As good as cd players get.....

14 Helpfuls 15 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros price, look, anit-skipping, and great sound
Cons there are better choices now than cd players!
Recommended it? Yes

Read the title. That basically sums this up. I have owned this cd player for two years now (I bought it for $99.99) and it has never once failed on me. Even without the 20 second esp on, it hardly skips unless you decide to see how your cd player will handle a 10 foot drop. The look is very... Read full review »

Cons Door switch goes flakey right after warranty expires
Recommended it? Yes

Not a bad product, as long as you own a soldering iron =-)

Being a student,I use my Discman heavilly, at least 3-4 hrs a day while travelling on the bus, during my block off, etc. It definately puts stress on a player! My old D-121 (about 1992 or so) has been work out to the point that the... Read full review »

Pros Good Sound/Looks
Cons WEAK AND FRAGILE
Recommended it? No

This CD player is a fragile, weak, cheap ESP piece of junk! In the second week of ownership this player broke. It broke FALLING ONTO A CARPET! That is weak, I have owned many other portable players as being weak and flimsy. There are good features to this fragile player. First, the looks. The... Read full review »

Pros Rarely skips,sounds good,sturdy enough,Groove
Cons Longer batter life would be nice,not one you can jog with
Recommended it? Yes

This is a great Discman. I have had it 2 years, with few gripes. It uses ESP2 technology so that it has over 20 seconds of buffering memory. This increases the ability to prevent skipping. It works well.

This is a CD player that can go through the bumpiest of car rides without skipping... Read full review »

Recommended it? Yes

This is a really good portable cd player. It has been discontinued for a while now, but you can sometimes find them used on Ebay.
