I was looking for a CD Walkman for use in low light conditions - ideally one with a back lit display, but I doubted such a thing existed (having never seen one) until I came across the Sony D-NE520.
The display back-light only lights up for 10-20 seconds after any button press, but that's fine for selecting tracks or changing sound settings.
It also has a red LED that lights when in play mode, flashes in pause mode, and goes out in stop mode - very useful for knowing what mode it's in at a glance. The same LED also turns amber when playing an mp3 disc and green for an Atrac disc.
Atrac is Sony's own music compression codac, claimed by Sony to be better than mp3. It also offers gapless playback which is ... Read More:

I was initially outraged that other reviewers were disagreeing with me, but I tried again, and I was wrong and they were right. It can produce plenty of noise in my car now. The diagnoses offered were wide of the mark: I knew about the single channel and had tried flipping the autoreverse on my stereo. That just changed it from "off" to "barely audible". I had done all the fiddling I knew how to. The volume was at full on both CD player and car stereo. What seemed to make the difference this time around was the hefty, annoyed yank I gave the cable just as I was feeling vindicated. The Pet Shop Boys deafened me. I suppose what I had done was brought the cassettes mechanism into proper contact with the playback head on the machine. This may ... Read More:
