| nojmplease's Full Review: iRiver iMP-550 SlimX Personal CD Player |
This product I purchased through an online vendor a few weeks ago, and I have loved it! I was searching the market for a top-of-the-line CD player, and I decided that having the MP3 CD feature would be very useful. I stumbled upon this unit after reading some reviews that spoke very highly of it. This unit has been flawless in its performance, and their are so many wonderful features it would be difficult to list them all.
The design is streamlined, stylish, and definetly a head-turner. The materials feel very high quality, though I would suggest keeping the CD player in its included case to prevent any cosmetic damage to this beauty. The included remote with LCD screen is a breeze to use (after a few tries), and the features that you can select are incredible. The remote renders the actual CD unit almost unnecesary, as all of the controls are found on the remote.
The sound quality is impeccable, and since I rip all of my CD's at 256 kb/sec or higher (the max is 320 kb/sec) each song sounds beautiful. The included headphones are decent, though you can add your own pair if you wish.
The unit includes a nice carrying case, a car kit, a charger (for batteries which are claimed to last 55 hours!), and ability to upgrade the firmware on the device.
I would highly recommend this product to anyone in the market for a CD player, an MP3, or just anyone who appreciates high quality sound.
