3.0 out of 5 stars Skips while jogging, November 15, 1999

Although this Discman purports to be "skip free", it did indeed skip quite a bit on me while it was sitting on the console of the treadmill I was jogging on. If you're just walking, it's fine, and the sound quality is very good.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent but not perfect, December 15, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Sony DE409CK Discman Portable CD Player (Electronics)

The groove headphones are so effective your don't even need to us the groove sound preset, the mega bass preset actually sounds better(groove actually supplies too much bass! ).Sound quality is better than on any other portable cd player I have ever heard. ESP2 is a huge improvement on esp1. But like its explained in the manual, skipping does occur when running or doing any other mad activity. So it dosn't skip when you walk? Actualy it does but very rarely.
