4 out of 5 stars Exellent Product, but why so much?   May 5, 2008
S. Turner (UK)
I bought this product for use with my Vision M. Having read previous reviews I was expecting it to be good, but the sound quality for a unit this size is brilliant. My whole music collection sounds great played through it.

The only reason I haven't rated this 5 stars is the price. Why is the Z500 almost twice the price of the i500 which is basically the same unit?

5 out of 5 stars magnificent piece of kit   December 22, 2007

Finally got my hands on one of these units after struggling for weeks and weeks trawling the internet all over europe and as far as singapore and hong kong and everywhere I went - SOLD OUT or unavailable. Bought this one absolutely brand new over the internet from an outfit in Belgium and they shipped it over to Essex for 5 euros !!!!
What a fabulous piece of kit this is, excellent sound and build quality, I've got what I paid for here and don't regret a single penny of it, absolutely brilliant.
One thing I had to do before using the system for it to work properly was to upgrade the "firmware" in the mp3 player from version 1.40.02 up to 1.62.02. Took about 10 mins from the creative.com website and now it's all singing and dancing, so if you do have a few hiccups then check the firmware in the player.
IF you can find one anywhere then don't hesitate - BUY IT !!!



1 out of 5 stars A problem with the volume control   November 6, 2007

I ordered this PlayDock as a present and had to return it and its replacement due to a fault - when you turn the volume up high, it turns itself back down. Amazon no longer sell this product themselves, you will get it from a marketplace seller if you buy it, so be sure to check their returns policy in case you experience the same. Amazon were great - it didn't cost me a penny to return, DHL were excellent in collecting the package both times and promptly returning it to Amazon.
Aside from this problem with the sound, the PlayDock was EXACTLY what was wanted, so we look forward to the problem getting sorted out!

OK, you don't have a lot of choice when it comes to speaker docks for "not Ipods", but this is still a superb piece of kit, and essential if you have a ZVM.

It looks great, it sounds fantastic, its portable and its properly kitted out! With an FM aerial, a video out cable (visual only, but I already have a full one from my accessory pack) and an audio cable so you can play nearly anything through it, you really are getting value for money.

The only minor problem, which I'm sure is universal for docks, is that I have to take the skin off my player in order to get it to fit in the dock. Hardly the end of the world and its nice to see my ZVM's good looks again!

Overall: essential for your ZVM, and at this price ( 100) why not?
