I will be travelling overseas soon and I want to buy a portable CD player. Does anyone know of good brands, models, what I should avoid, prices, etc.? It should at least have 4x oversampling. I'm not so concerned about fancy features like memory and random play. I just want good sound quality. I will be going to London via Bangkok airport. Should I buy the player here in Sydney Australia, in Bangkok, or in London? Please e-mail replies. If there are a lot I will summarise and post to the net. Thanks in advance for any help. -- Jonathan Goldstein, Australian Centre for Unisys Software (ACUS) 115 Wicks Rd, North Ryde, NSW 2113, AUSTRALIA Ph: +61 2 (8876957 FAX:8882424) Internet: jono@syacus.oz.au UUCP: uunet!munnari!syacus.oz.au!jono

I always thought Sony's "MEGA-BASS" feature was great marketing horsepuckey. However, I discovered that the extra bass is very welcome on airplane flights, where you have a lot of low frequency ambient noise. This is found on a number of newer models, mine being a D-9. dBm.
