DESCRIPTION

Kenwood's DPC-692 looks like a cross between a pair of Nike sneakers and a particularly sporty UFO. Because any CD player can technically function in a car, the term "car kit" can be misleading. The 692's kit includes a cassette adapter and a cigarette lighter plug to power the unit. You can also use the cassette adapter in some boomboxes.In addition to the standard transport functions, this player's random mode features track lockout. This handy feature ensures that the entire CD will be played before any song is repeated. One other unique feature is a pair of two-battery bays, which can hold up to four AA cells for extended playback.
