Slim portable player aimed at “people in their 20s and trend setters.” Came bundled with a backlit remote (RFEV020P-SM) and AA sidecar.

By adopting low-power LSI, integrating driver ICs (3 ICs to 1 IC), and developing a low-power spindle motor, we have succeeded in significantly reducing power consumption. Realized time continuous playback.
In addition, it is possible to play continuously for about 16 hours with just one rechargeable battery that can be built into the main unit. 40 hours with sidecar
40-second memory vibration resistance to protect sound from shock
Practical maximum output (EIAJ): ６mW ＋６mW

From the press release: “The lid is machined to a micron level and has a shiny design that resembles an optical disc. When the disc is empty, the inside cannot be seen, and it reflects light and shines blue. A magic mirror system has been adopted, which allows the disc to be seen through when the disc is inserted.”

Does not have AC adapter plug on device. It needs a DC in adapter (RP-WA10) in order to use the AC Adapter (RP-AC11D or RP-AK15, both are center positive 1.5v adapters).
