Well you can't beat the price from BestBuy on this one, $10, but that's about it. I'm soryy I just don't think the fella's had their heart in this performance.

After the second listen with my XA777ES warmed up my reaction would have to be, "Good to Very Good". I only recognized 2 songs from the music itself without looking at the track list.
