Product Description

Amazon.com Product 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.

What's in the Box
CD player, stereo headphones, wired remote control, belt clip, two AA batteries, two AAA batteries, and a user's manual.

4.0 out of 5 stars Does the job., October 30, 2001

"danoneill" (Nantucket, MA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Panasonic SL-CT485 Portable CD Player (Electronics)
I like this CD Player as it has great sound,'never skips'and it is very light and portable. It is also durable as it has been dropped from a height quite a few times and it still plays perfectly. The remote control is very useful and the headphones are comfortable.The only thing that I didn't like about it was how quickly it drains batterys, AA batterys last around 3 weeks. Not what I expected. I think that it is too expensive for what it is, there are better deals out there, so shop around.

5.0 out of 5 stars Impressive, June 2, 2002
By 
This review is from: Panasonic SL-CT485 Portable CD Player (Electronics)
This is a great cd player. not only is it thin and light weight but it is tough, i have dropped mine numerous times and it still works perfectly. the ability to use AA or AAA batteries is great and so is the amount of playing time u get from them. Another other great thing about it were the controls on the headphone wire.
the bad things... it doesn't tell u when you're battery is getting low, only when it is dead and i ended up losing the extra part needed to play AAA batteries. other than that this cd player is well worth the money and will not dissapoint you.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not for the clumsy, February 13, 2002
By 
This review is from: Panasonic SL-CT485 Portable CD Player (Electronics)
This is an excellent CD player, that is until you drop it. It works really well, the antiskip blocks out any skip that may be caused, and the remote is really handy. One problem I found was that when you turned it on, it starts from the track which you were playing last, which gets a little annoying. I dropped it from about a one foot height, and it split in two. I would personally go for a more sturdy cd player next time I and going to buy.
