Philips AZ7483 Personal CD Player

I bought my Phillips in response to my two other Sony cd players poopin' out on me. This thing may as well be made out of titanium! I've dropped it soooo many times and with enough frequency that it should have failed me within the first month. It didn't... and the reliability is liken to that of a Chevy truck, the components never stall. My favorite aspect of my Cd player is that it plays even the most scratched cd's. Could I have just lucked out? Perhaps, but if you get a Phillips, such as this one, and it only performs half as well as mine does, then you will have felt that you've spent your money wisely!!! On a scale of 1-10, it's by far an 11!
