Sony’s lightweight SRFM80V S2 Sports Walkman fits snugly into a supplied wrap-around arm band for hands-free listening during workouts or travel. The radio’s ergonomic S2 Sports design places all function controls for easy access, and its LED is conveniently angled for easy reading when you’re on the run. Furthering its suitability for athletic training, the SRFM80V includes a stop watch with a single-button split timer. And, if you’d rather not wear the device on an arm, just affix the built-in belt clip to a waistband.
Radio features include drift-free digital tuning across the weather, TV (VHF channels 2 to 13), and AM/FM stereo bands. And with the SRFM80V, weather is no obstacle–its water-resistant design blocks out moisture, and dirt (though do keep in mind that it’s not made for submersion in water). A local/distant (DX) switch optimizes reception of both near and distant stations, and a power-off timer shuts off the Walkman at your preset time to conserve battery life. The arm band includes a safety reflector. Five-direct-key preset memory lets you electronically tune in to any five stations set–even in different frequency bands–with the press of a single, easy-to-reach button, while a separate direct weather button offers one-button tuning of weather bands.
You’ll also enjoy conveniences like 25-station preset memory (five for TV, five for weather, 10 FM, and five AM), Sony’s low-end-enhancing Mega Bass Sound System, and two-AAA-battery operation (batteries not included). Supplied Sony MDR (micro dynamic receiver) vertical-type sports headphones deliver wide dynamic range and clear sound.

The operation and unusual design of it took lots of getting used to, so I put it in a draw and forgot about it for 4 years. I have a collection of …
Customer Review: Despite Flaws, I Have Few Complaints
Despite the low ratings that other reviewers have given the Sony SRF-M80V S2, I’ve been pretty pleased with mine. It’s lasted a few years (like the other Sony Walkmen that I’ve had), and this one especially took some abuse mountainbiking and continues to work wonders. The arm band’s nice, but I clip… More info / Buy Now
