 "Not enough information." | 2008-08-28 |

I didn't know that the CD player did not have it's own built in amplifier. No mention of this fact in the description. It also needs seperate speakers, not mentioned either. Had an old CD player that had both things. Using this one, plugged into the old one. No one seems to know what amplifier I need. My old speakers work with it.
Just a little ticked off.
Info on an amplifier would be appreciated. |

| We are loving the CD storage/changer!!! Since we're not "IPod people", this is a perfect solution for us. We never listened to our CD's - it was always too much trouble to look through them, etc. Now, they are all neatly stored and just a click away from enjoying them. |

Bumped into these reviews regarding the Sony..not the 1st time is had heard same complaints. My exstensively old blues collection out grew my 200 cd changer awhile ago, only so many my pc will hold before it becomes a snail, , Sony walkman (dig), storage all good but want the CD's safe and be able to find a Cd without going thru towers.. anyhow.. not many to choose from and my idea was with so many complaints there must have been many returns to fix the problem (hopefully) so I purchased a refurb from ebay a little over 100 buxs. No bad news to report.. (so far) I am surprised that the sound quality from this is noticably better the the 200 changer which was very good. I began with Sony's earliest cartridge changer... geeesh but I managed. This is the obvious, keep this humongous beast level, my 200 changer had a few mishaps, more then a few, but alls well that ends well. My heart goes out to those who had there precious cd's injured maybe I'm lucky with the refurb or maybe its something for the prospective buyer to think about. Also, i don't lop side the load when I am going thru the arguous task of going thru the cd,s and naming them, mine is filled to the limit, weight equally distributed.. I would think Sony would be more careful with allowing there name to be connected to a CD eater, getting off the subject... My son has an Ipod... I didn't feel like putting out the bux for one so i picked up a Sony Walkman that works perfectly with my Windows Media 11 (pc).. The sound is to my ears so much more real with imagery etc.. my model $80! only 2 gigs but its about the tunes not the video for me.
These reviews are scarey for the person looking for a big Juke box.. think refurbish or make sure you have ample time to return a new one..but if your "blessed" with one which functions as it should.. Its a good sounding piece of gear with big storage, just be sure you have the space for it and keep it level... |

I've had this product for only a few months, it reminds me of the old style record machines that you would find in clubs, bars, etc.,Only more technally advanced. There is only one minor problem with it, and that is in it's search for songs in the random play mode it's a little slow, but this could be due to it having to search through 300 cds, but then i also thought like this with every cd being labeled it should not be a problem to find a song. I watched the old style jukebox machines and how they would search for records, and play the song requested, and they were really fast at finding the song/songs, and since this machine seems to work on that same principle it stands to reason that it should be just as fast if not faster due to mordern electronic technology of today,i would watch the old style jukebox machines search for records, and the one thing that i noticed was the carousel would really spin fast in it's search for songs it didn't take very long at all for it to find a song, and since this product seems to be made on this same principile then the electronic wizards at sony should be able to incorporate this into their MegaStorage Units. Go back to the drawing table guys i believe that you all can improve on the MegaStorage's random search song ability shave some of it's song finding time down/off i mean come on the old style juke boxes were faster i'm sitting there looking at the front display screen, and all i see is this disc twirling around, and around, and around, and around, you get my drift? until it finally finds the song i think the operative word here is "CAROUSEL SPEED"

| I've had this player for about a year now and it has never given me any trouble. What I like most about it is that you can make copies of music CD's on your computer with text so you don't have to hand make a spreadsheet. The text you type in or in my case is somehow automatically brought in on the computer appears in the display so you can see the name of the album, the performer and the names of the songs. The song names appear and stay visible througout the entire song so you know what you are listening to at all times. When you are not actually playing a song the name of the album appears in the display. I use Roxio CD creator on my computer to do all this. Another thing I like about this player is that you can group CD's anyway you want to so all you have to do is punch up the group number (1-8) and you then can listen to just those CD's without having to go through the rest while searching for the CD you want to listen to. You simply give the group number a name and file the disc in that group. My overall experience with this player has been great. Fot those who have had problems my guess is that you were the victim of a defective Sony product purchase. From reading a lot of reviews on Sony products, I've come to the conclusion that Sony makes good products but some of them make it to the shelves with defects. I've been fortunate that all the Sony products I've purchased were in perfect shape. If I am right about this, Sony had better do something or it is really going to hurt their business as more and more people wise up to what is going on. My advice is to be aware of this when you are making a decision on whether or not to purchase a Sony product and make sure you get all the information you can about returning the product if it indeed proves to be defective otherwise you might get stuck with it. Sony's customer service is really poor so I wouldn't even bother with contacting them if you have a problem. Deal with the store from where you purchased it. Make sure you understand their return policies before making a purchase. That goes with anything not just Sony products. Anyways thats my take on it. This player is a good player only if it is not defective. |

| I finally had to replace my old Sony CD changer after five years of problem-free use at my shop. We sell CDs and play them continually - nine hours a day, seven days a week. It finally started stuttering and cleaning didn't cure it. I bought another Sony. Couldn't ask for much more. |

| the product works fine it is slow in it's functions. But it works. What I am unhappy with is the service I got from Amazon customer service. I got this 400 disc player and no instructions, no remote, no hookup cables nothing but the beat up box and the machine. Their responce was "return it" I asked them to help me get the missing items they quit responding. Customer service in action. NO HELP The machine was to be a gift I explained this and that I did not have time to return it and get another one especialy since they were going to charge me to return it. {shipping} Thank You Signed NO HELP AT ALL FROM CUSTOMER SERVICE |

| This product is so easy to use, plus I love that I can get rid of all the cd cases, no more clutter because everything is stored in the player which frees up a lot of space, no more dust or fingerprints on the cd's!! |

| I have had this CD changer for many years. Except for a few minor irritants at the beginning I have been satisfied with it. But a few days ago it died! When I say died I mean in the grave, absence of vital signs, Nada, zip, nothing, crapped out, zero, down the S$%*&er! I am not going to replace irt with same device. I'll try something different. |
