Best sound quality/durability of any portable I've owned
Rating: 5/5
The Nike Sport ACT300 is built by Philips for Nike. I've found this a pretty tough and excellent sounding portable. So tough I brought it to Iraq with me and used it throughout my year-long stay there.
Drawbacks? There are a few. The battery life is terrible and the lack of AM/FM is something that I wish would be remedied. The absolute worst drawback is the difficulty in placing and extracting the AA batteries. Terrible, especially considering the thought put into the rest of the design.
On the positive side sound quality is excellent for a portable cd player, the anti-skip works well and it gives the user several options such as repeat and shuffle. The Nike's build quality is also of a much higher standard then even most "sports walkman" players.
I highly recommend the Nike ATC300.
A better option than the Act400
Rating: 3/5
Smaller and less noisy than the Act400. I managed to trade my Act400 for this for the weekend to try out, and found it much better for sporting activity.
Great - but a few setbacks
Rating: 4/5
B"H
ok - listen up - this piece it great - it is really small and the sound is perfect it also has amazing antiskip.
pros: small size anti skip remote id3 tag case
cons: (this is the setbacks) battery life STINKS!!!!!!! the LCD is not backlit remote doesn't have id3 tag the price
basically this is a great piece - if you care about the size.
i suggest you get the gamecube CD carrying case - it is a perfect match.
