Summary: My technics changer
Review: Finally this solved my CD storage problems with room to spare, in a dust free environment. Blends in well with my older stereo equipment as if it had been bought along with them. Nice to have the remote to use. Have always been happy with the Technics brand. Gretchen

Summary: Practical Size Changer, Versatile Outputs, Quality Looks
Review: For the average Joe, we don't need 200-300 slots. A 110+1 works great for me. My 45 CD collection fits fine in this changer which holds disc vertically throughout the width of the machine. The attractive blue led lighting gives a classy appearance to the front panel and allows you to glance at the disc holders inside (Why? ) to check your capacity if you don't already know. I never cared for the appearance of many changers that stack the disc in a center bulge the just begs to be scratched. They are so tall too! `The Technics unit blends with its sister componets rather than yelling "Look at me!"The choice of analog and digital outputs allows it to be used in any componet system and allows you to upgrade your receiver later to gain the digital output advantage if you don't have it now. The unit supports Dolby and DTS surround sound as that becomes more common in our music. Features are not lacking in such an affordable deck. Though more than a typical 5 disc unit, it is substanially less than the typical 300 disc changer which is overkill for some of us. The CD TEXT feature will display Artist, Album and Song info from newer encoded disc or you can enter Artist or Album Title manually for older disc. This built in backwards compatibility doesn't leave you feeling so obsolete because you didn't just buy your music this week. Technics includes a photo album like book to place your CD Covers in along with numbers to identify them. The numbers stick on the plastic pockets so you can change your album covers without harm to the cover art. The booklet creates a beutiful display to select from or just admire the art and photos of your favorite artist. Also, even though there is a bit of noise when changing disc(not noticed after a few times), it is a quick change of 11 seconds or less. Once you've done it, there is just no going back to the 1 disc machine! You will need that remote volume control on your receiver as th output seemed to be a bit on the high (loud) side. Like I wrote earlier, I like the style of this unit. I wasn't sure what is was when I first saw it as it is not typical. The whole front folds down for loading with a solid feel and no loose parts to misplace or cluuter the room when somebody forgets to put "their" stack in. Disc can be grouped electronically in a variety of ways (e.g. music style or artist) and even in overlapping groups to alow you to set the mood for the evening. Some groups are preprogrammed, or you can name your own...very versatile. Nice size, complete features, excellent specs (.007 THD 20-20KHz etc.) and truely attractive design at a price that doesn't cause you to ask "what have I got to give up in order to move up to that from a 5 disc changer I was going to get?" made this one of my more exciting buys in audio equipment. Got to go, music is playing...

Summary: Not up to the hype...
Review: Hmmmm. It seems like a safe investment, doesn't it? Technics. Good company. But I've owned mine for a couple of years, and right from the beginning I've had lots of problems. CD's get stuck frequently, and it is NOT a good cd player overall, as some other reviewers here have mentioned, sometimes brand new cd's will skip terribly, so then you check your new album, and lo and behold...no scratch, nothing. And I too have taken mine to a repair shop, where I was finally told, it simply is not a good player. It's not all bad, but these are considerable problems( and if your cd actually does have a scratch, forget it. It's not worth the aggravation you'll go through skipping tracks, even a minute scratch...), and the pretty blue lights just don't make up for it. Don't say you were not warned...

Summary: Not what I was hoping for
Review: I decided to pick this product up after I read a review from consumer reports. They said that this was the best one available. It was supposed to be able to play scratched cd's better then most models. I placed all my cd's in the changer and organized them by groups. I was glad to store most of my music collection in one place, but I have had several problems with this product. It jams up too often when changing discs. It also skips or doesen't play some cd's. I checked the cd's and there were no scrathces on them, so the problem was with the jukebox. When I remove a disc from the player, the artist and album title are erased from the memory and i have to redo all the input. I am not satisfied with this product overall.

Summary: Excelent and reliable unit!
Review: I own this CD changer for over 4 years now and it has always worked flawlessly. The unit I own has a digital-optical output, which I hook up to my receiver for digital transmission. Not sure why a previous reviewer complained about lack of digital out, as my unit has that. I usually have 111 CDs into this unit and abuse of its random playback, etc. It should take me quite a while until I consider replacing this unit as well. It is well worth the money.

Summary: Unreliable
Review: I owned this player for almost two years before it had an irreperable failure. The same goes for the 60 CD version which I also owned for two years before its mechanism jammed and failed. This twice-shy buyer will never again buy a Technics or Panasonic product.

Summary: Lots of Bang for the Bucks
Review: I purchased this mega changer over a year ago for my office and rapidly filled it with CDs. It has played 5 days a week, 8-9 hours a day since then and I have not had one minute's problem with it. I use the full random mode almost exclusively and find that it changes and plays the tracks quickly and quietly. Two complaints: one is that, if power is lost for any reason, the assignment of a disc to a group is lost and you have to redo it which is no small feat. It takes a while to set up the groups but, once done, it is a handy feature. Around the Christmas holiday, for example, I can random play only Christmas music which I have grouped together. However, to resume using the full random mode after Christmas I have to unload those holiday CDs which is a bit of a hassle and that is my second complaint. It would be nice to be able to exclude an entire group from the full random play or to be able to select more than one group at a time to play randomly. Otherwise I think it has been well worth the money and I recommend it to anyone who likes being able to listen to a variety of music/songs without having to handle each CD every time.

Review: I recently purchased this CD changer for our small office. We had a 5 CD changer prior to this and it seemed we just kept hearing the same dics/songs over and over....so predictable it was nauseating. With this changer, we have all loaded some of our favorite CDs and play in Full Random Mode. Now the next song is always a surprise, always fresh and refreshing. We can play all one genre with the Group Play Mode or we can mix it up...Sinatra to Gospel to Reggae. My only suggestion would be to allow personal naming of groups but this is a small sacrifice for this wonderful entertainment machine.
