The JENSEN CD-545 is a portable AM/FM stereo CD cassette recorder designed for versatile audio playback and recording. This all-in-one unit combines a CD player, an AM/FM radio, and a cassette recorder, offering multiple options for enjoying music and audio content. Its portable design, complete with a carry handle, makes it easy to transport and use in various settings, whether at home, outdoors, or on the go.
The CD-545 features a top-loading CD player that supports both commercial audio CDs and self-compiled CD-R/RW discs. The CD player includes essential functions such as play/pause, stop, skip/search forward and backward, program play, and repeat play (single track or entire CD). The LED display provides visual feedback on the current track number, program number, and repeat status. The program play function allows users to create a customized sequence of up to 20 tracks, offering a personalized listening experience.
The integrated AM/FM stereo radio provides access to a wide range of broadcast stations. Users can select between AM and FM bands using the band selector and fine-tune stations with the tuning knob. A telescopic antenna is provided for optimal FM reception, and an internal antenna handles AM reception. The unit also includes an FM stereo indicator, which lights up when a stereo program is received, enhancing the audio quality.
For cassette enthusiasts, the CD-545 includes a cassette compartment for playing and recording cassette tapes. Standard cassette functions such as play, stop/eject, fast forward, rewind, and pause are available. The recording function allows users to record audio from the radio, CD player, or an external source connected via the AUX IN jack directly onto a cassette tape. An automatic stop system protects cassette tapes and the mechanism by releasing the play button when the tape ends.
The unit also features an AUX IN jack, enabling users to connect external audio sources such as MP3 players or other digital audio devices. This expands the playback options, allowing users to enjoy music from their portable devices through the CD-545's built-in speakers. For private listening, a stereo phones jack is provided, which automatically disconnects the built-in speakers when headphones are plugged in.
Audio output is delivered through two built-in speakers, one on the left and one on the right, providing stereo sound. A volume control knob allows for easy adjustment of the listening level. Additionally, a bass boost button is included to enhance the low-frequency response, providing a richer and more impactful sound experience.
The CD-545 can be powered by either AC power (using the included power cord) or eight "D" size (UM-1) batteries, offering flexibility for both indoor and outdoor use. When operating on AC power, the internal battery source is automatically disconnected.
