The player has a "Quick Charge" function that will allow for 11 hours of playback time (when in LP4 mode) with 20 minutes of recharging. When the quick charging is complete, you'll be able to see this reflect o­n the unit's LEDs and the remote control's LCD. Using the included "BN-R129" battery in conjunction with standard dry cells will give a continous playback time of 250 hours.

It also has a full digital amp and 24bit DSP. "ENERGY," "CRYSTAL," "SUBWAY," and "HEARTFUL" audio modes are available."
