- buy Sony D-EJ106CK Walkman Portable CD Player with Car Kit (Silver) USA
10 of 10 people found the following review helpful Walkman EJ106CK not up to Sony past standards, By Amazon Verified Purchase(What’s this?) This review is from: Sony D-EJ106CK Walkman Portable CD Player with Car Kit (Silver) (Electronics) I’ve owned Sony Walkman CD players in the past that were really good and performed well in my car. When my last unit started to have some problems, I immediate bought another Sony, assuming equally good functionality. NOT. This unit has no backlight – try to change tracks in the dark car. The BIGGEST problem for me is that there is no “resume” function as in past units and no way to retain settings. When you disconnect the power source (as in shutting off the car) you lose volume settings and track settings so the unit always goes back to track 1 as opposed to resuming where you left off. There’s an annoying beep if you change from one track to another also. You can turn that off but then when you shut your car off, the setting is lost and you have to reset the “beep off” setting. Lastly, the unit is hard to open. Not a problem if you’re using it on a walk but a big problem if you’re trying to change CDs at a stop light in your car or trying to do it in the dark. While the anti-skip protection is great and the sound is reasonably good, there just have to be better buys out there. 6 of 6 people found the following review helpful Decent CD Player, By krohster (Richmond, VA United States) – See all my reviews This review is from: Sony D-EJ106CK Walkman Portable CD Player with Car Kit (Silver) (Electronics) I bought this CD player at Best Buy using a gift certificate I received for Christmas, and I also layed down more for a 2-year warranty (hard to turn down), which is good for repairs or replacements at Best Buy. This is a good CD player for the price. The sound is excellent, especially with the bass boost on. It sounds great coming from my 6 1/2″ Infinity speakers. The car accessories that come with it are pretty nifty, too. I was torn between buying an in-dash CD player and this, but all-in-all I’m happy with my purchase. It works out especially well for me, since I am allowed to listen to music while I’m at work. Most of my day is spent working, so I’m definitely getting my money’s worth. There are a couple of drawbacks, though. The button to open the CD player pretty much sucks, especially when you’re trying to open it while you’re driving. It can be a downright dangerous task at times. The volume contol buttons aren’t much good either because they’re really small and are also a pain to mess with while driving. The good outweighs the bad, though, so in my opinion it’s worth the money. 1 of 1 people found the following review helpful Stopped working in 2 weeks, By Amazon Verified Purchase(What’s this?) This review is from: Sony D-EJ106CK Walkman Portable CD Player with Car Kit (Silver) (Electronics) Not blaming the seller. Things appeared okay at first but in two weeks it won’t recognize the disc and reading what’s wrong on the web, it’s most likely the "eye". Not an expensive part to replace but kind of a hassle. |
