Memorex MD6450CP Personal CD Player with Car Kit and 12-CD Carrying Case
Manufacturer: Memorex ProductGroup: CE Binding: Electronics Accessories:
Product Features:
ASIN: B00004S7ND |
Amazon.com Review
If we could give a most-valuable-player award to an audio component, the Memorex MD6450CP personal CD player would be a top candidate. By packaging a high-quality portable with an AC adapter, patch cord, and car stereo adapter, Memorex delivers a product that moves from your hip to your home to your car with surprising dexterity. This package even includes a padded wallet to carry 12 of your favorite CDs.In addition to the basic operations (play/pause, stop, forward, reverse), the MD6450CP includes a button that overrides the antishock memory in order to save battery life when stationary. It also has an excellent LCD display and a mode selector that enables 24-track programming, disc and track repeat, and an intro option that plays the first 30 seconds of each song. The left side of this sleek machine features a Bass Boost switch that provides the lightweight, flimsy headphones with welcome low-frequency augmentation. Volume, power, headphone, and line-out facilities are on the MD6450CP's right.
The key to the MD6450's versatility is its generous 40-second antishock protection. How does it work? As the disc plays, the upcoming 40 seconds of music are continually stored in a "buffer memory." If a bump, fall, or other impact causes the player to skip, the player immediately defaults to this memory storage, giving you uninterrupted playback.
During a series of torture tests, which included hiking, biking, jogging, and off-road driving in an SUV, this player delivered a steady stream of music without interruption. The ability to add CD capability to a cassette-only car stereo is a particularly attractive option. Plug the power adapter into the vehicle's cigarette lighter and the player's power socket, pop the adapter into the cassette deck, connect it to the headphone output, and you'll be treated to a first-class audio experience.
Connecting this unit to your home stereo is equally simple. The supplied patch cords run between the player's line-out socket and any stereo input (except phono) on your receiver. Connect the AC adapter and start spinning discs! Compared to more expensive home units, the Memorex lacks subtle musical details and can't achieve the airy, three-dimensional presentation of the best high-end machines. Thanks to its 1-bit digital-to-analog converter, it offers consistently pleasant and fatigue-free sound.
The included headphones are a minor disappointment; they're merely adequate. Needless to say, using the MD6450 with a better set will yield noticeably improved audio.
Whether you're shopping for a personal CD player, a new car stereo, or even a new home system, the Memorex MD6450CP should be near the top of your "must hear" list. --Anthony Chiarella

the little CD player that couldn't.......2001-01-25
Good boom for the buck.......2000-10-14
Very Poor Product.......2000-07-26
Its awesome.......2000-07-25
It's worth the 60 dollars. I'm happy I got it........2000-07-20
I find it skips a little when I walk fast and carry it loose in my bag. could be due to the way the 40 second buffer works, ie if you skip to song 15, it plays right away, but the buffer takes time to fill so you may skip. in my car it never skipped, even when it fell off the seat onto the floor.
The sound is good. at really high volumes it's not perfect. Good headphones are a requirement, I already had some. Sounds very good in my car too, though not like a high end cd player. the adapter cables look thin and may not hold up over time. My car adapter may be broken, because much more sound comes out of the right than the left channel. I would send it back but I love having it so much I don't want to part with it.
If you have high requirements, you should probably go elsewhere, but I am very happy with mine. I think if you run, then perhaps an MP3 player with no moving parts is the way to go.

Product Description
The promise of widescreen video is here - but that's a problem for DV shooters using their in-camera DV Widescreen switching.Now capture 16:9 images without sacrificing resolution or angle of view. Some switchable camcorders work by effectively masking the top and bottom of the chip, utilizing only 75% of the original scan lines. Result: lost resolution and lost angle of view! The Century Precision 16:9 is a true anamorphic adapter that captures the full 16:9 image onto the 4:3 chip, utilizing every pixel for a full resolution image.Unlike in-camera masking, the Century 16:9 Widescreen Adapter is an anamorphic for true widescreen video on your MiniDV Camcorder.

You'd be hard-pressed to find an FRS radio that packs as many features into such a compact and attractive package as Cobra's FRS115 Microtalk. In addition to having a multitude of advanced communications features, the Microtalk is the only radio in Cobra's line capable of picking up AM and FM signals. This allows you to listen to stereo broadcasts via headphones attached to the integrated headphone jack. Incoming FRS broadcasts temporarily disrupt the AM or FM reception, which, when we tested it, enabled us to listen to our favorite tunes and talk radio programs without missing an important transmission from a member of our group.The product's design is as sensible as it is colorful, incorporating a flexible rubber antenna instead of hard plastic. The unit's many buttons are easily accessible yet difficult to push by accident, and there's a channel-lock feature that comes in handy when inquisitive kids (or clumsy friends) are entrusted with the radio.
A call button can be pushed to make other FRS radios tuned to your frequency "ring," alerting others in your party that you are about to make a transmission. There are independent buttons for adjusting the unit's volume and selecting channels, along with a microphone jack that can be used with a separately available headset to allow for hands-free operation.
The Microtalk did a great job in our tests, with a range comparable to that of other FRS units and decent audio quality from the built-in speaker. We ditched the included headphones, as their hard plastic design made them uncomfortable, and used a pair of compact earbuds instead. We expected AM and FM reception to be limited, but it was pulling in signals in a basement office that even standalone portable radios we've tested couldn't tune. A handy seek feature simplified tuning, and memory presets kept our favorite stations within easy reach.
If the included headphones were only better, this would be a near-perfect FRS radio. But even with that slight oversight, the Microtalk is a standout in a crowded market. --Tracy Baker
