empeg Mark II 8/10 - 18/09/2000 13:52

Anandtech just posted their review of the Mark II player, and did a great review of it. They did score the price low, but their scoring scheme makes it so features and such will help counteract price. Overall it got an 8 out of 10, and informs any reader why it deserves this score. The nice thing is that he also had the history of where it came from, and goes indepth on the use of both the empeg and emplode. Much better then the Fresh Gear review, and I hope they see it.

BTW, the reviewer of the Mark II and other MP3 products on Fresh Gear is very excited with the Nomad Jukebox player, and will probably give it high marks, even though it's price is still expensive on their standards.

This is a very thorough and very fair review. They didn't just sit back and gush fulsome praises about the empeg, but every flaw and every nit they picked was legitimate and accurate.

It is to guys@empeg's great credit that almost all of the flaws pointed out in the review have either already been addressed or are in the immediate process of being taken care of.
