1: wonderful - only one bad point, but it can be avoided
Good points:
1) It is the NASB.
2) No drama, just a man speaking the Word of God
3) Sturdy case to hold all those CDs
4) Low cost in comparison to other CDs
5) Clear pronunciation
6) No defects in any of the CDs
7) Both the Old and New Testaments on CDs
8) If you lose or damage a CD, you can get a replacement for a modest shipping charge.
Bad point:
There are introductions to each book, and these introductions are not the Word of God. Unfortunately, those introductions (as with any Bible commentary) will influence your understanding in a negative way if you listen to them. When a book of the Bible begins, I press the "move to the next track" button on my CD player in order to avoid listening to the introduction. I recommend you do the same.
If you Google the narrator's name (Stephen Johnston), then you should be able to find some audio samples, so you can listen to him before you purchase this item. I did.
I listen to these CDs while driving, and sometimes at home. What a blessing. Praise God.

2: Workable, but not great
This version of the Bible is one of my favorites, so even though I had the NIV on CD, I thought it was worth the extra to pick up the NASB. The product was workable, but disappointing. The narrator doesn't read as if he understands what he's reading; it's almost like one of the computer voices. And I just find that disturbing.
If it means anything, I had the opposite problem with my NIV on CD, where one of the narrators seemed overly dramatic and while varying his tone and intensity, seemed to do so in some odd places. So it's possible that I'm just hard to please.
In any case, the price on this product makes it a low risk, and you do get the whole Bible twice -- once at 128k (bps?), the other at 64k. Hard to complain too much.

3: NASB AUDIO BIBLE
IF YOU'RE INTEREST IS AN AUDIO BIBLE JUST PLAINLY READ, THIS WOULD BE THE PERFECT ITEM FOR YOU!
