High Quality Sound 20GB Karma Under $160 I actually went through one of these already, but as it's refurbished I knew I was taking a small chance, and the first one's volume button was smashed in. What I learned is that Amazon has perhaps the best returns system I ever seen. They sent out the replacement before the return got to them, and they gave me a UPS label to send it back.So on to the player, the Rio Karma is quite small, smaller than an iPod but thicker. The player support FLAC (Free Lossless Audio Codec), which is the main reason I bought it, so I can convert all my CDs once and for all. I'm not going to get into too much detail, but the player management software, the controls on the player itself, and the battery life are all great, the best I've used in fact. Even better, the sound quality is fantastic. There is a nice powered cradle with RCA outputs, and good earbuds come with the player, I think they're supposed to be Sennheisers. At the price, I just can't see anything better than this, especially when I consider Rio's emphasis on the sound quality. When I add in the fact that the dock also has an ethernet connection and the player can act as some kind of web server, there's just no contest.
