300 CDs, Needs a Refesh / Outdated
Pros: Size, sound, organizing
Cons: This is the CDDB age. This thing's data entry...On 300 CDs.
This thing seriously needs a refresh. Obviously the marketing bozos at this once great company haven't figured out how to integrate this product with the brave new digital world. Okay, some thoughts -- (I want to store all of my discs safely, I want to call them up quickly, I want access to a friggin' CDDB so setup's easy, and since I want to be able to rip the bloody lot of it while sitting on the other room) Sigh. Don't buy this, it's a great product but not at modern usability standards. Not in 2010.

Time for Sony to take the next step
Pros: 300 cds in one changer! memo capabilities, newer cds already encoded with text info
Cons: Plastic rubbing noise when CDs change, no network/internet connection
Have had this deck for quite a while and am reasonably happy with it. New CDs don't even need to have info input anymore. There is an annoying loud rubbing type noise when CDs are changing. That is my only real complaint. The next step for Sony would be to allow this player to be connected to the internet/home network to pull info about the discs off the internet and allow you to manage the discs from your PC/MAC. I was thinking I was ready for a second deck and was hoping to find that Sony might have this feature now that might be backward compatible through the Mega Command capabilities to extend the new capabilities to the older changers as well. Would buy another one in a minute if internet/networking capabilities were added. Would also like to figure out a way to stop the rubbing noise when cds change.

Overall performance is great
Pros: Easy groups, Custom Files, Keyboard entry
Cons: 13 character titling, changing discs
Upgraded from a JVC 200 disc jukebox. The extra slots and ability to connect additional units very useful. Keyboard entry of disc names is phenominal, but 13 character title is too restrictive. Longer entries with display scrolling needed. Custom delete file is great to eliminate that undesired track. Basic operation is straight forward, but changing a disc is difficult. A lever to lift disc out where it can be removed would improve handling. Solid overall performer.
