DON'T BUY THIS!!!!!!

Rating: 2/5

i originally wanted the sony psyc cd player, but i browsed around, saw this had mp3 capabilities, and bought this instead. i took it home, and before i opened it, i looked at the review on here. almost all of them said that the headphones suck, so i opened it and thought i would give them a try...TRUST ME, THEY SUCK!!! do not buy this unless you are looking more for features rather than sound quality - i ended up taking mine back b/c the sound sucked so much! i also got the sony psyc cd player - muuuccchhhh better!

not enough drawbacks to not recommend to anyone

Rating: 4/5

i'll keep the review short and to the point:

the construction of the player is quite sturdy, although i suppose if you tried hard enough you could break it. the buttons are nice and easy to get to, and feel like they could take a lot of pushing before going out. the display is very well thought out, but we'll get to that in a sec. the skip protection works amazingly well...i had to drop the player to get the CD to skip (not recommended :)), and i couldn't get the mp3 to skip at all. over all, a very good player.

now with the bad stuff:
no seperate line out and headphone jack (i don't care because i never used the line out anyway). the display isn't backlit, but then again, it only cost [$$]. the stock headphones might be good for some people (the sound quality isn't too bad), but the design of them hurt my ears. the CD player part is very very sensitive to scratches, or maybe it was Audio CD-R. i'm not sure. probably both. the last bad thing is it has some line noise at low volumes.

while, no, it's not an ipod, and you shouldn't expect it to be, it is very worth the money for anyone looking for a CD-mp3 player. definite recommend buy.

Somewhere between heaven and hell

I bought this cd player to replace my broken philips cd player because i broke the screen. At first the rca was good until i was using for 5 hours straight and the batteries died.My philips lasted at least 10 hours.The other reason i dont like it because any slight touch of the slide it pops right open. Last I hate the color. Other than those reasons the anti-skip is good,mp3 cds load fast, no promblems so far.
