Q It takes a long time to load a CD.

A

Using Multi-sessioned or Packet Written CD may affect the loading time rather

than using Single sessioned CD because the data is scattered in the CD.

 

To reduce the loading time, it is recommended you to burn in Single-session.

 

You may contact Customer Service if it takes longer than 1 minute to load a

 

single-sessioned CD or a Standard Audio CD.

Q It always stops after playing one song.

A

Check that the "Auto Pause" feature is turned off.

Also check that your player is not set to “SFL 1”mode.

Q I hear a 'hiccup' sound while the song is playing.

A1 Check the status of the file. What is likely happening is that the file is corrupted, especially if you hear the same sound in the same spot. In this case, the music file is maybe corrupted.

A2 Check whether the sampling frequency and bitrate of the music file is too high or low. iMP-900 supports from 8KHz, 8Kbps to 44.1KHz, 320Kbps. (In case of 48KHz, supports up to 256Kbps.)

Q Can I change the playing order?

A

The iMP-900 supports m3u file lists. Also, the Program function allows you to

select your preferred songs.

Q

Is the sound better if I convert an MP3 file into WAV?

A

MP3 is a compressed a audio format. Audio quality is lost when converting

 

sound into MP3 format. Changing MP3 to WAV files will not restore data lost in

 

compression and will therefore not improve audio quality.
