and song title information when available on music file COs.
Note: The audio quality of MP3 COs is dependent on factors such
as the encoded bit rate, the sampling rate, and the type
of encoder used. The Wave® SoundTouch'" music system
supports MP3 COs encoded at bit rates of 64kbps or higher,
and sampling rates of 32kHz or higher. It is recommended
that a bit rate of at least 128kbps and a sampling rate of
44.1 kHz or better be used.
Note: Playback quality of recorded CD-R and CD-RW discs is
dependent on the CD recording process and software used
to record the disc. An improperly recorded audio CD may
cause the system to exhibit unexpected behavior.
