IC: Creative Nomad Jukebox 3 20Gb

post #1 of 3
Thread Starter 
Hi everyone, I'm considering selling my Creative Nomad Jukebox 3, 20Gb, which I got from damitamit about a year ago. I've moved onto iTunes and am ripping everything in Apple Lossless, which this player doesn't support. If you're reading this, then you probably know how good a source the NJB3 is, through its two lineouts, or even through its headphone out, which happily powers all of the headphones I've tried with it. It also is a fantastic recording device, possessing a line in and optical digital in, and I've made some great recordings using just this player and a simple mic (+/- preamp). It'll record at 48Khz too. The NJB3 will play wavs, mp3s and wma files. In addition, and this is the good part, it'll take two batteries, both of which are supplied, allowing you to use it non-stop for up to 22 hours! Try getting that on an iPod... I've had this on flights from the UK to Australia and back, and it doesn't even get down to 1/3 full! Crazy. Anyway. The player is working well, except for an occasional crackliness when you wiggle the headphone jack. This is a known problem with the NJB3 and I've fixed it as described here
The power button is a little sticky, and the case is a bit scuffed (hey, it's been around Australia!). If anyone wants pictures, I'll take some. As well as the player and two batteries, I'll include the charger and UK mains lead, firewire and USB cables, and a driver disc, including Notmad Explorer, which is much better than the original software.

I'm asking about £75, or I would consider swapping it for a 10Gb Ipod, +/- money, or whatever else you crazy people can come up with! It's in the UK, so postage will be at cost. I've got 100% feedback (237 transactions) on eBay (andrewcupples)
