5 out of 5 stars Excellent Product.......2004-05-06

This is an excellent product! I bought it based on the experience of a friend of mine using the DMG model. The sound is excellent and the design of the hardware. The only thing it miss is: leather case to carry it around and a rugged case to carry the whole thing when u travel. I do not know any place to buy a case for it. Sound is loud enough (specially in a city like Cairo) the remote is enough for me. I rarly use the main unit. I connected it to cheap pair of amplified speakers and the sound was just perfect. Buy it if you did not do that yet!

5 out of 5 stars A lovable gadget.......2003-11-22

I was looking for a good looking, not-too-big not-too-small mp3 player with upgradable memory and most importantly, good sound quality. This player had both, plus plenty of features. Despite it being small and light, really does feel solid and rugged with a nice metallic front.
The player really does run for 24 hours from one AA alkaline battery as it claims, and I got even more from rechargeable 1850mah energiser nimh batteries.
The remote is great, though the joystick is a little fiddly and sensitive, but still felt rugged.
One thing that I felt was missing from the player was the ability to encode directly from an external source.
Overall though I love it and I'l probably buy from MPIO again, though some of the Iriver players look pretty attractive too.

1 out of 5 stars Buyer beware.......2003-10-08

I have a different MP3 from this company, but I need to warn anybody considering a purchase from Digitalway. My MP3 failed within 6 weeks - customer service is impossible to get a hold of, even more difficult to understand than the User Manual, and unwilling to send the return/repair forms. The 120 day warranty is worthless.

5 out of 5 stars Feature Filled Fantastic MP3 Player........2003-08-09

I have purchased other products from digital way and I have always been happy with them. This one was no different. I liked this one so much I bought one for my brother and my dad. The size is phenomenal! Tiny, slick, beautiful little machine. This player is loaded with features but because of its very small size many of the functions are built into the same buttons. This can be a little confusing for the "not so technically minded." The product manuals (entertaining as they are) are poorly written in broken English, so that can be a pain. However, I had no trouble figuring it all out without the manual. It all seemed very natural to me. It plays music very well. I had no trouble with my MP3's like another user said. The digital recorder works great! I used it to record an entire business conference that lasted 6 hours. It is also louder than other players I have owned. Over all this is a great player. I strongly recommend it.

3 out of 5 stars Aesthetically beautiful, operationally mediocre.......2003-08-04

I wanted an MP3 player with a remote and a good set of headphones. This seemed to fit the bill, and reviews for other Digitalway products seemed to ensure I would be happy with my purchase, even if no one had reviewed this yet.

As with other Digitalway manuals, the instructions have no basis in the English language. I know the company is not based in the US, but they have offices in the US, and COULD have rewritten them. This made troubleshooting the player more troublesome. :-(

The size and weight ARE remarkable and the design IS beautiful and "Apple-sque". However, the small size means that many of the buttons have dual functions, and are therefore navigationally tempermental.

For example, in the MP3 mode, to change the Equalizer setting, one needs to access the Power menu (hold the "joystick" down for long [yes ... that's their broken English instructions], then press the "F" button shortly [sigh]). This more often than not brough me back to the FM mode (since pressing the F button for LONG does that).

Also, the sound quality was great on some tracks, woeful on others. Guitar riffs which sounded fine on my PC and CD player were barely audible on the Digitalway, and the headphone/remote connection, though gold-plated, seemed too easy to drop out the "stereo" sound.

I'm hoping for better luck with the FL100.

                          This cable is widely used in the interconnection of audio/video equipment. Even the most common of products can demonstrate AV Link's quality. Using solid PE or foamed PE to insulate, it has a low dielectric constant to ensure low capacitance and to transmit with high fidelity. Spiral shield or multi-layer braiding and 100% conductive PVC shield minimize circuit interference. A magnetic ring and inductance are added to further eliminate interference to signal transmission, thus ensuring a high signal-to-noise ratio.

