Special Features

The device was one of the first devices on the market equipped with an ESP function. This "Electronic Shock Proof" was an internal short-time memory which should prevent music interruptions in case of shocks (e.g. when jogging). The model had a 3-second-memory, an extremely flat metal housing and was the most expensive portable CD player Grundig ever had in its program. It was also the last model of the StudioLine product line. The device is identical in construction with the portable CD player Sanyo CDP-7.

StudioLine was a high-end line of audio portables from Grundig. The devices were high-priced and rounded off the program upwards - StudioLine represented virtually the counterpart to FineArts Classic. These were so-called OEM products, which Grundig ordered from foreign manufacturers and offered in the period 1989-1993. Partially, the devices were available as identical counterparts from the actual manufacturer and were offered under the corresponding private brands. Mainly the devices were supplied by Matsushita (Panasonic, Technics) and Sanyo.
