This twenty dollar baby really rocks!
I bought this at Best Buy only a few days after another player (a name brand) just didn't cut it. I use it mostly when I'm running, so my first test was, hop on the treadmill at the gym and see if the player skips. Nope, not a bar of music lost. It also became immediately apparent that the quality of the sound was impressive; I used Sennheiser PMX80 behind the ear sport phones and the music was sweet.
Then I got the player home, and hooked it up through the "Line Out" jack to my sound system; a very good feature I might add.. "Hah," I thought, "this will turn the sound from the Insignia to dust." NOPE! Even through my high-end system, it sounded great. Admittedly, a bit less in bass than my component cd player, but not enough to justify the some $480 difference in price! Still totally impressed.
Final test: play it through a set of the studio quality cans I have. Again, totally impressed by the excellent sound quality.
Oh, by the way, the CD I played for all my tests had many complex passages. Insignia handled them extremely well.
So, bottom line....If you need a new new portable CD player, and have an extra twenty some-odd bucks kickin' around, I can't see how you could do any better than this one.
What's great about it: Ease of use, quality of sound, "Line Out" jack, price.
What's not so great: Nothing.
I would recommend this to a friend!
