Sony D-NF420PSBLUE portable CD player

Date Published: 1/11/06

The Sony D-NF420PSBLUE portable CD player can be considered a jack-of-all-trades. This extremely versatile unit is compatible with audio CD and CD-R/RW, and it can also play MP3 and ATRAC files stored on CD.

It comes with SonicStage software, which enables users to create and burn digital music files to disc and connect to Sony's online music store to purchase music files for download.

In addition to its excellent disc playback capabilities, the D-NF420PSBLUE has a built-in radio. However, this is no ordinary AM/FM receiver; the D-NF420PSBLUE can pick up local television audio and Weather band on its digital tuner, and there are presets for up to 51 stations. A three-line display helps keep all of this information straight.

A member of Sony's Psyc product line, the D-NF420PSBLUE is available in a gorgeous shade of blue. It uses one AA battery, and it sports an automatic shut-off to conserve power. An integrated equalizer lets listeners adjust the playback sound to their individual tastes.

While there are a numerous portable CD players with radios and MP3 playback, few can compare to the features and price of the Sony D-NF420PSBLUE.
