After I took it back I bought a Panasonic Shockwave and purchased a set... Read full review »

Pros 40 sec anti-skip, come with free car adapter coupon
Cons A little expansive
Recommended it? No

Panasonic is the leader in futuristic electronics. The Panasonic Shockwave CD Player represents the future standard for portable digital audio. The unit has excellent anti-skip technology. The 40 second anti-skip buffer is more than enough to absorb any pounding you can give it. I used mine on the... Read full review »

After a number of quiet workouts at the gym, I decided that I finally needed to add a little music to my life.
