MP3-CD Playback
The MP3-CD format combines the advantages of MP3
digital audio compression with the affordable and widely
accepted CD storage format. The end result is that a tiny
8cm MP3-CD can hold over 3 hours of MP3 music, while
a normal 12cm disc can hold over 10 hours. Using
readily available software, you can rip music from your
audio CDs or download MP3 music legally from the
internet and burn it to a recordable or rewritable 12cm
or 8cm CD. The resulting MP3-CD can be played back as
though it were a normal audio CD.
Class ‘D’ Digital Amplifier
Class ‘D’ Digital Amplifier takes an analog signal, converts
it into a digital signal and then amplifies the signal
digitally. The signal then enters a demodulation filter to
give the final output. The amplified digital output delivers
all the advantages of digital audio, including improved
sound quality. In addition, Class ‘D’ Digital Amplifier has
greater than 90% efficiency compared to traditional AB
amplifiers. This high efficiency translates into a powerful
amplifier with a small footprint.
Neodymium Ribbon Tweeter for impressive,
audio fidelity
The Neodymium Ribbon Tweeter is a monopole tweeter
that produces dynamic and crisp sound from the front. It
is a feature commonly used in high-end audio systems to
reproduce sound with excellent fidelity. Conventional
cones and dome tweeters are based on a directional
moving coil principle whereas the monopole Neodymium
Ribbon Tweeter radiates high frequencies in a full 180degree radiation pattern. This dramatically increases the
width of the sound spectrum in the higher tones and
expands the sweet spot zone to deliver wide, crystal-clear,
and natural sound even from compact audio systems.
Treble and Bass Control for easy high and low
tone settings
Treble and bass are equalizer features that control the
high and low frequency sound levels of your audio
respectively. Treble specifically regulates the amplification
of the high tones in the music while bass controls the
amplification level of the low tones. Using the up and
down keys, the listener can conveniently place more or
less emphasis on the low and high tones, or leave treble
and bass flat to playback music according to its original
recorded setting. Treble and Bass Control lets you listen to
your music the way you like it.
