Terrific little player

Mon, 1 Oct 2007 05:01:34 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author fewtch - This is really a great little player for the money. It's relatively easy on the 1-AAA battery it uses, and sounds excellent considering the low price and voltage (replacement headphones recommended, as always... try something from Koss). Some have...

Outstanding!

Wed, 27 Sep 2006 23:52:44 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author fewtch - I recently picked up a Philips Brilliance 107P40/94 (New Old Stock) to replace my rapidly dying Iiyama Vision Master Pro 410 17" CRT. I still prefer CRT monitors due to cost, speed and overall display quality. The Philips is easily the equal of the...

A reasonable player for the budget-conscious

Tue, 24 May 2005 05:53:14 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author fewtch - I was a relatively early adopter of the DVD format, having gotten involved in 1999. At that time, prices on players were still rather high -- the average was around $200 (of course, quality was also substantially better, particularly from the brand...

Skips like mad, but has its uses...

Thu, 5 May 2005 23:39:33 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author fewtch - This player skips if you breathe on it. However, CD players without skip protection tend to sound better than those with, because the memory buffer used for the skip protection is compressed (like a low bitrate MP3, it tends to ruin the sound). Also,...

Disappointing sound and build quality

Fri, 15 Apr 2005 08:30:54 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author fewtch - I recently picked up a pair of Koss KTXPRO1 as a backup pair of portable headphones, based mainly on their looks and low price, hoping for something as good as my Koss Portapro2 headphones (which are nearly identical to the...

Audio/Video sync issues

Fri, 14 Jan 2005 11:29:38 GMT

rating: 2/5 by: Epinions Author fewtch - After reading all the other reviews, I was very interested in getting this player. Unfortunately, I find myself disappointed by the fact that (A) audio and video go out of sync with non-DVD movies all too often, and (B) Too often you can't rewind or...

A decent, business-oriented optical wireless mouse

Fri, 26 Mar 2004 00:34:05 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author fewtch - This review is going to be relatively short and sweet, because optical cordless mice are nothing new these days. I'll spare you a novel, but will try to provide you with as much information as possible to help make a purchasing decision, including some...

Helpful for mild to moderate depression/anxiety...

Sun, 29 Feb 2004 05:32:57 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author fewtch - St. John's Wort is an herb that's been used for hundreds (or even thousands) of years for many different purposes (mood elevation being one of the primary uses). It's prescribed regularly by doctors in Germany and other European countries for...

Perfect card for the 2-channel audiophile

Sun, 3 Aug 2003 19:41:59 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author fewtch - I purchased my M-Audio Audiophile from Newegg recently, as I was looking for a good 2-channel stereo...

Breaks the price/sound barrier

Sat, 2 Aug 2003 05:08:47 GMT

rating: 5/5 by: Epinions Author fewtch - I first purchased a pair of Grado SR-60's after hearing a lot of rave reviews of these headphones on...

Great cans at this price point!

Fri, 1 Aug 2003 19:23:38 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author fewtch - I've owned a pair of Denon AH-D550's for years. I find them to be very accurate, if somewhat colore...

OK entry-level turntable

Sat, 3 Aug 2002 21:37:35 GMT

rating: 3/5 by: Epinions Author fewtch - I ended up returning my DP-26F to look for something better, but in the meantime I couldn't find anything wrong with the build quality. For what you get here, this is a well-built turntable, and has received good reviews from the audio press.

Worth the bucks

Sun, 21 Jan 2001 08:36:00 GMT

rating: 4/5 by: Epinions Author fewtch - Well, what can I say... I was paying $19.95/month for 28.8k access (that's all I can get in my area, a suburb of Seattle 'out in the boonies' and too far from the phone company to even get 56k).

So finally AT&T @Home works their way to my...
