i like it better than any other cd player

I LIKE THIS MP3/CD PLAYER VRS ANY OTHER THAT I BOUGHT IN THE PAST. I REMEMBER WHEN YOU COULD BUY THE PLAYER AT ANY STORE SELLING IT. ITS MUCH LOUDER THAN ANY OF THE CD PLAYERS IVE BOUGHT. ONLY ONE ISSUE I HAVE.ITS SIZE.ITS BIG. BUT SO IS ITS SOUND.

Multipurpose.

The book - product endorsement. Philips has done just this with the Philips Nike PSA [CD12, an MP3 CD player with a similar sports styling to the PSA 128 MAX and just as many swoosh logos as you'd expect of a product with Nike in the title. Being a...

Cheaper and multipurposed

Design has older

Philips Nike Psa[cd12

Great sounding player

...The sound was really nice, the volume was not so low. A little lower than my old [one] but I can handle this small difference and it had an equalizer for controlling treble and bass. ... This is really nice. I agree that the design and the battery...

this product is not a "sports" cd player

I needed a new sports cd player to use while running, so I bought this Philips cd/mp3 player. While I enjoyed the fact that it played mp3s and was relatively inexpensive, I was very disappointed with the product as a whole. The magnetic parts that...
