IRiver IMP-400 SlimX Review

- WHAT'S HOT: The trim IMP-400 is elegantly styled, with a silver metallic finish and a tapered, circular design. Its sound quality, delivered through the included wraparound headphones, was excellent in our tests. Intended to be used with its remote control, the player lacks navigation buttons on its case; there is, however, a wheel for handling play, fast-forward, and rewind functions without the remote. In addition to playing MP3, WMA, and ASF files, the IMP-400 recognizes .M3U playlist files, which means you can create multiple playlists for use on any given disc. Also included is an easy-to-scan FM tuner. An unusual bundled extra: cassette and 12-volt power adapters for use with a car stereo.

    Duration of ownership:

    Strengths: Great Display, Good Battery Life, doesn't skip

    Weaknesses: No display on Cd player, must use remote to control

    Overall Evaluation: This is a great CD player that does everything and more. It has an FM tuner, plays mp3s and wma files, and the display on the remote is nice and backlit with 4 lines. It even has the ability to upgrade firmware to support new file formats (like ogg vorbis or flac). I have really been enjoying this player.
