The IM-DR580H's Multi-Link Station lets you connect your MD
player to your computer, for quick and simple downloading of your favourite CD, MP3 and WAVE music files.
Plus, along with a range of handy connections – including USB, optical input, and audio and speaker outs –
the Multi-Link Station brings the convenience of slot-in recharging and computer-free editing. |

While personal MD players offer convenience and portability,
they typically sacrifice sound quality to do so. Not any more. The IM-DR580H takes portable music to new
levels of fidelity, thanks to its cutting-edge SHARP technology. With its 1-bit digital amplifier, full-bridge
output and 4-pole earphone plug, the IM-DR580H is nothing less than a small-scale revolution in sound. |

Net MD helps you get the most out of those music files stored on your PC. With Net MD, once you've
arranged on your PC the tracks you want to copy, you can transfer them effortlessly to MD via a 50x
speed USB connection. Making compilations of your favourite tunes has never been easier or faster. |

The IM-DR580H has all
the music-playing stamina you need. Thanks to the low power consumption
of the LSI circuit, you can enjoy up to 122 hours of
continuous playback – 2.5 times as much as on a conventional model.
And when it comes to recording, the IM-DR580H keeps going for
a tireless 40 hours.
Time to start planning your next MD marathon.

With ATRAC3-encoded MDLP recording,
you can record up to 320 minutes* onto a single MD. Say goodbye to
that big stack of MDs. All your favourite tracks can be recorded on
a single disc. Now music storage can be as compact as the player
itself.

| The lifelike fidelity of 1-bit has been taking the
audiophile world by storm. And now it's available on a smaller scale, so you can take it with you
anywhere. Get ready, then, for a pleasant surprise. The IM-DR580H's compact 1-bit amplifier will
bring stunning new levels of realism to your portable music world. |
|
 |
| SHARP's newly-developed LSI circuit anticipates and
compensates for potential signal distortion. It reduces distortion almost as effectively as a full-sized
1-bit amplifier. The result of all this is sound much cleaner than you would expect on a portable MD
player. |

| Conventional portable MD players employ
half-bridge outputs. The IM-DR580H, however, uses a full-bridge output to more fully separate the +
(plus) and – (minus) signals. Signal noise and distortion are cancelled out, yielding an extremely
pure signal stream. |

| SHARP's engineers thought of everything, even the
earphone plug. The IM-DR580H's premium-quality 4-pole plug clearly separates the left and right
channels. In tandem with the full-bridge output, the 4-pole plug guarantees exceptionally clear sound. |
