I am in desperate need of a good cd player and set of phones for use while I'm working. I mostly work on or around loud machinery such as buldozers and tractors. I had an old lennox sound that died around christmas. I was fine until recently, when the everything started growing again and the bushogging started. Now I'd like to go ahead and by a decent/good cdp for work and just general carrying about. Here's what I need:
It can't be prone to skipping, that means even with the antiskip off.
It must have antiskip, preferably 20+ seconds
It must use AA's, or have an expansion for them, not much is worse than being in the middle of a field and having the batteries die without being able to replace them.
It needs to be durable and last a while on a set of batteries, I don't want to stop every hour to change out batts.
It needs to have good sound, and have a bit of power behind it.
As for phones, I was going to go with those koss clip on things (the name escapes me) but realise that I HAVE to have some isolation. What buds would work with decently good sound and give me the isolation of, say a pair of earplugs?
You may wonder why I need this so bad. I'll tell you one thing about driving tractors all day, it isn't hard, but dang its boring. The most odd thoughts become interesting, I'll just leave it up to your imagination.
