The sound is good, although when I use it at the gym, I need to have the volume all the way up in order to drown out the gym music. I think that's because the ear buds on the wireless headphones don't fit properly in my ears. They are a littl big. But outside of the gym, walking for example, I don't need the volume up nearly that high.
The largest fault I have with this product is the charger for the wireless headphones. They don't work all that well, in that the connection is touchy and it takes a few minutes for me to be sure they are charging and quite often the charge is not complete. I'm considering having the wireless charger replaced if possible... The reception with the wireless headphones is good, although I've experienced some static when I have the unit in my pocket at the gym, and I am riding the recumbent bike. When I am lifting weights though, I experience no issues...Read more 3 of 3 people found the following review helpful: By Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?) This review is from: RCA S2501 Jet Stream Series 1GB Sport MP3 Player with Wireless Headphones (Electronics) This is a pretty sweet unit. It's nice looking and small, and relatively easy to use if you're even slightly technologically inclined. You'll have to play around with the menu system for a while to get a feel for how it works, but that won't be a problem because you'll probably be fascinated by it for a while.

So, it makes me wonder if I had any problems with the player, would the parent company exist anymore? And how can I be buying a product brand new and the website is already out of business?
That said, now that I have music on it I love it. I love a wireless device. However, you still need to have the payer on you. I can walk about 2 rooms away and then I lose the music. Also, no shuffle feature, so my songs always start from the beginning and play in the same order. |
