Philips AX2200 portable cd player

Advantages: Skip protection, dynamic bass boost, cd rewritable
Disadvantages: It's a bit big and low battery life.

First of all this cd player is quite cheap but as the battery life is lower than other competitors it can cost more to run in the long term. It looks okay but there is a bit to much writing on the front. The player is relatively loud and has a nice bass b ...

Review of Philips AX 2200

Philips AX2200 Portable CD player

Advantages: shock-proof, plays CD-R and CD-RW
Disadvantages: uses a lot of battery- very low playback time

This is not only quite a bulky piece of equipment, but in my opinion it is not particularly good looking. It has too much writing on the front, and although it is very cheap (at under £30), it is expensive to run due to the amount of batteries it uses up, ...

Review of Philips AX 2200

Sony Walkman (though you could jog, man)

Advantages: Looks nice, excellent sound quality, plays CD-R's/CD-RW, nice price,shock-proof

Review of Sony D-E 330

Sony CD Walkman D-E330 - Takes hell of a punch

Advantages: Choice of 3 colours, 33 hour battery time with recharge capability, Includes 1 year warranty, Brilliant two stage bass system, Extremely hardy and has an incredibly sufficient Anti-Shock Mechanism
Disadvantages: Scratches Easilly, Hold button can irritatingly lock on when you are amidst usage, Earphones lose their ability to play bass - can however be solved simply by replacing them with a different pair.

* Inspiration for Review* Brilliant CD Walkman. I had bought the walkman several months back, but recently dropped it off the second floor of my house. I was peering outside my bedroom window with my cd walkman, when I slipped, and the poor walkman ...
