I got (what I thought was) a great deal yesterday on the Sony D-EJ01 - $98 at my local Shirokiya store here in Honolulu (one of the advantages of living here is the close proximity to all things Japanese: Shirokiya is a Tokyo retailer whose only store outside Japan is here, and their inventory - and sometimes pricing - reflects that; walking through their store is like a little stroll through Tokyo). However, on getting the thing home, I was shocked by its flimsy build quality, and poor ergonomics.
In addition to which, my unit had a sad defect: the door covering the disc slot remained open on one side. I returned the unit today (for a refund, since I didn't, strictly speaking, *need* a new player).
Has anyone else noticed this about the D-EJ01's build quality? I did like the way it sounded (though not with the horrible headphones supplied), and am wondering, as well, about the D-EJ1000 in terms of its build quality and sound - better than the D-EJ01? Thanks.
