Review 1 of 9

Price Paid:  $100.00 from AAFES

Summary:
I have been using this unit for around 3 years now in my car. When lying on the seat it does skip but the roads here in South Korea are a bit rough. I guess I took this unit for granted as it has finally started to skip more and more easily. I puchased a Sony Car Discman to replace it but could not believe the difference in audio quality between the two. There was so much music missing from the Sony's output that I took it back to the store within hours. Wish I could find something similar with better anti-shock and a heavy duty case.

Strengths:
It has been durable for me and that says alot. Mine is so used now that the paint and plastic is worn off in spots but it still works.

Weaknesses:
Anti-skip technology not up to current standards.

Similar Products Used:
Sony Car Discman (Audio quality not as good).

Review 5 of 9

Price Paid:  $0.00

Summary:
i think that this cd player is awesome with variable anti skip systems with 2 rechargable betteries. (there's 4 battery spaces but 2 of them is for the rechargable batt and 2 substitutes) the anti skip works. there was no time that it skipped since i bought it. the only bad thing about this is that the bass boost is on when ever you turn it on. but overall, i'll give it a 5 out of 5 stars

Strengths:
four batteries (2 for rechargable and 2 for substitute batt) variable anti skip, etc....

Weaknesses:
the bass boost stay on when every u turn it on

panassonic SL-CT790 this is excellent beyond excellent!!
