I 'sampled' a few tracks online from a certain CD, went out and bought the CD and simply playing it in the car I could hear detail that had been masked by the the mp3 conversion ! It pretty much stunned me actually since so much more detail was revealed. Remember, a Saab is a pleasantly quiet environment to listen in. ;-) Mp3s work by eliminating supposedly inaudible detail and this was a very detailed track - so I guess something gave. > Of course, it plays normal audio CD's too. I got my current radio/cd player - Aiwa CDC-R237 - cheap ( 1/2 price - £60 ) on account of its successor being identical other than playing mp3s too. Have to laugh at the claimed 180 Watts rating though - usual inflated car stereo numbers. Graham
