You can enjoy the following five play modes:
“Normal play”, “Repeat play — all the
tracks”, “Single track play”, “Repeat play —
a single track” and “Repeat shuffle play”.
The typical ESP (Electronic Shock Protection)
function minimizes skipping by using a
buffer memory that stores music data and
plays it back in the event of a shock.
The ESP MAX system is an extremely
sophisticated technology. Due to the light
weight and improved anti-shock
characteristics of the optical block, this system
recovers from the skipping much quicker
than conventional technology such as ESP or
