I got the Bose CD Player "free" with the Bose headphones I purchased. I've exchanged the CD player 3 times and the most recent one I got is not worth what I've spent in batteries to keep it going! I can get about an hour and a half on any battery I've tried (and I've tried many!!). There is no included AC adaptor and the (practically useless) manual included with it does not tell you what type of AC adaptor you need to use with it. The CDs skip when doing anything other than walking gently (even in the No Skip mode) - I don't jog, but have tried using it doing yardwork (blowing leaves, raking grass, mowing). The skips are unbearable. I have a really cheap $20 portable CD that I now use with my $400.00 Bose headphones!...

Most folks don't know that really fine CD Players cost $1000 or more, because of the complicated audio technology actually required to make a "musical device" as opposed to a jog-along laser box. For under $150, there are some outstanding portable players. But that's all they are. High-quality portable players; not audiophile sound gear. With the $400 Bose headphones, which are precise but not especially musical, try a high-end tube headphone amplifier. Once you hear what is really on the CD, and what the earphones can do, you'll be in the market for a high-end tube CD player in the $500 to $1000 range. Just because it's "Bose" doesn't mean it's worth any more than a good Sony or Panasonic walkman. And Bose disowned and discontinued this CD Player very quickly. For the benefit of the justly disgruntled buyer, in tiny print in the manual Bose recommends 6V DC 350MA AC ADAPTER.

I hope some of this helps....

When I Purchased My Quite Comfort 3 Noise Cancelling Headphones Form Bose I Was Really Impressed. So I Figured That If The Headphones Was Amazing, The CD Player Had To Be Too. Man Was I Wrong. Ok I Purchasede My First One From eBay For Like 60 Buck's Including Shipping. So When I Got It In The Mail I Put The Batteries In And Started Using. So About A Month Passes And One Day I Go To Put A CD In, It Won't Do Anything. So I Change The Batteries, Nothing. I Must Have Tried I Know Two Hours I Know Trying To Fix It. So Anyway I Think Well Mabe I Just Got A Bad One, So I Go On Amazon This time And Find Another One For Like 50 Buck's. I Get It In The Mail And Basicly The Same Thing Happens To It About Two Months Later. I've Had Alot Of CD Players, And Usually One Lasts Me On The Average 1 To 2 Years. Never Have I Had One Do This. I Currnetly Have A 16 Dollar One I Bought From Wal-mart. It's A Shame When One That Costs 16 Dollars Is Better That A 60 Dollar One. I Like Bose, They Are A Great Company And Have Very High Quality Products, But This Is One That They Should Really Be Ashamed Off. They Can Do Alot Better Than That....
