Finally got a portable cd player with a radio

bymixer107 Sep 9, 2000
57 Helpfuls 58 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Tuner, great quality
Cons No back-light
Recommended it? Yes

I never purchased a portable CD player in the past because I thought they did not have radio tuners. When I did a little more research I found that there were portable cd players with tuners. They just happened to be a little on the expensive side. I chose the Sony D-F411 because it was only one of... Read full review »

CD/AM/FM How could you go wrong

Pros AM/FM radio and good sound
Cons ESP doesn't work with some CD-R's
Recommended it? Yes

I got this player for Christmas and it the best CD player I ever got. How could you go wrong with a CD player with AM/FM radio built in to it? I have had a lot of time where I got tired of the CD I was listening to and had no other CD to play. But with this player you have an AM/FM radio.

Sony Discman D-F411: How did I get along without it?!

Pros Digital tuner, 5 six-station preset modes (4 FM and 1 AM) for a total of 30 possible...
Cons ESP2 wears down the batteries, and the radio reception isn't always top-notch
Recommended it? Yes

For years, I had your basic Discman - 10 second skip protection, car kit, and digital bass boost. I recently got my new D-F411 Discman with its Electronic Skip Protection (ESP2) and digital radio tuner, and I'll never understand how I got along without it!

Since I make use of a ride-share... Read full review »

Pros Clear, smooth music, and fast
Cons expensive
Recommended it? Yes

When I got my CD player I was so excited I ripped it open and tried out a CD. I put the
CD player on the setting GROOVE and listened to the music. It was clear, smooth, and
couldn?t sound better. The music came easily and sounded closer than most CD players
make it sound. I didn?t have... Read full review »

Portable CD redefined

12 Helpfuls 13 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Portable, AM/FM tuner, Mega Bass"Groove"
Cons no remote, cheap charity headphones
Recommended it? Yes

The Sony D-F411 is the coolest CD player I've ever seen. It's the first and few out there that have a DIGITAL radio tuner built in. Like many of Sonys products it has a lot of features that are native to Sony audio equipment.

Did I mention it has the AM/FM tuner? Finally someone decided... Read full review »

Pros Great Bass, Has an AM/FM Tuner, Great Anti-Skip
Cons A little on the heavy side, Buttons take some getting used to.
Recommended it? Yes

I've had my Sony F-411 for about 5 months now and I think it's great. I bought it at Fred Myer's for I think about $100. I first chose this product out of the other ones first off because of the looks and how that compared to the price. :) I know thats not the best thing to do but it didn't hurt me...

Expert Review: AM/FM Discman

8 Helpfuls 9 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros RADIO!
Cons It's large, and includes no special features (except for the radio).
Recommended it? Yes

When I was searching for a Discman, I was bothered by the lack of a radio on every portable CD player I looked at many different brands, but I couldn't find one I liked. One day, I happened to walk into Circuit City, and I noticed the D-F411 sitting there with the other CD players. I had to have... Read full review »

Discman with a Radio

Pros Good sound, good value. Good reliability.
Cons Looks cheap with metallic finish, no included rechargeable battery.
Recommended it? Yes

As someone who has used Walkmans which are radio only or radio/cassette one of the things that had disappointed me is the relative lack of availability of CD/radio personals. The best range comes from Sony and this player (which retails for around $100) seems very good.

On the positive... Read full review »

For Christmas, I wanted a new portable CD player because my one I got in 1995 didn't cut it anymore. I recieved the Sony DF411 from my parents and I saw on the package it said it recieved the radio. Right from the start, I knew this would be a good player. I opened it up, tested it out, and it... Read full review »

Pros Great features.
Cons Mine had a defect.
Recommended it? Yes

I bought this product about a year ago. I was looking for a CD player with a built-in radio, and this was the best-priced item I found. I bought it for about $150, but that was a year ago, so now it sells for $100.

I always look at features when I buy electronics, so that's the reason I... Read full review »
