I bought this player for my car, and that's exactly where it's best suited. The functions are great on it; the bass boost gives a noticable difference in sound, the play modes are great, and it has a play resume function (if you stop playing a cd, when you push play again later, it starts exactly where you left off). It is a very solid player, but the headphones that are included are a cheap rip off of the Sony headphones that go behind your head. These headphones don't fit right on your head, so the ear pieces tend to fall and get uncomfortable, and the band that goes behind your head gets in the way. I can't imagine they would work at all well if you plan to jog while listening to music. Plus, since the earpieces aren't sufficiently pressed against your ears, the sound doesn't sound as good as it could with a better pair of headphones. If you're buying this player for your car, it's a great buy. But if you're looking for a good pair of headphones along with a player, i advise you to look around for a better pair.

I bought this cd player and the first copy was broken, after I sent it back and fixed that little mess it works great. The sound quality is good, the antiskip time is excelent. The earphones are X-phones which I hate and make the volume WAY to loud. Otherwise a pretty decent product.

The CD player is great and it has yet to skip, but my major complaint are the headphones. They are so small that I dont see how any male could wear these. They are the perfect size for my 2 year old. Other than that, it is a great buy.

I was very disappointed by the performance of this product. I have used it twice, both with poor results, and it is now being returned. I had difficulty with it playing a few songs, shutting itself off, and refusing to play again without a lot of coaxing. Once I get it started again it will do the same thing. I found it was also tempermental about forwarding to the next song, and on the first time out it was skipping by song #3. It's too bad, because when did work, it seemed like a nice player.
