* Auch Toshiba ist vom Hochformat auf die Schublade umgestiegen. Das Ergebnis ist ein schnuckeliger Flachmann mit edlem Silber-Flair. Die am häufigsten benutzten Tasten „Play" und „Pause" sind besonders groß und enthalten eine integrierte Leuchtrückmeldung.

* 16 Titel haben im Programmspeicher des XR-Z70 Platz, auch Untertitel können gezielt angefahren oder programmiert werden. Die Anzahl der gespeicherten Stücke wird durch das Aufleuchten der entsprechenden Speicherplatznummern dargestellt.

Well thought-out display and operation

If, for example, you want to program the first of the 16 available memories, a "1" appears with an arrow flashing above it after pressing the corresponding buttons. You can now search for "your" piece of music or enter the title number directly, whereupon a "2" with a flashing arrow appears. The display also shows playing times (single, total and remaining times), various functions of the pressed shortstroke keys and the title number. The design of the luminous displays is very easy on the eyes, the green, slim digits are easy to recognize in any light, which is also due to the staggered arrangement. However, this has the disadvantage on the X-2 that you can't see the display of the "Auto Pause" function from an angle above.
  
* Selbstverständlich kann man beim schnellen Vor- oder Rücklauf mithören, sogar über eine eingebaute Kopfhörerbuchse mit Pegelsteller. Der Schnelllauf könnte allerdings etwas rascher über die Platte fahren. Immerhin gibt's für die großen Schritte den Titelsprung („Skip"). „Auto Pause" lässt den Laser nach dem Ende eines Stücks in seiner Position verharren. „Repeat" bietet Endloswiedergabe der Platte oder des Programms.

* "Auto Pause" has nothing to do with an overheated radiator, rather the player goes into waiting position after finishing the current piece of music. The skip functions are also not missing and bring the Uher rich plus points, because the jump to the next or previous track takes on average only 1.4 s, an extremely short time. The fast forward and rewind was designed in two stages, which also allows listening.
  
* Ein Infrarotempfänger für die Fernsteuerung ist serienmäßig im XR-Z70 eingebaut, die Gebereinheit gehört ebenfalls zum Lieferumfang. Mit Oversampling arbeitet der Toshiba-Player nicht, der Amplituden-Frequenzgang verläuft aber trotz des steilflankigen Filters wünschenswert glatt. Der Schrieb lässt lediglich eine kleine Pegeldifferenz zwischen linkem und rechtem Kanal erkennen. Das Ruherauschen dürfte noch etwas mehr Sicherheitsabstand zum kleinstmöglichen Signalpegel haben. In der Praxis stört jedoch meist eher das mechanische Laufgeräusch als das Restrauschen aus dem Lautsprecher. Und in dieser Disziplin gehört der Toshiba-Player zu den Leisen.

Nur kräftige Fehler in der Informationsspur lassen ihn „aus der Rille" springen, von Oberflächenschäden nimmt er bis zu 800 Mikrometern Länge keine Notiz. Unseren Kopfschlitten-Test bestand er ohne Aussetzer, nur bei kräftigen Pendelstößen musste er passen.

  • Elegantly it sets itself in scene, the black Uher player with smoked glass. It is also flat, the motor-driven drawer, which makes the CD gently disappear into its invisible interior, makes it possible.
  • There are certainly no problems with insertion. This also applies to the operation, because although a lot is offered in this respect, the well thought-out display contributes to the fact that especially the programming of the individual music flow does not become confusing.

Well thought-out display and operation If, for example, you want to program the first of the 16 available memories, a "1" appears with an arrow flashing above it after pressing the corresponding buttons. You can now search for "your" piece of music or enter the title number directly, whereupon a "2" with a flashing arrow appears. The display also shows playing times (single, total and remaining times), various functions of the pressed shortstroke keys and the title number. The design of the luminous displays is very easy on the eyes, the green, slim digits are easy to recognize in any light, which is also due to the staggered arrangement. However, this has the disadvantage on the X-2 that you can't see the display of the "Auto Pause" function from an angle above.

  • "Auto Pause" has nothing to do with an overheated radiator, rather the player goes into waiting position after finishing the current piece of music. The skip functions are also not missing and bring the Uher rich plus points, because the jump to the next or previous track takes on average only 1.4 s, an extremely short time. The fast forward and rewind was designed in two stages, which also allows listening.
  • The device has a headphone jack with volume control, and the voltage is sufficient to realize even higher levels, which is rather the exception. Good is also the build quality; it imprints a very satisfactory image.
  • Much less can be said about the measured values, i.e. the reproduction quality. The transmission characteristics are "only" top class, but this seems to be almost academic in this device class, the interference immunity, however, brought the Uher full marks, and that is not self-evident!
  • All in all, a very pleasing device with good ease of use, solid manufacturing quality and technical features that - in a positive sense - are not worth mentioning.
