Like others that purchesed this unit, I had some problems with it until the bios 3.16 was installed. Once done, you can't help but be shocked by the excellent sound quality this player's delivering. Way better than anything owned before!       » READ MORE

 Rated by Igor_P, October 1, 2008

Don't even think of using this device without first going to Cowon America's website and upgrading the firmware to the latest version (at the time of this review, that's version 3.16). The instructions on Cowon's website are clear and the upgrade takes less than 5 minutes. The firmware that the U5 comes pre-installed with (v1.0) is practically unusable (inconsistent interface, system lockups). After the upgrade, the U5 becomes a first-rate player.       » READ MORE
