Description:

Get back on track with your exercise with a little help from Panasonic's slim SL-CT485 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 40-second memory reserve for added back up.

The player is conveniently compatible with either AA or AAA batteries, deriving up to 35 hours of playback from two AA batteries or 14 hours of playback from two AAA batteries (two of each are supplied). Logically arranged, top-mounted controls simplify operation, while a large, easy-to-read LCD shows disc status.

Model SL-CT485 also includes a six-key wired remote for operation of all major functions and a jogger belt clip for added convenience while exercising. A hold function 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-CT485'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 four-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.
