・PMD-R2

074   |   Pioneer   |   '97

換湯換殼不換藥

主打追求便利易用性的PMD-R2，採用Slot in機構，有別於一般貝殼機構繁瑣的機蓋開開關關，僅需One Touch以水平向滑順快速地入 / 出光碟。不過Slot In需要較多的空間占比機身也較厚重些。

搭配Slot In採用橫向設計，大占比的留白與按鍵鋪陳更為素雅，整體依然是Kenwood特有的高辨識度異色風格。長型的液晶螢幕曲名、REC Level、電量、光碟一目了解，並支援英、數、片假名最大10文字顯示。頗可惜是並未隨著主機一新僅配備了無螢幕的線控操作。

配備液晶線控有著與整體不符比例的小巧螢幕，可顯示英/數/片假名，並採分離式3.5mm耳機接頭，完整支援所有品牌耳機更換使用。

充電池擁有REC 7 / Play 9.5的極長效也是年度最強的續航力，但對MD來說不可或缺的外接電池盒可能為選購品。

不過卻擁有業界獨家特色的一年損害竊盜保險，獨特的規劃看得出Pioneer用心在同質競品中做出差異化~

只是整體來說與'96年PMD-R1高度雷同形色有限的總體規劃，是台多了些老氣少了些新意的換殼機型。

Old Wine in New Bottle

The PMD-R2, designed for convenience and ease of use, features a Slot in mechanism that differs from typical clamshell designs with its smooth horizontal insertion and ejection of discs using just One Touch. However, Slot In requires more space, resulting in a bulkier build.

With its Slot In design, the device adopts a horizontal layout with significant white space and elegantly arranged buttons, maintaining Kenwood's distinctive and highly recognizable style. Its elongated LCD screen provides clear information such as track names, REC Level, battery status, and disc details, supporting up to 10 characters in English, numerals, and katakana. It's disappointing that it only comes equipped with screenless line controls, not updated alongside the main unit.

Equipped with LCD line control featuring a compact screen that displays English/numerical/katakana characters, it also includes a detachable 3.5mm headphone jack, ensuring compatibility with all headphone brands.

Its battery offers exceptional endurance with REC 7 / Play 9.5hrs, making it one of the longest-lasting in its class. However, an external battery pack, essential for MD, may be an optional purchase.

Nevertheless, it features an exclusive one-year damage and theft insurance, showcasing Pioneer's efforts to differentiate itself in a competitive market.

Overall, similar to the last year overall design is somewhat conservative with limited innovation, offering a familiar yet slightly outdated redesign.
