Hi there, this is my very first post here in Head-fi..
=) So I'm totally a greenhorn here.
I have the Panasonic SL-CT780 player (The asian set), and I have encountered some problems. I wonder if these problems are restricted to my player only, so need to ask you guys here.
This player has a resume function, which cannot be disabled, unlike the older Panasonic models.
I notice one strange thing when I use the player.
Assume that I've played the disc halfway, and I shut down the player. After that, when I 'resume' from where I've stopped, I could hear the lens travel all the way from the middle to the front, and then back.
This consumes a heck of my batteries, and as a result, my batteries die off quickly (compared to my old SL-CT570).
Do you guys have this problem when you use your players?
Another question is regarding the purchase of earphones.
The pair of earbuds (that came with the Asian set) is pretty good for a "out-of-the-box" earbud, but I want to change it into something better. Based on the reviews conducteds here, I've limited down to 2 choices: the Sony E888s, and the MX500.
My question is that: Are these 2 earphones far better than the standard stock earbuds that Panasonic gives?
I listen to jazz, and pop.
I've my eyes set more on the 888s, but I heard that they go less deep in bass.
Is that true?
And, are the 888s 'shrieky', I can't stand prolonged exposure to huge anounts of treble...
Thanks a lot for your replys, and I'm looking forward to reading them. Thanks once again.
