The best portable CD player left?,

This review is from: Sony D-NF340 CD Walkman & MP3 Player w/FM Tuner (Electronics)
After searching the net for a day, this was the best CD player I could find. I bought the unit as a backup for my (still functioning well) Sony DNF-430, a unit I'm in love with but I am concerned that when it eventually dies (as we all must), there will no longer be a decent standard CD player at all.
This unit seems to be the successor to the 430. Several improvements have been made over the 430:
It uses 2 batteries instead of 1 for longer play between battery swaps
The controls are much better -- transport function controls that were twitchy on the 430 are larger and better laid out
The remote is easier to use, and the controls are laid out identically to those on the top of the player
It "remembers" where you left off playing a CD and starts from there after being stopped OR (new) even after the door has been opened
The display is much easier to read, especially from an angle
The case seems more solid
The price has been substantially...Read more

I like to listen to books on disk while I clean, which means I'm moving around. This CD-player is great. I can move around freely without it interrupting the playback. This is a HUGE improvement over the CD-player I owned previously.
Additionally, the sound is good and the interface is intuitive. I am very happy with my purchase.

TONS OF VOLUME, BASS, FEATURES,
June 29, 2009 Gene Beck (Chandler, AZ) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Sony D-NF340 CD Walkman & MP3 Player w/FM Tuner (Electronics)
I purchased the Sony D-NF340 CD Walkman & MP3 Player w/FM Tuner to replace my ageing 11 year old Panasonic SL-S232C portable CD player. I would have purchased another Panasonic player however none was available. I did purchase a Phillips CD/MP3 player from a large national retail chain. I returned it because it skiped, shut off frequently (so much for anti-shock) and it had below average sound quality.
VOLUME: I almost didn't purchase the Sony D-NF340 because a few of the reviews I read stated that the player has little or very low volume. However, I own a number of other Sony products (LCD HD T-V, Blue Ray, Camcorders etc.)and all of them are of the finest quality. So I took a chance. Well, Let me assure you that this player will provide more than enough volume and bass. I increased the volume and the volume bar graph on the...Read more
