Advantages: Cheap, plays VCD Disadvantages: Poor quality construction, uses up batteries very quickly
.
According to the manufacturer the following is the battery operating times:
3-5 hours (MP3/128kbps or VCD / Alkaline Type)
5-8 hours (CD-DA with ESP / Alkaline Type)
7-10 hours (CD-DA without ESP/Alkaline Type)
Having used this player to play files at 192kbs I am lucky if I can get one hour of listening time using the rechargeable batteries that were supplied with it, given that they were an unknown brand I put this problem down to them being poor quality rechargeable batteries, I replaced them with a well known brand to no avail as the playing time did not improve.
I also tried assorted other types of battery and there still has been no improvement, I accepted the fact that using a higher bitrate would lead to more power consumption to decode those MP3s but sadly I don't think under one hour is acceptable, I have had 2 ...
Advantages: Good value for money (at the time), feature-packed Disadvantages: Some quite big problems
Two years ago, the Napa DAV310 was one of the first MP3/CDplayers on the market. Its RRP was about £120, and I bought mine for £85 - which is not too bad, even by today's standards.
The DAV310 is a combined CD-audio, MP3 and Video CDplayer, runs off an internal rechargeable Li-Ion battery, and comes with an infrared remote control - unusual for a portable player. Its white and orange casing is garish to say the least - an optimist would call it an anti-theft feature. Its buttons are well laid out and adequately sized. Build quality is reasonable - the lid is a bit flimsy, but when shut, the unit feels solid. The remote control is a credit-card sized unit with flattish buttons, not unlike the remote controls you get with modern camcorders. You get a pretty basic manual in the box, but it covers everything and it's not bad, to ...
Advantages: Plays vcd's and mp3's (though just!) Disadvantages: No anti shock on cd's, useless battery, mp3 search poor
I bought this product for £100 a couple of months ago but ended up selling it as it is flawed.
The premise is excellent, a portable remote control CD player that also plays vcd's and mp3 discs, which means in the compressed mp3 format you can get 13 hours of music on 1 CD.
As soon as it was delivered I set it all up and connected it to my TV which wasn't too tricky as the manual was fairly good, and all the leads a mains adapter and headphones were included. I tried a normal audio CD for a start and so far so good the sound quality was not going to set the world on fire but it was okay. I then tried a VCD and that was okay too except for the remote control only worked every now and then.
My problems started when I tried my mp3 discs. As there are about 140 tracks on 1 disc trying to find a particular track is a nightmare unless you ...
