The noise in the background does not come from the equipment but from an air conditioner! The device is only noise from when it should, then also in impressive quality and better than many portable CD player :). The Music Angel generally makes a high quality impression. The service is fine. I certainly can recommend this product. If you are wondering about a scratched screen, has probably not yet removed the screen overlay. This is in any case difficult to see and difficult to solve, because it closes exactly with the outer edges.
