a fairly good discman

byJJmock Mar 17, 2000
19 Helpfuls 20 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros cheap, 10 second electronic shock protection, good bass, protects cd under most conditions
Cons skips and turns off with new batteries after a few months of use, not the best model out...
Recommended it? No

This is a cheap discman that has many great qualities. It has a heat resistant lid, 10 seconds of electronic shock protection, and a good digital mega bass. However, the newer models today, which cost a little more, tend to sound better, last longer, look better, and have 40 seconds of electronic... Read full review »

Pros Everything about it
Cons None
Recommended it? Yes

I purchased this player about two years ago. Its an overall great player. Its 10 second electronic shock protection is great and really helps if you have to run to catch up with someone, or something else of that sort. The head phones that come with these are also incredible. I have bought several... Read full review »

Recommended it? Yes

After being in the market for a nice, affordable portable CD player for my girlfriend (mainly to listen to while flying) I finally purchased a Sony D-E301. We're very pleased with the player.

The D-E301 features a 10 second memory, Electronic Shock Protection (for those times when you're... Read full review »

Pros good price, nice sound, ESP skip protection
Cons not too many features
Recommended it? Yes

I got this CD player as a gift for my birthday last year, and have been happily impressed with it ever since. My last portable CD player, a Kenwood from '93 skipped way too much and seemed like it was playing music backwards.

With ESP (Electronic shock protection), this Discman offers 10... Read full review »

Tough and Durable???

byBeachBum06787 Jul 17, 2000
10 Helpfuls 11 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Very lightweight
Cons not very scratch resistant
Recommended it? Yes

I was given the Sony Discman ESP D-E301 on the Christmas of '97. I have been satisfied up until a couple months ago when it started skipping even though it has ESP. Also it became very scratched and the appearance has slowly started to deteoriorate more and more. I don't know if it's because I have... Read full review »

Pros Great sound quality
Cons none
Recommended it? Yes

This is a great product to buy if you are looking for a durable none skipping discman. I have had this product for more than 3 years and it has not skipped once thanks to the ESP. Also it has fallen over many times and has just overall been pounded around and it has still failed to crack or effect... Read full review »

Pros Good ESP performance
Cons Playback stops unexpectedly after repeated uses
Recommended it? No

I bought this CD player from Best Buy in early 1998 because I needed a CD player that I could use while bicycling. But it didn't quite live up to my expectations. Here are the good, the bad and the ugly of this model:

When this CD player was working, it doesn't skip even while... Read full review »

Pros ESP, Durability
Cons none
Recommended it? Yes

I received this fine product as a Christmas gift from my father about two years ago. It was wonderful, it overall had a good sound quality, rarely skipped and is about the only cd player that has been in my hands to last over a year. Which means that for everyone else, it'll probably never... Read full review »

Pros affordable and great quality
Cons none

We bought my son this cd player for Christmas. First of all, let me start off by saying that we didn't spend $100 on it. We got in on sale at the Wiz for About $59.00, and it was well worth the money, My son absolutely loves the quality and sound of it. I recently started using this while using the...
