- DNE511 good value.......but a few weak points.
I'd have to say....this is one of my favourite Portable CD players I have owned. The sound quality is crisp and clear, while the portablility is descent as well. It is however a dedicated portable CD player......meaning no line out for those who would like to make it their mini Hi-Fi and connect their speakers. Okay, yes, you can connect the them via the headphone socket, but the max volume output is soo rediculously low you might as well just stick in earphones. As for the functions.....the Jog Dial is aalright but can be very annoying when keeping it in your jacket at school whilst listening to a track in class, and when you need to turn it off or switch the tracks you realize the jog-dial menu is up. But, that is very unlikely to happen. All In All, for the price it is a good quality piece of kit that will have your ears praising from the good sound quality.

- Convenient and solid
This is a great piece of kit. I bought it before embarking on a backpacking trip because I wanted to bring as much music with me as possible, and being able to create ATRAC/MP3 discs was a huge advantage. With ATRAC, I used the best quality sample rate & still got around 10 standard Cd's per 800Mb disc.
The player is as easy to use as other Sony CD players, the sound quality is excellent (although the sample rate for some ATRAC & MP3 albums can affect this) and the display is handy. Not only does it display track information for encoded CD's, it also displays information for certain music CD's (especially those from the Sony/Columbia stable!).
Another advantage is that its quite a solid model, I've lost count of how many times I dropped it! But it's going strong. Regular AA batteries have a good long life with this machine too, and it came with a mains adaptor.
Overall, this really is a great player, perfect for most peoples requirements. I'd recommend using MP3 as opposed to ATRAC (I got some distortion on ATRAC Cd's), and as it also gives the user the option to play regular CD's it covers all bases.
Rating: - hours of entertainment, i reccomend this product..
i bought this player a while ago, and i'm am nothing but pleased so far, origionally i was looking for an MP3 player, but this is a GREAT alternate, altho i have not tested the software that comes with it, i used Nero6 express.. the quality good, i heard someone say about the earphones supplied were not loud enough, but i use some from my old player anyway. overall i think this is a great player at a really decent price, in my opinion totally worth buying! (its great to have a few hundred songs on one CD and battery power last very long!)

Rating: - Fantastic Sony Atrac/MP3 DNE511 CD Player
I was amazed to receive my new CD player yesterday morning. I ordered it at 4pm the day before and received it the next day at 9.30am. Fantastic service!!
My only disappointment is the FREE Carry case which only has a waist belt. I hate putting things like that round my waist and it would have been better to have a removable strap that could go over your shoulder as well.
Having said all that - the actual CD and software is amazing. Simple and intuitive to use has several options and is just perfect for the price.
I spent lots of time trawling the internet for an MP3 player and this just outclasses them all. I could have paid double and got a few extra features such as back lite - but this is all I needed for my travels.
I don't understand the comments about the volume not being very loud. On full volume I have been deafened! And as for the fiddly buttons, its not different from most mobile phones and I can work the Sony buttons really easily.
If anyone is hesitating, don't! For the price, it's worth every penny.
