Using other functions
To maximize the skip protection
performance (ESP MAX)
The typical ESP (Electronic Shock Protection)
function minimizes skipping by using a
buffer memory that stores music data and
plays it back in the event of a shock.
The ESP MAX system is an extremely
sophisticated technology. Due to the light
weight and improved anti-shock
characteristics of the optical block, this system
recovers from the skipping much quicker
than conventional technology such as ESP or
ESP 2 .*
MENU
* Although ESP MAX provides excellent
protection, skipping may occasionally occur.