                          1 out of 5 stars FYI.......2006-04-14

                          I'd just like to say bill you're an idiot, what exactly is Y componet, is it anything like component video? Since s-video and component video use completely different encoding schemes this "crossover cable" you speak of doesn't exist as converting s-video to component requires a transcoder, and would offer no benefit over just using s-video. As far as your "new and improved" DVI connection...how can something be both new and improved, that's a self-defeating statement, and DVI isn't always better than component in every case so better do your homework, like you obviously didn't when you bought bose...if you like the sound quality then whatever floats your boat, but you could have gotten better sound from walmart for around $200. It always saddens me to see someone go out and spend 3 grand on a system that's comparable to a $200 HTIB from walmart, you just wasted $2800 for the little bose sticker on the front of your unit, feel special? I don't mean this to be insulting but to maybe educate people that bose is way overpriced, it's always laughable when i hear someone talking about how bose is the best, newsflash they're nothing more than mediocre and way overpriced for what they do. While i'm on the subject monster cables aren't any better than the $5 cables you get at walmart. I've heard this bose system before at American and it sounded absolutely awful, no midrange or midbass, and over-emphasised bass and treble, no soundstage at all, and practically no inputs for expandability, so there's my review of the system. One question I don't have the answer to is how someone can waste so much money on such trash...honestly? It's a $200 system with a $3000 price tag and everyone blindly buys because they see "ooh it's bose!" pathetic.

                          1 out of 5 stars Highway robbery!.......2004-12-30

                          That anyone would seriously plop down three grand for this joke of a system boggles the mind...oh well, never underestimate the power of advertising, and of outrageous-price-inflation-as-marketing-strategy.

                          My boss bought one of these for his wife this past Christmas, and poor guy---his wife loves the way it looks, but he absolutely hates the way it sounds: tinny treble, weak bass, fuzzy midrange. Sure Bose is great at squeezing things into a tiny pretty package but don't kid yourself, you sacrifice TONS on sound quality, features and functionality. For instance, the main unit offers a ridiculously tiny number of digital inputs on the back, the speaker connections are poor quality, and you can't even set a high-pass filter/crossover but are stuck with the factory setting!

                          This system is OK if you only watch movies with loud explosions every ten seconds, never listen to any music except for maybe rap, and most of all if you don't know a darn thing about home audio and are too lazy to learn. Bose has done everything for you, assuming that you have the sonic discernment of a mudpie, all you have to do is turn the power on, hit the "play" button, and you're off...

                          Which in and of itself is no crime, were it not for the obscene price attached to this system---you can get almost audiophile quality for about half, and similar sound from even the lowest end Sony home theater in a box setup for under two hundred dollars!

                          My boss though has the dough to have real audio equipment for himself in his own separate media room, leaving this ridiculous getup in the living room for his wife, thereby earning boatloads of spousal brownie points in the process.

                          Unless you are so lucky, I'd advise you to look elsewhere.

                          4 out of 5 stars Love the sound and size, Picture Quality VERY POOR.......2004-01-17

                          Hi tec buffs out there. I have had my lifestiles 35 up and running for just over a week now. I do love the sound and I dont complane about midrange of base or anything on the sound of the 35s.just SUPPER HAPPY WITH THAT! I also realy enjoy the size and how they look in my celing and walls. Now for the bad part! The DVD player built in the media center is poor quality. its old tecnoligy. it has realy only a place for S vedio to transfer the vidio signel with. It comes with a special cross over wire that SHOULD let you step up the S vidio to Y COMPONET. I used this crossover wire and got signel drop out from time to time watching a DVD movie. the screen would go black for split seconds at a time. Bose replaced my cross over wire pluse the Media center in hopes of releving the problem but NO LUCK! the black screen continued. I then droped it down to the straight S vidio conection ( NOT USING CROSS OVER WIRE) and it played with no DROP OUT! The problem is in the crossing over from S vidio to Y componet I gess. BUT even when its playing fine I feel the picture quality on the DVDS is poor. It does NOT have progressive scan and I felt it was granney and a bit dark of a picture. I should tell you at the same time I set up the Lifestiles 35 I allso set up a brand new DLP 56" Gateway TV. so all in this system is brand new. Well I did NOT want to give up the sound quality and size of this system so I had to go out and buy the Samsung DVD-HD931. it has TRUE Y componet conection but better than that it has the NEW and IMPROVED DVI conection! My new Gateway 56" DLP has DVI also. I hooked up the new DVD player using the Y componte conections in the same input on my TV to prove witch one was casuing the black screen! There was NO signel drop out NO black screen with the Samsung in the Y componet input on my new gateway DLP TV, NOW I can say for sure the problem is in the Bose or cross over whire to use the Y componet. ( rember I said before, drop it down to s vidio on the media center and it will play with no black screens outs) well hope this helps you Bill
