Advantages: Simple Operation. Ease of set up. Fantastic value for money. Great sound. Disadvantages: None
...I purchased my A5 a sevenoaks hifi outlet. They were very helpful and most of their stores have a listening room. I had the advantage of trying the A5 with all sorts of combinations of speaker and I also tried other amps in the price range. The A5 comes in a ultra sleek casing which at first glance will maybe give you a little uncertainty as to how to place it. Whist the casing is futuristic in style it could also be coined as retro. Whatever way you view it the sturdy aluminium looking case will appeal to all but the most difficult to impress type. Now for the good bit. To put the picture in context I was upgrading from a amp in the £400 range so maybe it wouldnt of taken to much to impress me? Right? Wrong!! As a proffesional musician I have been used to hearing live music and hopefully have a reasonable ear. I had brought along 3...

Advantages: Small, looks good, light, cool, FM radio, voice recorder Disadvantages: Slow navigation and general responsivness
...The Creative Zen Stone Plus is the 2Gb upgrade of the basic Stone, and as well as the extra 1Gb of space it has a small LED screen for viewing track information and navigating content, a voice recorder, and FM radio.
As a cheap, small, easily portable MP3 player with a large enough memory to stop me from listening to the same songs every 5 minutes this serves it's purpose very well.
Pros:
- it looks cool;
- it holds around 500 tracks depending on their size;
- it's tiny;
- sound quality and volume are good (even with the radio)
- software allows for easy drag-and-drop quick uploads (although once you upload from one folder you can't upload more tracks or browse any until the upload is finished)
Cons:
- you need to download the software from the internet, so if you don't have a connection you have to risk using windows...

Advantages: Great sound, easy controlls, looks great! Disadvantages: small screen to watch video's on.
...This Creative Zen V Plus is a stylish little mp3 player that is very handy and looks very nice. With the 1GB version you can fit about 1000 songs on there and you can also store some video files and watch them (providing they are the correct format).
The controll system mainly consists of a play/pause button, a stop button and a stick that allows you to controll left,right,up,down and select. Also there is an on off button on the side and a volume controll on the other side. The controlls on this mp3 are very neat and are extreamly easy to use.
In the menu you have options for music, video, picture, settings, now playing and a extras menu. In music you can select to browse by artist, album or just have a list of all the songs. You can have multiple play modes consisting of shuffle, play all, repeat, repeat all. There is a cool...
