I think this player is undeservedly overlooked, and that's why.

The player, with its modest size, has everything that an ordinary listener needs: a flexible playlist, visual effects, skins, support for all common formats of compressed and uncompressed music, excellent sound quality, portability.

I want to note that although the player is not the most popular (the Demo blog will change this position), it has a huge library of cool skins that change the look beyond recognition. It can be standard, like Winamp,

or even as minimal as possible.

But no matter what guise it takes, the player still remains very fast, very convenient, flexibly customizable.

If you dig into the settings, you can find configurable hotkeys, a ten-band equalizer, plug–ins for audio playback and output - all in a beautiful and simple package.

Although the interface is English, to understand — just spit, because there are no complex commands and menus. The player is portable (it took 2 megabytes on a flash drive), undemanding (10 megabytes of RAM in active mode),

works in all Windows, from 95 to Vista, can be controlled from the tray.

For those who like small, portable programs – Xion Audio Player, I recommend you to familiarize yourself. I also advise you not to pass by Quintessential Player, Spider Player, iCoolPlayer, CoolPlayer, AIMP, and of course XMPlay – excellent, free, mostly portable, miniature music players that the Demo Blog reviewed.
