Description:

The Philips EXP325 is a great basic CD player with rich sound and extended, 100-second skip protection. It's perfect for listening, studying, and exercising. It offers shuffle and repeat modes and its heat-resistant body lets you use this CD player anywhere--at the beach, pool, in the car with the supplied DC power adapter, or simply outside on your deck using an AC power adapter (also supplied).

"Magic" electronics skip protection automatically stores digital music information during play using a 100-second buffer (MP3, 128 kbps) and inserts it in place of lost information when the CD player is bumped or shaken, preventing interruptions caused by shocks and vibration. Playback options include 50-track programming for extended MP3 sequencing, resume (a bookmark function that picks up playback where you last stopped), repeat (track or disc), and random play.

MP3 features include ID3 tag recognition for convenient song and artist name displays, and a navigation system that lets you scroll through discs by either album or by individual track.

A hold switch prevents unintended interruptions in playback and saves batteries by negating playback when the player is stopped. Auto power off kicks in one minute after playback has ended, an additional battery-saving convenience. The onboard one-bit digital-to-analog converter renders digital audio as smoothly and accurately as possible. The player runs for approximately 20 hours (MP3 playback; 15 hours for audio CD) on two standard AA batteries (not supplied).
