5.0 out of 5 stars I use it for my workout, September 10, 2003
By ostawookiee "ostawookiee" (Winston-Salem, NC USA) - See all my reviews
  
I recently purchased one of these and so far really like it.
-The armband is wonderful. Spandex material with velcro means it hugs my arm tight without cutting off circulation. Plus it's small enough that it doesn't get in the way when I'm doing arm exercises.
-The 64MB holds enough for my 75-90 minute workout, especially if I use 96kb instead of 128kb encoding for the mp3s. I do plan to get an add-on 64 meg card just because I have a gift certificate to use up.
-The button locking feature is key. At first I forgot to lock it, and when I'd adjust the armband, I'd accidentally hit 'stop' or 'next'. With the buttons lock I set it playing and no problems.
-I didn't even bother with any of the software it came with. Straight out of the box I plugged it into Windows 2000, it recognized the 'USB drive' and I dragged and dropped a CD of mp3s over. Easy as that. No need for the Musicmatch.

However:
-The headphones it comes with are awkward. I purchased a $5 pair of ear-buds and that works great.
-The volume doesn't go quite high enough. I like it to blast so that I can't hear any outside noise. This only goes up to very loud, and not deafening loud.

5.0 out of 5 stars All a true HARD ROCKER could ask for!, September 2, 2003
I bought this mp3 player for three reasons. The price, the brand (RCA) and the portability. I hated space eating, annoying, hassling Cd-rs. I had a pile of them, Chris's favorites 1-89. I don't like all artists songs or one genre. I have a top 40 than i get sick of them and make a new cd-r of my new favorites. But with this i just delete and the just drag and drop. This little hand held unit has some BIG sound in volume and quality, all from a single aaa battery. It stores many songs. But the secret is to use windows media player to convert the songs kbs a lower rate. I have all my songs at 64kbs it takes about 1.8 of a mb per song. I can fit mabout 2 hours of music and dont even notice a change in quality. I love it and its well worth the money.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good buy.....but, September 22, 2003
By Mark Allen Rerick (Hillsboro, ND United States) - See all my reviews
The player itself works fantastically. It produces plenty of volume to keep away distractions during my workout and is small enough to stay out of the way.

Two problems:
1. I wasn't able to sync this Lyra with my computer. Granted, my machine runs on Windows ME...I had to take it to a buddy's computer to load music using his XP machine.

2. The earphones that come with the Lyra are [bad]. Like a previous reviewer, I use a pair of ear buds and they work just fine.

Overall, a good buy.
