The RCA RP2300 Slim Design Personal CD Player offers bass boost for big digital sound in a size that can fit anywhere. Along with comfortable full-range headphones, you get programmable CD memory so you can play your music in any order you want, or use shuffle play if you like to be surprised. The auto-off feature protects battery life. This player works with either the included AC adapter or with 2 AA batteries. It comes with lightweight stereo headphones and a one-year limited warranty.
1 worked for me
I thought the bass boost was an interesting and entertaining add on. Just plug the player into a wall and you're set.
2 It's aweful!
This cd player plays music well, if you sit and don't move. It skips with every move you make. 2 Levels of bass boost.. kind of interesting, but if you are walking on the road and step too heavily, well, the music skips even for that. The color is really pretty (that's why i gave it 2 stars instead of 1), but be remeinded that the blue or red or whatever color that encompasses the little section on the top is easily scratch off... you'll see it after a little while and have no idea where the color went.
For the money that you'll spend on this personal cd player, you can get a much better one for the same price, or add $10 more and get one that really works well.
3 WORST CD PLAYER EVER!!!!!!!
I recieved this cd player on my birthday and it doesn't even last for 1 hour on batteries. When you push a button it skips and after using it for 1 1/2 hours it stops playing and the cd spins real fast. This is a piece of (!@#*. Spend your money on something better!!!!!!!!!!
4 Don't buy this cd player
I have had my cd player for less than a year, and I have go buy another one becuase this one doesn't work any more. I the skip protection is horrible, the battery usage is horrible, and now I have trouble using the headphone jack. No matter what type of head phones I use, it does not play right. Don't waste your money on this cd player.
5 It [stinks]
I gave this item two stars for no other reason than it plays cds. The only feature I find partically useful (besides play, stop, etc.) is repeat. The sound quality is good, but if you're moving it around too much it'll skip, so if you jog, ride in bumpy cars, or do anything besides sit there like a bump on a (very still) log I recommend spending your money on something else.
6 Decent for its price
This product does the job it advertises to do. It offers no ESP (shock protection), and that would be my main complaint. However, it is also one of the cheaper models, so you can't expect everything. That said, it still can handle minor motions. Jogging is out of the question, but walking is a possibility, so you won't necessarily be glued to your desk with this model.
The CD player is fairly compact and stylish, probably fitting into most big coat pockets. The two levels of bass boost are nice, but since the unit already seems to be a little harder on battery consumption than others, I tend to turn it off (if it even makes a difference, I'm not sure). I haven't unwrapped the AC adapter yet, since I only use it when I'm on the go, but it's a nice addition. The headphones are adequate but I prefer my earphones just for portability sake. The best feature is that the hold switch, open disc, and volume sliders are all on the side of the unit. I only wish play and stop were too, so I'd never have to pull it out of my pocket or reach down inside.
My last comment would be that when battery levels start fizzling out, it may take a huge amount of loading time before it plays (if at all). That's what keeping me from giving it 4 stars instead of 3. Maybe I should be happy it plays at all with so little power; I just wish it would make up its mind sooner instead of leaving me sit there waiting, wondering if I should replace the batteries or not.
7 pretty good cd player
This cd player has very good clear sound with a great bass boost.And since i am a first time buyer i find that it is very easy to use . The only problem with it is that it does skip alot but with the great price you can't expect to much.
8 Very Good, but with some bad sides as well...
OK, this cd is, like the title says, both good and bad. With this being my fist portable cd player, it works well. I usually take it out on my boat, and it work pretty well, i just slip it in my pocket and try to hear it over the motor. Bass boost is comparable, and with 2 levels, you can tone it down a bit if you can't hear anything else. I haven't really tried the program, shuffle and like 4 other modes this thing has, so I can't say anything about that. Battery usage: Very good if you're just sitting in the car in aren't moving around a lot, but the batteries get pretty worn down when you spend an hour mowing grass. As for skippage, you just gotta know how to pick it up, how to compensate for hard waves, how position it, things like that. But you can get used to it after awhile. All in all, it's a great cd player at a great price.
9 It was not that good
This CD player is good and bad. The bad first. It has like no shock protection so if u lift it up it will skip. The battery indicator only comes on when the battery is dead. Now the good. It is returnable. Has good headphones. Very good Quality. very good bass boost.
