What do you want when you buy a cd player? Great sound quality,an anti-shock system, a great design, etc. And this cd player has allthat you want. I bought one three months ago, and I think that this discman is a great choice for people who wants to use it all days, to bring to school, to listen in the car, or even to use it at home. The battery life is very good, and the price is amazing. A great discman with a great price. And remember, the quality is what metters not the price...With portable CD players you basically get what you paid for.

This Cd player is awesome.The sleek design not to mention extra light weight makes it really easy to carry around everywhere you go! The headphones aren't the best in comfort but they are pretty decent. The sound however is fantastic and with the bass boost on it really provides great quality sound. With the 45 second antishock it's time to say goodbye to all those annoying skips.As if that wasn't good enough it even comes with an AM/FM tuner so you can listen to the radio in case you get sick of listening to CD's. Oh yeah the best thing is the price! I've seen similar products in stores that cost like $130! So if you're looking for a cheap CD player with great sound and an AM/FM tuner I suggest you go and get this A.S.A.P!

I am soooo glad I bought this CD player instead of the over priced Sony or Panasonic! In fact I am listening to it right now and I use it everyday at the gym. Anybody that would give this wonderful piece of technology a bad review obviously does not know their electronics very well! The biggest surprise for me was that it actually has 25 preset stations. The ad said only 4 but they must have upgraded this model. The anti-skip is just amazing because you can literally throw it down and it will still play fine with no skips. It is very lightweight and the ultra-slim design lets you take it anywhere, even in your pocket. I am a big RCA fan since I own many of their products including my TV and they all have been awesome. "BUY IT"

I got this CD player for my birthday. It's a great CD player, extremely durable. It has very good radio reception, and a very good anti-skip. I took it on a vacation and I dropped it from about 5 feet on accident. The CD player broke into two pieces and the CD went across the floor. It took me about ten minutes to put it back together but still worked fine because the way they electronics are connected you have to cut it to break it. I lost mine in a taxi and I'm going to buy the same one again, I would recommend it to anyone and everyone, its definitly worth the price!

Not only is RCA one of the best companies to buy from but this product really shows it! With an Fm tuner(hard to find on portables) and a 45 second anti-skip, I'm surprised it hasn't sold out yet. I don't know about you but I think I'm gonna buy another one as a gift. One particular reason I love this is because of the low price. How many times daily do you see somethin like this for only 80 bucks? Not very often. I take the bus a lot and this is perfect for those times you get forced to sit in the back where the bus does nothing but go up and down for hours and it makes your player skip every 5 seconds, well this one has no problem with that as it can store 45 seconds of the song. This is a necessity for everyone and I suggest you buy this item asap.

This CD player is very nice. It is ultra thin, only 1 inch think, and very lightweight, compared to my Sony Discman that I bought in 1997. It is very easy to use, all the buttons are pretty straight-forward. The display and all the buttons (except hold and open) are on the top, making it very easy to see everything. The anti-shock is amazing; 45 seconds long, which is currently the best on the market. I was listening to a CD, and decided to put another one in, and when I opened the player without pressing stop, it kept playing for 45 seconds! It actually stores all the information in the player. The radio is also a very nice feature. It has 25 preset stations, although the reception doesn't come in that great, but that's probably because of where I live. The supplied headphones are OK, but not great. I would rather have the behind-the-head ones, but these are sufficient. I am probably going to buy new headphones. The volume is incredibly loud with the supplied headphones; the volume scale is from 0-10, and on a 2 its very loud. This CD player is definitely one of the best you can buy for this price. It has bass boost and surround sound. The contents of the package are the CD player, headphones, 2 Duracell Ultra AAA batteries, an AC adapter, and a manual. This player is definitely great, and you should buy it if you want a great buy!

Actually, I bought the RP2376 model, but it is pretty much the same.

The player is really nice and has a good design. There arent a whole lot of features, but it does offer what you need including programability, 45 second anti-skip, bass boot/surround sound, shuffle, repeat and your normal play, pause, stop, eject functions.

The surround sound feature sounds nothing like surround sound in part from the stock headphones. These headphones have little to no treble, so it sounds like your listening to an old 1930's AM radio.

If your looking to listen to some music and need a relatively inexpensive cd player, you found the one.

I've had mine for about two years, and I've seen my fair share of problems with it. First of all, the hold switch never worked. I would put it on and the cd player would start playing in my bag. Sometimes when you press the foward button to go to the next track, the esp goes off. And sometimes I press the buttons, and nothing happens. It eats up batteries like crazy. I'll be going on a four hour car trip, and before the ride is done, I need to switch batteries. Also the headphones are made very poorly, and the spring holding the top on fell out recently, so I have to hold the top on with a rubberband. The good things about this player are the sound and esp. The bass boost sounds really good and when the esp has been on, I haven't had a skip. Overall I'd say that you should probably buy a different player, because this is an okay one but it is not worth the price.

This is the best Discman ive boughten ever. It never skips unless u throw it on the floor repeededly for about a minute. The headphone are nice, but i never keep headphones that come with the player. the Radio is a very nive feature. I hope this made your mind up.

BUY IT, IT IS THE BEST FOR THIS COST!!
