Sony CD Walkman D-FJ61 - CD player Review

I bought this Walkman brand new at least seven years ago for a hefty price, and it was worth every penny. I used it at least five times per week whilst walking, and it never gave me any problems whatsoever. The sound quality was wonderful, unlike the others I have used since this one died after getting rained on one evening.I think it would have played for several more years otherwise, which is quite significant as every other Walkman I owned never lasted much more than one year, they never wanted to repair any of them that did stop working. This was a gem of a Walkman, and I wish I could find another one brand new and unopened. As one reviwer of another more recent model quite correctly stated, the quality of portable CD players over the last few years has plummeted. People seem to be swayed more by bells and whistles than by what is really important: sound quality and product longevity.
