ATRAC3plus
The ATRAC3plus compression rate is approximately 20 times higher than that of the Audio CD, resulting an increased data capacity for the media. Bit rates 64kbps and 48kbps, are available. ATRAC3plus enhanced compression technology provides excellent music.
A digital process, BBE MP restores and enhances harmonics lost in prviously compressed music files-ATRAC3 and MP3.
BTM
BTM (Best Tuning Memory) automatically selects and stores the stations with the strongest signals, in order of frequency.
CD/MD Changer Control
This Function offers control of the MD/CD Changer using the Sony Bus System.
CD-Text
The CD player displays the album name and track titles so you can easily navigate through your disc collection in a multi-CD changer. It does so by extracting text data from CD Text capable CDs.

Signal-To-Noise compares the strength of music to the level of background noise-the higher the value, the lesser the background noise.
S-MOSFET Power IC
1.3 Times larger than conventional MOSFET's, the new S-MOFET Power IC utilises Silicon On Insulator (S.O.I) semiconductor technology that produces clearer, more accurate sounds with less distortion and a higher signal-to-noise ratio.
SSIR-EXA Tuner
SSIR-EX Advanced this tuner can automatically control the IF bandwidth in the FM band, reducing sound interference.
FL3D
Employing a brighter self-emitting light for sharper images of up to 130 x 139 dots resolution, the Fluorescent display puts realism in all your images.
