I found it realy strange: unit cost about 300 $ and have unuseble function like line out. Which way i can use that "stereo effect"? In headphones it unnessesory but for simulate real speakers, but what hell its doing in line out? Simulate speakers on speakers or to enchance copy that i need? Why it have no reverb and distorsion that i love so much?! Seems like some people would love to show cheep electronics with hi-fi or hi-end label on it, of coz for same hi-fi price. May be I am blind? P.S. + USB 1 speed and eject button and ... - seems like sony's leading in portable audio segment goin to zero.
