  • Sturdy, all-Magnesium construction

This stylish, versatile player sports a sturdy, all-Magnesium construction, and lets you store up to 45 hours of digital music and bring it with you on a single, skip-free, 1 GB Hi-MD MiniDisc that holds far more songs than traditional MiniDisc media. With Sony's advanced ATRAC3plus compression, more audio files can be burned to Hi-MD media or for that matter, to a standard MiniDisc. Music can be compressed to 132, 105, 66, 64 or 48 kbps (kilobits per second), so you can store more music or record at higher fidelity. By compressing at 48 kbps, users can enjoy 45 hours of music on one Hi-MD disc or 13 hours of music on one standard, 80-minute MiniDisc.

In addition to ATRAC3plus format compatibility, the Walkman is compatible with MP3, WMA, WAV, and ATRAC3 audio formats. When you want to record, the USB connection delivers burn rates at up to 100x for your MP3s and CDs. A handy Jog Dial provides easy navigation, and SonicStage and MD Simple Burner Application software lets you group your tunes and customize your playing environment.

This player also includes line-in functionality for a line, mic, or mini analog optical inputs, and a USB-in port, as well as a handy USB cradle, for easy PC connection and charging the included rechargeable battery. You'll also get such niceties as headphone volume control along with the included set of headphones. And, the player's 3-line LCD display provides album, artist and song title information on a clean, single screen. You can even store data from your computer, such as documents and presentations, on this player via its USB interface.

Experience Movies Like Never Before

The DMP-BD45 employs the PHL Reference Chroma Processor Plus. Developed in collaboration with Panasonic Hollywood Laboratory, this high image processing technology reproduces clear, vivid colors that are faithful to the original film.

Panasonic's Blu-ray Disc players employ high precision 4:4:4 signal technology, which working in tandem with PHL Reference Chroma Processor Plus processes each pixel of the Blu-ray Disc video signal in the horizontal direction to compliment vertical direction processing. P4HD (Pixel Precision Progressive Processing for HD) is another technology that contributes to the superior picture quality of the Blu-ray players. P4HD processes more than 15 billion pixels per second and applies the optimal processing to every pixel.

Panasonic's Blu-ray Disc players further utilize 16-level motion detection to categorize the image motion of each pixel into one of 16 levels; diagonal processing to detect diagonals and correct the pixels accordingly; 1080p up-conversion to up-convert content recorded in the 480i/p or 720p format to 1080p.

This Blu-ray Disc player also provides 1080/24p output, reproducing cinema images from a Blu-ray Disc and DVD in their original 24p form with no need for conversion--enabling you to enjoy cinema images in the same format used in cinema with a 1080/24p-compatible TV.

Ultra Fast 0.5 sec Booting For faster, stress free enjoyment of BD Content.

Product Description From the Manufacturer The MZ-R37SP is a reasonably priced portable MiniDisc player and recorder. It includes a big 40-second shock buffer.

Product Description The MZ-R37SP is a reasonably priced portable MiniDisc player and recorder. It includes a big 40-second shock buffer. While the 40-second buffer should be enough to offer virtually skip-free operation while you exercise, most MD portables on the market these days deliver comparable protection. This unit comes with an optical digital connecting cable you can run from your CD player to the MZ-R37SP for recording. It also offers Digital Synchro Recording, which triggers the MD player's recording function the instant a signal is received from the CD player. What's more, this model's sample rate converter allows recording from digital sources recorded at different sampling rates without you having to make any adjustments. The MZ-R37SP includes Sony's AVLS (Automatic Volume Limiter System), which keeps the music from playing dangerously loud when activated. It also has the requisite "Mega Bass" bass boost system.
