Creative ZEN Black ( 16 GB ) Digital Media Player

Best MP3 player ever!

The ZEN is made by Creative, the company that makes Sound Blaster sound cards. The best computer sound card ever made. So it is no surprise that the ZEN also has great performance and sound quality.r>I have 2GB, 4GB, 8GB, 32GB and now the 16GB model.
I convert CDs and albums to Windows Media files at high quality size, and sink them to my ZEN. The sound is just as good as the CD. And most CDs I can get the CD cover so it is easy to view on the ZEN. But for size you can convert as MP3s, smaller file size but you loose some sound quality. And again most will retrieve CD cover, easy to view in Albums view on ZEN.
It is not easy replacing the Lithium battery, it has 2 wire leads soldered on to the CPU board, but with practice you can get good at repairs to the ZEN.
I use the Creative Wave HD speaker and Bose Noise Cancelling head phones and Bose ear corns with my ZENs, unbelievable sound quality. And the ZEN can give a signal to my Bose Noise Cancelling head phones that will blast your ears if you like it loud!!Read full review

Quality that's not made anymore

These are hard to get - not made anymore. As with many quality items, they have been taken off the market for "improved" items that don't work. This does exactly what it claims, and with excellent fidelity. The video is great for the size, and the device has built-in software to convert video to play on it. Buy one if you can find one.Read full review

My favorite MP3 player!!!!

The Zen Creative is a great player. It's easy to use, easy to add songs and can be expanded by adding more memory. The battery life is good and it got a very attractive body!

This is one of the most treasured possessions I own - My Creative Zen 16G mp3 Player

I listen to mp3 books from the library. This mp3 player has 10 different bookmarks. I can keep track exactly where I was the day before. I have one that has lasted over 5 years! I love this thing!
