I would recommend a mp3 player that is flashed memory based vs. a hard drive based (ipod/zune 80-120gb). Because of all of the vibration is not good for small moving parts in a hard drive pased player.

I agree with Dyebartdie; you want something that does not have a hard drive to it (the bigger ipods).

I've tried two different flashbased mp3 players on mine an both had the same prolem. They limit the output level on the headset jack and even at full volume on the Harmon Kardon you can barely hear at highway speeds. I think the ipod allows you to adjust this, so I'm trying that next.

Have you turned up your Nano Ronjo? On mine I think I went into options, and turned on a setting to let me max the Volume, the default left a lot on the table you weren't able to use, mines louder than my CD's now! Hope this helped some
wonder if this does help?
