Hi Y'All
I'm sitting here listening to the Rio Volt CD/MP3 player that I purchased today from my local Argos. Sound quality wise, this player is actually very impressive. However, having just read a review of the Iriver 2, I've decided to order it from Greycommerce.com. So this player is going back to Argos in the next couple of days.
I'm really hoping that this player resolves the problems with playing standard CD's whilst on the move. The Rio Volt PSX 100 just can't handle being moved around. It's generally OK when playing MP3's - but still tends to suffer the occasional stutter when walking around.
From what I have read, the Iriver 2 has a better anti-shock memory and higher headphone output. Although this player is reasonably OK level wise, it would be nice to have a little more.
If the Iriver 2 is all it's cracked up to be, I shall be selling my Sony D-915 Discman - just out of curiousity, anyone in the UK interested for around £75? Perfect condition with a spare set of the gumstick batteries. Note that this is a tentative sell at the moment - the new player should be with me in around a month to 6 weeks all being well.
I will keep you all posted.
