Summary: Superb Value for the money
Review: I was looking for a new hi-tech look for my modern dining room. Most good looking units were $399 and up. I visited Scott's website - they look like they turn out quality products - so I decided to give the 3D vertical audio a try. Good decision! In addition to beina g a very attractive solid unit, it produces excellent sound. The glass doors enclosing the discs work noiselessly, and the audio produced, using a 4 option tone control, is excllent. Buy one - you won't be disappointed.

Summary: Uniquely Styled, Impressive features, Excellent Bargain!
Review: I went looking for something contemporary and different for my bedroom. Started out by looking at some units by Sharper Image and other brands such as Sony, Emerson and RCA. The prices varied from [price range] for single disk units, in some cases [price] and higher for 3 disk units.

In comparing the units I found that even though the other brands advertised 3 disks or more, in certain instances not all the units had independent CD drives and relied on a rotating carousel or a moving CD head unit. This looked neat when switching disks but increased the time delay playing between CDs. With the independent CD Drives on the Scott unit, playing between CDs are almost instantaneous.

The Unit itself is designed pretty solidly. From the smooth motion sensing - translucent blue glass door, to its cool blue backlit display and to the firm buttons on the control panels. Another plus, was the unit came equipped with AUX IN, Line Out and to top it off a Digital Out Jack so you can hook up a minidisk or CD recorder to the unit.

The Remote was designed to fit neatly in you hands with all the main function buttons within thumb reach. The only button that is missing from the remote is the sleep function, which is located on the unit anyway.

The Audio is pretty good for a unit of this price. On the other hand if you like deep bass you might want to get a powered sub and connect it via the Line Out jacks. The preset equalizer does a decent job.

Overall this is a great unit, if they had slapped the Sony or JVC label on there I would have believed it. The only caveat I have is the speaker design, could have been a little bit more aesthetically designed, but for the price I still gave it 5 stars. I am happy with this purchase and I am sure will be too. Go ahead... Get one... or two ....

Summary: 1 disc player worked sporadically
Review: Looks nice and has nice features. I typically don't write review but in this case I had to return the stereo because disc 1 did not work. The player at times just would not recoginize and play a disc in disc 1. The doors had to be openned and closed for it to work then the tracks would still cut in and out. I've returned this one for a replacement. I hope this one works better!
