RCA RD1060 64 MB Kazoo Digital Audio Player

 (66 customer reviews)

The RCA RD1060 64 MB Kazoo Digital Audio Player is not only small, it is very light, a sassy shade of metallic red, and a more than overdue upgrade from my 1989 Sony Walkman. Although there are mp3 players that have a lot more memory etc., I chose this one because of its small size and minimal weight, which makes it an excellent jogging companion.The Musicmatch software for downloading music onto the player is a bit clunky, but is easy to use and install (even without reading the user manual). I can put about 9-12 songs on the player when I download using the highest sound quality---about 35 minutes of music. I like having the option to add a memory card; it was a key factor in my decision to purchase the player. A 128 MB memory card would increase the memory to 192 MB, which will be perfect for when I can actually jog for longer than 35 minutes...The sound quality is excellent as soon as you get a new pair of headphones. The ones provided are not adjustable and terribly...Read more

I shopped around for an MP3 player for a while and settled on the RCA Kazoo for three reasons. The first was price. I wanted a basic MP3 player but did not really want to spend hundreds of dollars. The second was that I already had the Music Match software on my PC and figured it would be easy to get an MP3 player that works with my existing software. The third was the style - the RCA Kazoo just looks like a cool little gadget. I am VERY pleased with this unit. This is the perfect MP3 player for jogging, biking, walking, excercising, etc. The compact size and trendy styling makes carrying it around a pleasure. The controls are very simply layed out on the unit making it a very intuitive device. The sound quality is very good. While it doesn't have the sound quality of a high end audio system, it is better than I expected from an MP3 player in this price range. It is certainly more than adequate for a portable, go anywhere, device.The 64 MB memory is a good size. I can...Read more

The Kazoo is a great little MP3 player. Its small size, light weight (just a few ounces, even with the two AAA batteries installed), big sound, easy-to-use interface, skip-free playback and fast USB connectivity makes this an excellent unit, particularly for working out. For working out, the included wrist/arm band is perfect for having the Kazoo readily accessible, but out of the way. There is also an included lanyard for hanging the player around your neck, but this tends to bounce too much.The player has no equalizer, but does have a number of preset sound modes, including rock, pop, bass, etc., which are quite adequate. The player has no song title display as other players do.As with most pre-packaged MP3/CD players, the best thing to do with the enclosed headphones is toss them out with the packaging. I paired my Kazoo up with a pair of Sony street headphones, and the sound is great, particularly in the bass preset mode.The Kazoo will also support MMC expansion cards...Read more
