A Better Choice than Any MP3 player~Heres why.
Pros
Slim(fits in some of my pockets),Car adapter,LONG 21-hour battery life, Good price compared to similar products.Plenty of Skip protection(40 sec)
Cons
Some people may be discouraged by the lack of digital optical link (to minidisc). There will be some subtle scratches on the cover during the course of usage.
Recommended it?
Yes
NOTE: This Review refers to the XP-V706C..The same Cd player, but supplied with a carkit~~)
Now, in midst of the wave of Minidiscs and portable MP3 players, my friends actually laughed at me when I told them I purchased a Cd player.
" A Cd player? How are you gonna log THAT around."
" You should have got a Minidisc or MP3. CDs? This isnt the 80's."
Despite the criticisms, despite seeing nothing but mp3s and minidiscs( this is a small private high school), I didn't regret my purchase. Why? Because I see the Aiwa XP-V70 as the perfect compromise between the smaller devices and the portable Cd player. Why? This little device fit in my pocket! That's right, it was that slim. I had it in my shorts pocket while playing tennis, and get this, it did not skip ONCE. I was impressed. As with the car kit..it worked just as well. Also, the battery life on this item is awesome. I kept the same batteries with extended usage over an entire month(It lasts approx. 21 hours..This outdoes most of the Mp3 players I know...longer battery life and a lower price). In conclusion, if you are still dedicated to listening to your CD collection, yet are apprehensive to log around a clunky portable CD player, the XP-V706c unit is for you. (My item is identical to the Xp-V70, except it has a car kit.)
NOTES: I have owned this item since mid-March.
The item is solid; however, it is prone to scratches thorough inevitable accidents. (i.e. dropping it)
PRICE: Lately, I have seen this item(XP-V706C) up for $70 at Circuit City and Best Buy. I found it and nabbed it off Ebay for $60.
This is a smart buy and a good deal. AIWA is high quality without the high price....
Thanks for reading my first epinion!
