Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

Panasonic's SC-EN7 executive microsystem looks as good as it sounds. The CD-based SC-EN7's accent on design and convenience is expressed through its gentle-recline, motorized CD tray and straightforward performance. Features include random, program, repeat CD playback, and a digital-synthesized FM/AM tuner with 30-preset (15 FM, 15 AM) memory. A backlit LCD makes it easy to read program and station information.

The CD player offers CD-R/CD-RW compatibility, the capability to play MP3 digital audio, and Panasonic's MASH one-bit digital-to-analog converter for optimal sound reproduction. Sound enhancements include four equalizer settings (bass, clear, soft, and vocal) and Panasonic's Live Virtualizer, which energizes sounds in the vocal and midfrequency ranges.

The tuner offers autotuning to the 30 most-available stations, and you can use the convenient programmable timer to wake yourself up to a favorite CD or radio station, or merely make sure you never miss an important broadcast.

The SC-EN7 has a headphone jack and an auxiliary minijack input for connecting an MP3 player. It also offers a clock with a wakeup timer.

What's in the Box
SC-EN7 microsystem, remote control, 2 AA batteries, and printed operating instructions. It's backed by a 1-year limited warranty.

4.0 out of 5 stars Desktop mini-stereo SC-EN7, June 17, 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: Panasonic SC-EN7 Slim-Design CD Desktop Audio System (Electronics)

I bought this with quite a bit of reluctance as a player for work. It is actually working out fine...

PLUS
--Nice looking 3+ people came by and admired it.
--I use headphones almost exclusively and sound was fine (I haven't used speakers yet).
--Line in capabilities
--FM reception is decent (of course this is affected by how much interference around the player).
--Reasonably small footprint.
--AC adaptor--I love not having to keep changing batteries the way I used to with my MP3 players.
--MP3 capable--even displays MP3/ID3 tag info and handles folders.
--Affordable

MINUS
--Headphone jack is in back (inconvenient)
--Sliding door access to CD player is a little awkward
--If you lose the remote you lose some functionality not available on the player.
--No random play feature

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Sound and Stylish, January 2, 2005

This review is from: Panasonic SC-EN7 Slim-Design CD Desktop Audio System (Electronics)

I went shopping for a system that had superior sound and found it with this after previewing several systems that cost more. The highs are open and airy, and the bass is tight and full -- not at all boomy as on some boomboxes. The CD player plays CD-R/CD-RW and MP3 flawlessly. The radio quality is excellent even in my urban location. My guess is that the reviewers who complained of poor sonic quality failed to use the four equalizer settings (bass, clear, soft, and vocal) and Panasonic's Live Virtualizer to tune the sound to their taste. This is a well-designed, high quality music system at a fair price.

4.0 out of 5 stars Decent unit, May 5, 2004

Amazon Verified Purchase

This review is from: Panasonic SC-EN7 Slim-Design CD Desktop Audio System (Electronics)

Good sound for the dollars spent.
Compact unit take up a small amount of shelf space.
Typical single CD functions.
Hard to read the display from much more than 3 feet away.

Downside:
Has a regular pole FM antenna rather than one built in to the cord, as well as a separate AM antenna - tough if you have limited space above the unit.
