Title: Solid player
Product review: This player is an excellent performer with its anti-shock and extra bass options. Unfortunately, unlike its predecessors it offers little physical shock resistance, so you have to leave the anti-shock on or it'll skip when you set it down.It plays CD-R discs with no problem but has a strange quirk with CD-RW audio discs; it will play them 3 or 4 times but after that won't recognize them. Erasing and re-recording the disc does make it go away, but it's not worth it.The battery life is excellent, even with the anti-shock on. One feature from older Panasonics that I miss is the ability to quickly pull the AC/DC adapter out of the back of the unit while it was playing. The old ones switched to battery; this one shuts off.Don't buy this unit for the remote; wireless remotes on portable CD players are not worth extra money. Unlike wired ones, they get lost easily and must be pointed at the unit.The tape adapter works just fine and the AC and DC adapters run very cool . . .
