Re: Is this MP3 player alright??

Thanks for your rewievs!

I actually went out and bought me an H10, couldnt wait untill my friend would come back home.. So far i think it seems mighty tasty. I have only tried thoose phones that it was shipped with so far so i cant really say anything about the sound quality yet.

Seems like a nice buy though! :P

Re: Is this MP3 player alright??

get the sony headphones that amazon recommend. The seinheiser ones that come with the irivers don't do it justice at all

Re: Is this MP3 player alright??

there is much more sound than those supplied ear buds can deliver, mine sounds great in the car (wired from 1/8" headphone jack to aux on the head unit)

The way I see it, the one advantage to buying an ipod is that they have the peripheral market covered, especially OEM car stereo integration kits, which I expect most cars to have in a few years time.

I have an IRiver H140, (older version of the H340), and love the thing. If you compare the IRiver to the IPod of the same size, IRivers are cheaper, have more features, and have longer battery life. (Well, I think Apple has finally caught up on battery life to be almost on par with the IRiver hard disk players.)

The only thing I wish IRiver had was a 60 or 80GB version. My 40GB has been full now for months.

but DAMN man, $279 for 5gigs? Rip..OFF!

That is why that company will not last for a whole long time. I didn't like their forst cd/mp3 player, the amp on it sucked bad.

They have those small mp3 recorders that have 512 megs, those are actually really good. You can set the thing to record at the bitrate you want and then it'll go all night...if that's what you want. A buddie of mine records all his sets that way...at 160KBPS. I'd say that's pretty good for four hours of a set.

Re: Is this MP3 player alright??

My H120 (20GB) broke a few weeks back. It was only seven months old. I just got in contact with their customer service today after multiple tries and will be getting a brand new one.

Up until it broke (the hard drive came loose inside) I was very happy with it. Interface wasn't wonderful, but the sound and feature set were great.

I never came close to filling it. I would usually put about six hours of music on, then delete things. There was about always about 3 GB of tunes on it, so I could see myself surviving with a 5 GB player.

The nicest thing about iriver is it totally ignores DRM. If you put it on, it can play it. You can also back up non-music files and use it as a removable drive.

I have a Dell DJ20 and love it... The ipod & iriver may have more features, but I really don't need them. If you want a good basic player for less money, you could do a lot worse...

the shures are good but you can get a significant upgrade just from the sony fontopias. the 71's. the go in the ear and amazon has them for $30. i'd highly recommend them.

I know what you mean bro. I just saw an 808GIG HD External at BB for $80.00 but I figured I'd wait another couple months and the 120GIG ones will be that price.

Now why would you do that when you could wait a few months more and get the 170GB for the same price? :P
