U.S.A. and Puerto Rico: www.panasonic.com/support Canada: www.panasonic.ca/english/support Register online at www.panasonic.com/register (U.S. customers only) Features of this unit This unit offers the following features:

Digital Noise Isolation Architecture Since most digital content storage media are intended for use with PCs, they are not designed with consideration for low noise, which is critical to pure audio reproduction. To overcome this challenge, this unit employs a thorough measure against jitter and outstanding noise blocking technology for each of its interfaces, delivering clear sound. Virtual Battery Operation Virtual Battery Operation prevents power supply noise, a factor that causes turbidity in sound, from mixing into the audio signal. The result is an improvement in sound localisation performance and spatial expression. Ultra Low Distortion Oversampling Digital Filter High-precision oversampling eliminates distortion and enhances the sound quality of music sources, thus reproducing sound rich with spatial expression. Recommended devices We recommend using Technics devices (optional) for superior audio quality. Product name Speaker System Compact Disc Player Stereo Integrated Amplifier
