 Nice sound, bad buttons August 15, 2007

The first guy wasn't fooling when he said that the sound on this thing is great. I was skeptical, but Beethoven's 9th sounded better on it than it did on my JVC stereo.
The eject button is the worst. It's relatively easy to switch, but almost impossible to do without holding down the top. I still haven't figured out an easy way to do it. The other buttons are easy to push, but hard to read. They are dark purple (some might call it blue) with impressions, but the impressions are very faint.
Also, it does a weird thing with spinning the CD. It looks like it stops spinning the CD periodically, and then starts up again. I guess it must read 60 seconds worth of data and then halt the CD while playing back. It doesn't affect the sound at all, though. I only noticed it because I was looking at it while listening and writing this review.
 A whole lot of sound for very little money May 27, 2006

I have to disagree with the reviewer who gave this machine a 1 - geeze...what do you want for -$20.00? I think the headphones supplied are... ummmmmmm well to be blunt - they suck! I have other headphones so I use those with the player. I think the volume resetting to zero at the shut-off is a safety feature for people - prevents them from blowing his/her head off when powering up to listen at a later time. I do have an MP3 player (128 MB) and I love it, but I wanted more capability in a player and did not want to spend the moola for more flash memory. I get 700 MB of music on a cdr good deal for me. The feature set on this player is quite good for my needs - POP, Rock, Surround or vanilla! Sure, I'd love to be able to set all the bands - but again it's a $20.00 machine! The batteries last 20 hrs (I have not verified this yet - this is according to RCA). I know there are better machines available, but they cost more too. I am very satisfied with my purchase. RCA backs this player with a ONE Year warranty! Geeze, my Mp3 player only gave me 90 days! I challenge anyone to find a better player for $20.00! I sincerely believe this is as good as it gets for that kind of money. I give it a 5 because I am impressed with this machine. Give it a listen - I think you'll agree - it's a stone cold bargain!
 Annoying! November 17, 2005

The most annoying thing is the volume -- it comes on at the same volume, regardless of the volume you were listening at the last time you used it. You then need to adjust it each time. And even more annoying, the volume up and down are two separate, and hard to find buttons, which make it louder or quieter in preset increments. It gives you very little control, and even the lowest volume is quite loud, so I can't get it as quiet as I want it.
Really poorly designed. Don't buy it.
