General information

Welcome!

Thank you for buying this Philips Compact Disc Recorder.

In the 1980s Philips invented a new audio system - the CD. The CD (compact disc) revealed the new dimensions of digital sound and added to the pleasure of audio.

Compact-disc technology permits a high contrast in both loud and soft passages, with perfect channel separation.

Philips has now further developed compact disc technology and the result is the CD recorder.

With your Philips CD Recordable/ReWritable Recorder, you can record, play and erase your own high-quality audio CDs, subject to legal restrictions on copying. Naturally, you will also be able to play all pre-recorded audio CDs.
