5.0 out of 5 stars Best discman ever, 26 Jan 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: Sony D-EJ1000 Silver CD Walkman (Electronics)
The D-EJ1000 represents the pinnacle of Sony's design prowess. It is currently the smallest discman and just shy of the lightest, yet it is durable because of its magnesium body. You also don't need to worry about batteries, as it comes with rechargable "gumstick" batteries as well as a cool charging stand. You won't be using the stand much, though because the batteries last about forty hours between charges. You can get 115 hours if you hook up two "AA" size alkaline batteries to it also.
Another great feature is that it can read CD-R/RW discs. Further, the supplied remote is a godsend if you record your own discs, as it allows you to see the song title of the track you are playing.
There is a slight downside, however, and that is the supplied headphones. Throw them out and buy a good pair. I use Sony E888's or EX70's, both of which provide very good sound. Also, the buttons on the unit itself are very small, so you're better off just using the remote. Lastly, it's not cheap. In fact, it's Sony's most expensive model.

Bottom line: A great top-of-the-line unit, highly recommended.

3.0 out of 5 stars looks good, feels good, just a shame about the poor sound!, 10 Aug 2002
This review is from: Sony D-EJ1000 Silver CD Walkman (Electronics)
The Sony D-EJ1000 looks the part with its shiny metal front and back (and not the mention its TINY oval size), but not all is good because the sound is seriously poor.
The bass is AWEFUL, and does nothing but distort the sound and kill all of the CD recordings atmosphere. You can turn the bass boosts off, which solves the problem slightly, but there are still slight distortions in sound, which are seriously irritating. The earphones supplied are fine, although they could be better.
My advice is this, if the want the smallest portable CD player money can buy, get this. Its light weight, looks good, and the sound is 'average' (when there is no bass). If you want greater sound quality and don't mind a little more bulk look at some other CD walkman models.
Overall I'm afraid I'd say I am a little disappointed with this machine, it costs a lot of money so you'd expect the best, which is not what Sony have given.

2.0 out of 5 stars Disappointed, 25 April 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: Sony D-EJ1000 Silver CD Walkman (Electronics)
This thing has it all, except in the sound quality department. It's built great, looks snappy, although it could use a bit of work in the ergonomics department. For one thing, it's hard to open it with one hand.

I bought the D-EJ1000 to replace my aging D-777, which was Sony's top-of-the-line model back about 1995. Size-wise, it's about the same, but the D-777 is a bit taller, and made of plastic for the most part. At least back then Sony supplied real carrying cases for the things, rather than a loose-fitting bag made of thin material.

I used the same headphones as I always do, my Sony MDR-E888 earbuds and was immediately disturbed by the sound quality. Without bass boost sound quality was as you'd expect--dull. With bass 1 it was still bland. So I cranked it up to bass 2 and was immediately surprised at how overdriven the bass sounded. Everything sounded muddy. If I were a "glass is half-full" kind of guy, I might say that it sounded "warm", but why sugar-coat it? Over-powered bass and muffled trebles are all I'm hearing.

I thought immediately that something must be wrong with my headphones, so I plugged them back into the D-777 and swapped the CD over. Clean trebles, nice bass, nothing muddy at all. I tried Jazz, Flamenco, Trance, Rock, and some poppy stuff from Japan. The only thing that sounded alright was a Cure CD recorded in the 80's.

I don't know what Sony did wrong. Perhaps they figure that the people that want to enjoy their music have moved on to the digital players or Minidiscs. I don't know. But I'm very very disappointed.
