I will highly recommend the Sony D-NE20 discman. Thats what I am using right now(I mentioned that in post #20). And the sound quality is defintely the best I have heard from a portable audio device. Coupled with my PX 200, the music is full bodied enough, dynamic and powerful. Listening to techno, trance and pop is definitely shiok. Listening to classical or soundtrack, you may need to tune down the bass.
I bought the D-NE20 after reading reviews from hifi magazine and I have no regrets over my choice. The looks and the slimness is also a plus point:lovegrin: The amplifier and sound processor is built into the controller not the player itself.
Oh yeah you can also listen to MP3 burned into CDs on the D-NE20.
