Product Description
Product Description
Ideal for summer fun, the ZS-X3CP CD/Radio boombox offers all-systems-go media playback and a sturdy, water-resistant design so tunes can go almost anywhere you do. Its MP3-compatible CD player uses a jog-lever navigation control to help quickly and easily select the song or album being looked for, and a four-line, dot-matrix display further simplifies navigation.
The ZS-X3CP's ergonomic design includes innovative features such as a carry handle spanning its stereo speakers and function controls closely clustered for ready access while listening. Sony's ESP2 CD shock protection uses advanced technology to provide skip-free playback during active use, and the water-resistant design makes use of high-impact plastic housing with rubber gaskets, bushings and waterproof seals that help keep out water, moisture and dirt. (The unit is explicitly not designed for immersion in water.)
The ZS-X3CP comes with a digital AM/FM stereo tuner, too, boasting 30-station memory presets (20 FM, 10 AM) and drift-free reception. Other features include resume (which re-starts a compact disc from the beginning of the track where playback last stopped, even in MP3 mode), Mega Bass sound for enhanced low frequencies, 20-track CD programming, shuffle play and repeat play (one/all/program).
Manufacturer's Description
This is the box that rocks. Grabbing attention, thanks to Sony’s radical design, this slick player lets you enjoy MP3s and CD-R/RWs as well as normal CDs, while its seamless tuning between radio stations is a breeze.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Amazing for a portable,
By Clive "Clive" (London) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Sony S2 ZS-X3CP MP3 CD Player With Radio (Electronics)
This is quite an expensive portable stereo, but is simply of a much higher quality all round, than the other offerings in other stores. I liked the fact that the stereo does not have a tape deck as I don't own any cassettes and its nice not to pay for something that you will never use. The case is extremely tough, stylish and well put together, its even splash proof! The CD player plays MP3s too which is great and the backlit LCD is large enough for you too be able to search through folders on MP3 cds. The sound quality is excellent for a portable (similar to a small midi system) and you can't tell the difference between MP3s (128bit) and normal cds. The battery life is great too at 14hours cd playback (6 D cells or HP2 batteries).Overall I would totally recommend this portable. It is very well made and sounds great from either the cd player or the radio. The only down side for some people, will be the lack of tape deck, but on many portables these days the quality of the tape deck is quite poor. Top marks Sony!

5.0 out of 5 stars
If you can get one, do.,
By Otto Yamamoto "Otto Yamamoto" (Highland, NY) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Sony S2 ZS-X3CP MP3 CD Player With Radio (Electronics)
Picked up one of these at a discount after toying with the idea of buying one for a year or so. The looks are weird; and the CD lid is cheapie; and there's no line in, but radio sensitivity is way above average on both bands-much better than you'd expect in this price range(or higher), Sound quality is good, the bass boost is useful; and it's fairly easy to run out of the box(only had to look at the instructions to find out how to manually preset stations). The display is small, but presents information well. There's also a silly "Graphics" mode that will appeal to Windows Media Player fans. It shows dots and lines that have nothing to do with anything, could be a laugh if you leave it on and someone notices it, you could yell that they broke your stereo.

Huge sound!,

This review is from: Sony S2 ZS-X3CP MP3 CD Player With Radio (Electronics)
Sony really has out done itself with this item! It's light weight, easy to take anywhere and has a sound the surpasses any portable cd player I've ever heard! It gives you a bass boost and speakers that run the entire front to back length of the player which gives you the sound of a big stereo system and the capablity of playing mps files! It's a winner! (and it looks so cool!)
