just dont throw it against something on purpose just to make sure it will not break. Ok so the radio isn't that hot. but the stations i listen to come through clearly. and a piece of advice. Do Not play the radio by a power line even though i don't know who would... It's just a piece of advice. You barely ever need the manual, cause it's that easy to use. And also the headphones stink! Throw them away and buy a new pair. I have really good ones and they only cost probably ...[a few bucks]. So just go out and buy this cd player!!!! I get compliments all the time on how cool this cd player is. So if anything buy this cd player. even though after i listed the headphones stink and the radio is ok, you probably think i would've rated this product a 4 or 3. Well unlike everyone else i love this cd player and i wouldn't trade it in for any other!!!! Go buy it, it's great!
