Save your money if you want to record albums

byiloverocknroll Dec 24, 2003
13 Helpfuls 14 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros I guess it makes a nice CD player, with the 5 slots for CD's.
Cons Too unreliable to use to burn CD's from analog sources (tapes and albums).
Recommended it? No

I was horribly disappointed with this equipment. I have over 100 great old albums from the 60's and 70's that I wanted to put onto CD's. I used the SONY Music CD-R's, so there would be no compatibility issues, but in 9 attempts I burnt 7 coasters and 2 CD's. Halfway thru recording the machine would... Read full review »

Very solid, easy to program

10 Helpfuls 11 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Solid quality, easy to program, lots of features on remote control
Cons No high speed copying available for single track.
Recommended it? Yes

Sony have a winner here. The 5-disc changer works smoothly and faster than others I've used. Overall I like the quality of this machine. By comparison I recommend a "pass" on Philips models.

Sony have added "manual track advance" to their more recent models. You can now copy to CD analog... Read full review »

The sound quality on this unit is amazing.

PROS:

I am very impressed with the sound quality. I was using an old Sony ES single-CD player, and a standard Sony CD changer before that. The standard Sony CD changer, in retrospect, sounded pretty poor. The... Read full review »

Very Poor Quality

bystereodctr Sep 2, 2006
5 Helpfuls 6 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Sounds good when it plays.
Cons Very poor quality!!!!
Recommended it? No

Player worked well at first but after a couple of months would occasionally not recognize that a CD was loaded. It would scan all six slots and then would display No Disc. Usually after pushing the eject button a couple of times it would recognize and play the disc. Today it refuses to recognize a... Read full review »
