While personal MD players offer convenience and portability, they typically sacrifice sound quality to do so. Not any more. The IM-DR420H/410H/400E 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-DR420H/410H/400E 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. 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. *On an 80-minute MD in LP4 mode.

			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-DR420H/410H/400E'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.             Distortion vs Volume Level Distortion vs Frequency             Conventional portable MD players employ half-bridge outputs. The IM-DR420H/410H/400E, 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.   Noise Reduction Process           SHARP's engineers thought of everything, even the earphone plug. The IM-DR420H/410H/400E'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.             3-Pole Earphone Plug 4-Pole Earphone Plug
