My experience with the Jukebox 6000.

by bballerdean , Jul 25 '03
Pros: Stores 6000 minutes of music, comes with rechargeable batteries.
Cons: Heavy, big, doesn't always work.
LATEST UPDATE (05/21/05): I wrote this review a very long time ago and still stick with it. I just wanted to add that now I have the Apple iPod mini and it is amazing. I couldn't be more happy with that product. ______________________ THE ...

Inexpensive 6GB MP3 Player

by lynus Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 200, Mar 06 '01
Pros: 100 hours of music storage, inexpensive, USB connection
Cons: Requires Windows 98 Special Edition, too big to use while out running.
I wished the Archos Jukebox 6000 was around last Christmas for I would of asked for it, instead of the Rio 500. Besides being capable of handling approximately 100 hours of tunes, and being relatively small, the 6000 street price is only $350. $150...

All the Music I want...

by mookiekong Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Sep 30 '01
Pros: 6GB of music in the palm of my hand
Cons: Cheap and cheezy silver coating on buttons
This could possibly be the perfect music player. When I reviewed the original Archos Jukebox, I had a lot of complaints about the unit. When I saw this new jukebox+recorder on the market I was skeptical. I picked up the new Archos Recorder because...

The Best By Far!!!

by artiste , Aug 12 '01
Pros: easy to use, stores allot of music
Cons: none
I am very impressed with Archos Jukebox 6000. It's main competitors are Nomad Jukebox from Creative Labs and the Remote Solution Personal Jukebox PJB 100. All of these devices use a hard drive to store MP3 music for portable playback. Archos is...

Archos Jukebox 6000: mp3 heaven?

by splitsurround , May 22 '01
Pros: MASSIVE amount of space, software rocks.
Cons: the headphones suck, it's not QUITE loud enough at times...
Much like y'all, I browsed around Epinions.com, as well as cnet.com when I was in the market for an mp3 player. The long and short of it is that most of them are the same: tiny, extremely portable, with between 32-128 (occasionally 256) MB of storage...

Only a few problems separate this device from true greatness

by derek_g , Nov 23 '02
Pros: Massive storage! Decent battery life. Good sound. Inexpensive compared to others.
Cons: Tech support nonexistent. Slow FF/Rew. Cheap headphones. Reliability suspect.
This was my luxury item courtesy of the tax rebate (thanks George!) and as you can see I'm doing my best to help keep the economy propped up. I've owned it for over a year now and it still runs strong. However, this unit has received a number of...

Perfect in theory

by ctoffer , Jun 10 '02
Pros: Encodes MP3 from microphone or cd-player, hundreds of hours
Cons: Difficult to operate, heavy, buggy, noisy recording
This is it, I thought the first time I saw the Archos Jukebox Recorder (ARJ), finally an MP3 player that can record directly from CD-players and microphones. These features were the only reason I had bought a minidisk recorder one year ago. Now I had to...

Someone finally got it right...

by antjenkins , Feb 27 '01
Pros: Storage space, Size, Price, Functionality, Durability, Support
Cons: Storage space (it's never quite enough, is it?), High bit rate files
Remember in The Matrix, when Neo watches Morpheus jump across the building and says "Whoa!"?

That's how I felt when I found the Archos Jukebox 6000.

The Archos is the FOURTH portable MP3 player I've owned since mid 1998. At first,...

An OK harddrive based MP3 player

by mookiekong Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Mar 07 '01
Pros: 6gb of MP3s in the palm of your hand.
Cons: Questionable sound quality, strange control scheme, quality issues.
The Archos Jukebox 6000 at first looks like a great little box. It's the size of a Palm device, it's light, it has a 6gb harddrive for lots of music, and it acts like a harddrive. But once I got to using the machine the small problems started to come...

Much better than solid state MP3 players

by european , Feb 08 '03
Pros: Compact, inexpensive, software upgradeable
Cons: Relatively short battery life, Mechanical construction, standard software
I have owned the Archos 6000 player for close to 8 months now and I have made many comparisons with other players. I am also knee-deep in MiniDisc technology so I feel fairly confident that I can make a meaningful judgment.

If you do not want...

Great features and price-tag but quality lets it down.

by alexworden , Sep 16 '02
Pros: Good sound, long battery life, massive storage capacity, usable interface
Cons: Locks up, buggy firmware, gaps between songs.
First off - The image shown above is of the old model. The new 'RECORDER' model has better quality buttons, function buttons, and a higher resolution display (which all make it much more user-friendly).

So far I've had two of the same model...

To buy or not to buy?

by mikezepato , Apr 12 '01
Pros: Great storage capabilities and easy interface
Cons: Somewhat lagging software, playlists are limited
The Jukebox 6000 is a 6GB hard drive based mp3 player made by the computer company Archos. It seems that many of the hard drive based mp3 players that come out are made by computer companies rather than companies that have already created a lot of audio...

To dispute an ealier opinion from me.

by audioplanets , Jun 24 '01
Pros: Nothing is good since this thing only lasts 2 weeks.
Cons: Made in China products will never last.
I bought my archos jukebox 6000 about 2 weeks ago. I always kept it in good condition and never have I dropped it on the ground. Yesterday I was in my car and using this product with a car set that I have. Everything was working fine until we hit a...

The Best 6GB MP3 Player on the market (no longer the Creative Jukebox)

by nickelzy , Sep 21 '01
Pros: Size; Battery-Life; Good Headphones; Easy to Download Songs to
Cons: Battery Door is Ridiculous to Open; Buttons questionable on durability; Instruction Manual is a joke
I wrote an article a few weeks ago on the Creative Nomad Jukebox. The Review Title at that time was "The Best 6GB MP3 Player on the market (so far). Well, so far has passed in time thanks to the NEW Archos HD-MP3. It is in my opinion better than the...

Tight little package that offers what others can't.

by Sarv , Feb 28 '01
Pros: Size, weight, storage capacity, portable hard drive
Cons: Unattractive, pain to get batteries out, updating firmware not easy
For many years now, I've followed the MP3 portable player world. Ever since I purchased my first player, the Diamond Rio 300, a couple years back, I loved having the ability to take my music anywhere I wanted without worrying about quality of sound or...
