RCA LYRA RD2763 MP3 player

Date Published: 8/20/08

The RCA LYRA RD2763 is a hard-drive MP3 player that includes a few surprises. This 5GB player is compatible with MP3, WMA and WMA DRM-protected files. It also is certified by PlaysForSure to play protected downloads and songs from music subscription services. With its USB 2.0 port, the RD2763 allows you to transfer files with drag-and-drop ease from a PC or Mac.

The RD2763 has a distinct out-of-the-box advantage over many other MP3 players, as it comes with an FM transmitter to play your songs on any FM receiver. Simply plug the adapter into a car's power outlet (cigarette lighter), and with the transmitter's retractable cord/antenna, the sound from the player is transmitted to your car stereo or any other nearby FM radio.

Unlike many ultra-compact digital audio players, the RD2763 has a very detailed 8-line, 1-1/2-inch LCD display that makes navigating through your MP3 folders a breeze. The system has a built-in rechargeable lithium-ion battery. With its attractive screen and included FM transmitter, the RD2763 is a quality MP3 player, especially if you want to listen to your digital library while on the road.
