Sharp SD-CX2. Released alongside the SD-CX3. The difference between the two seems to be the included speaker package.

  • Audio system “Auvi” equipped with original “1 bit digital amplifier”
  • “1 bit digital amplifier” that amplifies 1 bit signal by ultra high speed sampling of 2.8MHz and obtains resolution equivalent to 64 times that of CD powered by.
  • The A / D converter is equipped with a “high-precision 1-chip delta-sigma modulation LSI”. The deterioration of sound quality is prevented by converting an analog signal into a 1-bit signal and performing digital transmission / amplification processing.
  • In addition to being able to record at double speed from a CD to an MD, it is also equipped with a "top position recording function" that allows you to additionally record the first song of the MD with a single touch, and a "hypertrack edit function" that allows you to specify while listening to the song to be edited. * Equipped with "X-BASS circuit" that reproduces deep bass and 4-mode preset sound function of FLAT / HEAVY / POPS / SOFT.

Supports CD Text and Katakana characters for MD

FM: 76.0-108.0MHz
