Summary:
I dont own this discman, but I tried it out the similiar model D-ES51. I really like the design of this discman, and when comparing it to the Panasonic Shockwave with 40 second anti skip it was slightly better at not skipping with the anti skip off. I'll also mention that Sony's sports discmans are made in japan instead of the regular Malaysia where there other ones are made. I think this is probably to improve the durability, although I have nothing again Malaysia cause that's where my old 1992 Sony portable (but very large) stereo was made and I have used it constantly and never had a problem with it. Hope this helps whoever posted this review, as I imagine they are probably considering buying this discman.
