I just recently purchased this product and it is a great unit. The sound quality is good (I personally upgraded my headphones) and there is no skip thanks to ESPMax. I also run around a lot so it really is a good workout player. The AVLS system is wonderful and helpful. Megabass is great! Also, the lid is heat resistant which helps when out in the sun. But best of all is the digital AM/FM tuner! It's great because if I get tired of listening to my CDs, I can just press a button and boom! The radio is on! Overall I found this product to be fun and practical. Hope this review was of help to you!

I DID ALOT OF SHOPPING AROUND TO RPLACE MY 2 MONTH OLD CD PLAYER, THAT HAD ALREADY BROKEN. AFTER READING THE REST OF THE REVIEWS, I DECIDED TO BUY THIS ONE. AND I SURE AM GLAD I DID! IT IS AWESOME. IT WAS BETTER THEN WHAT I HAD SUSPECTED. THERES AWESOME BASS, AND THERES AN AWESOME, 25 FM STAION PRESET, AND 5 STATION AM PRSET, RADIO! I WOULD REALLY VERY MUCH RECCOMEND THIS ITEM, ITS JUST GREAT!

I got this CD player, and it works great! The FM/AM radio is great, and you don't have to move to hear it right when your in the house. The bass boost system is really good, but it only works with the CD playback. It doesn't skip with the ESPMAX on, and I don't think it is a 48 second anti-skip mode, because all you do is open the lid, and move the ESPMAX switch to on. It's battery life with the radio on is usually about 66 hours, and with the CD playback with ESPMAX on it's 24 hours, and with it off is 25 hours. The AVLS(Automatic Volume Limiter System)works great too, although I don't use it. This CD player is really a great deal!

My Grandfather had bought me this a couple of years ago and it lasted me up intill a couple of days ago well let me tell you I am the worst when it comes to dropping things! I was always dropping it. Well when it broke i decided to but a new one I went through a long list of nearly 200 and still found myself liking this one best!

My mom had bought me this Cd player for my birthday or Christmas, I forgot which one. Sony know's how to make their stuff last, let me tell you. This thing is virtually skip free, even when the surface that it's playing on shakes and quakes it won't skip at all. And I just love the little "W" logo they have on it,haha. What's even better about this Cd Walkman is that it has radio presets. Talk about the icing on the cake. Among the Cd player options are bass, repeat,ESP, AVLS, and some other options. Did I mention the D-F20 is rugged like the streets of Brooklyn? No joke, one night I was walking to my mom's tax office where she works from a real estate class I had. Well, I had accidentally dropped it on the concrete sidewalk, I'm so clumsy. After I picked it up I thought it would've had some irreparable damage...but it didn't! I pressed play again and it was as if I never even dropped it. Sony makes some durable walkman cd players man. This thing has been a dream to own. If you're not an audio know it all like myself and/or if you're just looking for a reliable Cd player then follow my simple rule: When it comes to portable audio, stick with Sony.
