Cyber Monday >>>> Only Visit store to see price Best Buy Hands down, Sony's D-EJ915 is the most elegant and practical portable CD player on the market. A thing of beauty and durability, this top-of-the-line CD Walkman comes dressed in a sleek, lightweight, metal-topped case that's actually smaller in width and no longer than a CD jewel box, and only a tad thicker. The player slips tightly into a rubbery handgrip-equipped carrying case that makes it a pleasure to "palm" and tote about.

And what a performer! Even in the most agitated athletic activities, this player keeps tracking music perfectly, with nary a skip or pause, and with fine sound coming through the supplied over-the-ear headphones (or the accessory earphones or receiver of your choice).

Better still, the D-EJ915's efficient engineering lets you go for weeks between battery charges and changes. In fact, upwards of 57 hours of disc spinning are possible from the combination of onboard rechargeable NiMH stick batteries and an outboard pair of AA alkaline batteries that fit into a separate tubelike carrying case (connected to the main unit by a thin cable.) Plus, a graphic display indicates remaining battery power, so you won't run out of musical steam in the middle of your morning jog.

Usually, CD portables present tradeoffs when the user switches on the antishock protection circuitry. Battery power drains more quickly because the player must spin faster than normal to constantly replenish a memory buffer. And sound quality can diminish as well, because that same buffer tends to cut high frequencies as sound trickles through it.

However, the mighty D-EJ915 is a breed apart. It uses Sony's new G-Protection shock-protection circuitry--actually a combination of improvements including a far more responsive laser beam assembly and variable-speed turntable--to ride out the jolts. The combination works so efficiently and Sony's sound storage buffer is so well designed that the manufacturer hasn't seen the need to offer a defeat switch for the feature! The only time G-P does shut down is when an optical cable is connected to the unit for digital-domain transfer of a disc's contents--say, to a minidisc.

The function display is built into an oval-shaped remote control pod that's located at the end of a special headphone cable, making it easier to stash this tiny player away in a pocket or bag and still run the unit. The short-cabled headphones supplied with the unit then plug into the other end of the pod. We liked the fact that the control pod can clip to clothing and has an LED display that glows green whenever we hit a function button or the light bar. (The display is also visible when the backlight is off.)

Buttons are small and subtly marked on the control pod. The same could be said for the tiny control buttons located on the slim perimeter of the player itself. Unfortunately, this is one Sony product where you actually need to read the owner's manual to get the hang of all features and operations. (The effective Mega Bass option, for example, is accessible only from the remote.) Also a little annoying is the fact that to change a disc, you must first unplug the headphone/remote control cable before sliding the player out of its carrying case.

Those quibbles noted, we still highly endorse the D-EJ915. This CD Walkman is proof that you don't need to settle for a lower-resolution MP3 or minidisc format to find a music carrier that holds up well under torturous user conditions. The D-EJ915 performs great and looks quite elegant. You're going to love owning it.
