1 out of 5 stars Brand new Archos 2 makes my laptop crash   August 15, 2010
imdeep3
First of all the player looks decent enough and the packaging it came in too was not bad.
However the touch screen was not as responsive as expected. I had a lot of problems navigating to the correct icon and song.
Then when I tried to attach the player to my Laptop to copy some songs, I instantly got a memory dump blue screen and my laptop restarted.
This has been happening all the time and the player makes my laptop crash every time i connect it to the laptop.
I have still not been able to resolve this problem.
Sadly I had to leave for my country the day after I received the package and I have no idea how to go about resolving it now.
Anybody facing the same issue can you please guide me through any solution to this problem.
Is this a hardware defect in the player or what else could be wrong with it.



2 out of 5 stars Misleading matertial   June 24, 2010
Ralph N. (So Carolina)
The manual was very hard to follow. Never sure which area refered to my product. Tech support was inadaquite to say the least. Eventually they said the product was defective I think just to get me off the phone. The best I can say about the whole experience was the hassle free Amazon return policy.
Buyer beware of yhis product.

Great player. Happy with controls. I used this player for about two weeks. I just sent it back because it does not output enough bass. I was listening to a song I know well and something was missing so I compared it by playing the same song with my old player through the same car stereo - big difference. I emailed Archos and they said they were sorry. I started to investigate and it turns out that this player is likely manufactured under EU regulations that limit the decibels. I hope the American government doesn't start regulating our mp3 players in the future.

Sansa has a comparable unit in this price range and I have already ordered it. Amazon was great as always, BTW. The Archos arrived much quicker than stated in great condition and the return was quick and easy, but the decibel limitation was not advertised.

Thanks Amazon



4 out of 5 stars Very good but not perfect   April 19, 2010

I have order several popular mp3 players. This was the only one that kept the music together in the files that I transferred. It saved much searching for the songs that I wanted to hear. The down side is the slider bar to move through the menu list. Once I got use to it, it was OK but I preferred the rotating dial method. All things considered, I like this unit and it was the right price for the value.


5 out of 5 stars great for the $$$$$   April 14, 2010

I bought the Archos 2 for my wife to use while she's at work, she loves it. Its easy to understand and operate, comfortably compact, but there is one thing that was wrong in the product description. It does not have a FM transmitter as indicated, so you cant transmit your music to a car or other sound systems. However it does have a FM receiver and it works great. I have and older Archos mp3 player and its worked flawlessly for many years.
