Great Sound, but.....

by RedNote251 , Nov 02 '00
Pros: Great sound, look, practicality, quality
Cons: low in memory
The Diamond Rio 600 is a great mp3 player. I bought it because it has great sound and because of it's catchy look. The only problem is that it only has 32 megs of memory, which is a big setback. I don't think this mp3 player would be good for working...

One Of The Top 3 Players For Sure!

by rolodex , Apr 13 '01
Pros: Small size, great sound, Cool shape
Cons: Still searching for cons.
I was in Comp USA one day. I saw a guy with this little package with what I thought was a blue/purple radio. I asked the man what it was that he was about to purchase. He told me that it was an mp3 player. He told me that the player was manufactured by a...

Is it worth the hassle?

by boyslie870 , Apr 14 '03
Pros: Sexy, small and portable
Cons: Took 2 replacements to get one working, small memory
My story with this sexy little MP3 player lasts around a year. I got it as a Christmas present, and as a special offer was given extra memory, to increase it to 32mb, firstly this memory only arrived in Feburary, but until then everthing was working...

Overall, very pleased

by sgmoore , Mar 14 '02
Pros: battery life, design, sound quality, wma format
Cons: software, proprietary memory, availability
Despite having had some problems with my Rio 600, I am pleased. I had to send it back b/c the backlighting stopped working, but Rio was accommodating, and fixed it, although a little slowly.

The design is wonderful, it's easy to use, it's...

Rio 600 Good but could be better

by kickme_now , Feb 09 '01
Pros: The Rio 600 is very small and portable.
Cons: The Rio 600 does not hold a lot of songs
The Rio 600 by Diamond is a very nice MP3 player. The Rio is smaller than most other MP3 players. My Rio is nice due to the fact that you can get upgrades in storage for it, but that cost a little too much for me. The Rio 600 is great because you can...

Nice piece of kit with little to fault it

by g23t54s , Nov 25 '01
Pros: Cheap enough and a high quality piece of gadgetry
Cons: The faceplates are a rip off! £20 for three Virgin Megastores were asking!
Having paid £120 (GBP) for this at Our Price I thought I'd netted myself a bargain. Until I checked out amazon.co.uk's web site a month later and saw the 64 Mb version for a fiver extra. But you win some, you lose some I suppose. This DAP is more win...

Battery Sucker 101

by Cyanne , Dec 13 '00
Pros: wonderful for students, studying, travel
Cons: nicks easily, battery gulper, more memory needed
Honestly, I love my Rio. But sweet Jesus, how many batteries can this thing suck down in a week? I rarely turn mine on, but despite even that, this uses an insane amount of battery power. I just actually pulled mine out of my purse the other day, turned...

Rio 600 not pick of the litter

by bboemmel , Oct 09 '03
Pros: Great design on earphones, good display
Cons: Shut off frequently. Earphones stopped working after frequent use
I received the Rio 600 as a gift and used it frequently to work out with. It was the first mp3 player that I have ever owned and worked well for a couple of weeks. That's when the problems started. To start out with, this particular model only has ...

Nifty

by kurtsgurl7 , Feb 17 '01
Pros: lightweight
Cons: funny headphones
The Diamond player is nice and light. It was very good CD quality sound which I enjoy very much. I also like how is it particularly easy to use and learn the functions. I have been using mine for about 4 months now and I really enjoy it. I have...

I'm Listening

by davecip , Jan 21 '01
Pros: Excellent Portability, Quality Sound
Cons: Not Much Memory
The Rio 600 is one of the best mp3 players on the market today. It is small and easy to use, and transports music from your computer to your hand in almost no time at all. It comes with a nifty case that attaches to your belt making it easy to carry...

Not ready for prime time.

by scooterbos , Nov 28 '00
Pros: Attractive, easy to use
Cons: Two defective units in a row - it doesn't work
Unfortunately, I have to retract my previous recommendation of the Sonic Blue (formerly known as S3/Diamond) Rio 600. The original unit would simply stop dead, without warning, in the middle of playback. Sometimes I could get it to start working again,...

Woof!

by watsondog , Jul 09 '01
Pros: Lightweight, small, ergonomic, inexpensive.
Cons: The buggiest software I have ever had the displeasure of using
The Rio 600 is attractive, comfortable to carry, and the price is certainly right (less than $200 Canadian). Unfortunately, the software that ships with the Rio which you're supposed to use to upload your mp3s and wma files, Rio Audio Manager, is buggier...

large audio in a small player

by snowboarder717 , Aug 11 '00
Pros: it is portable, lightweight, and great sound
Cons: the memory expansions haven't come out yet
MP3 players are the newest technology in music and this great product from Diamond Rio is the newest technology in portable MP3 players. Although the unit only comes with 32 MB, but it is upgradeable to almost 370 MB. I have had this player for...

Waste of money.

by seydel , May 25 '01
Pros: Stylish design.
Cons: Player stops working.
When I purchased my Rio600 back in December,
I couldn't have been happier- well, 32MB wasn't
enough space. But ease of use, portability, sound
quality, and battery life were all outstanding. Then
the player inexplicably stopped...

I like it!

by hiruu , May 05 '02
Pros: Nice interface, great software, and lovely sound!
Cons: Memory pack crap!
Well, I listen to my advice and got a RIO instead. It's amazing that I paid the same price for my RIO as I did for my crappy D-Link DMP110. The two players are lightyears apart in quality and value.

The software for my RIO is great, and...
