Convenient, simple to understand and use . So far dependable. A great way to store and have ready to play all of my CD'S. An improvement would be if while playing one could remove and clean or add a CD. The unit stops playing when you try. |

| This is exactly what I wanted. It was simple and easy to set up. The sound is great and the speed is good for the volume of CD's stored. Very quiet also. Good LCD display on unit - I can read it from the couch. The remote is very basic but works - no LCD. So far I love it. I'm starting to listen to music I've had stacked in a closet for five years. |

"Worth the money and a good answer to CD storage." | 2008-03-10 |
| - Reviewed By gtdaelemansjr |
With a library of over 400 CD's and my 5 disc Yamaha acting squirrelly, I felt the time had come to solve both problems. Since I had good experience with the Pioneer DV-F727 300+1 DVD player, the equivalent CD magazine player seemed a good bet and,so far,this has been the case. Although I'm still not quite finished loading it, the controls readily allow one to access the last empty slot and, if you should want to remove a disc to play in an auto or other player, it is easy to retrieve/play/return it.
One caveat is Pioneer's recommendation that, if the device must be moved, it should be unloaded/reloaded rather than be transported full. I suspect that stuffing bubble wrap on top of the internal carousal full of discs and then handling it gently would obviate the need to remove the discs and carry them separately with the problem of providing physical protection for them.
A second unit can be combined to provide a total storage of 600+2--which implies I could increase my library by another 200 discs. I haven't gathered up the nerve to broach such an idea to my wife. |

"Great except CD Text (vs Sony CDPCX355)" | 2008-01-21 |
| - Reviewed By User: ATDOHZB1XSQLB |
This is a great product, as you can see from the other reviews. I chose the Pioneer instead of Sony's 300 disk version because of the reviews about the better quality of the Pioneer. My parents have the Sony CDPCX355. The one down side to the Pioneer that the Sony has better is the CD text feature. With the Pioneer, I don't have a single CD where the "CD text" is read and displayed. The Sony does a much better job of reading and displaying the titles and artists from CDs. Also the Sony has a keyboard port so you can plug in a keyboard and edit disk information manually (a very nice feature). Also, the Sony's display has a seperate line for CD text where the Pioneer replaces track information with the text. Because of this (I assume) the Sony displays the CD's text much more quickly (the Pioneer's manual says its displays the text after 5 seconds). For both players, I have a hard copy of CD locations so the CD text is no big deal but it is something to consider. |

| PRODUCT IS AS ADVERTISED AND IS QUALITY; ONLY DRAWBACK IS TIME IN LOADING THE CD'S AND MAINLY REMEMBERING TO IDENTIFY LOCATIONS OF CD'S..... ONCE THEY ARE LOADED, IT IS DIFFICULT TO FIND A CD IF YOU HAVEN'T MADE A CATALOG LISTING! |

| We have many Christmas CD's and others. The ability to random play is great. The remoted control did not work. The Pioneer people after a few phone switches promised that a new one is in the mail. It is only one month; but it should arive any day. *** I had hoped the remote that was all that was wrong. Product control must be off. I will now have to ship it back. the syptem will not allow me to change review from 3 star to the one star I would now give it. |

"one irritating problem" | 2007-12-26 |
| - Reviewed By User: A16QXFGRBU0RBU |
| This changer sounds good and once you get it going on all random, works great HOWEVER it always defaults to "PO" when I turn it on and I can find nowhere in the instruction manual to get it out of that mode so I have turn it on, open the disc compartment, close it, hit random and hope it goes there. Most of the time it does otherwise I have to repeat the process until it works. It's a pain but like I said, other than that, it's nice. If anyone else has run into this and has a fix I would really appreciate your input. |

"Solid unit" | 2007-10-23 |

| I had a Sony 200 disc unit a few years back that dropped disks often. I read the reviews and determined that the problem still exists, so I opted for this Pioneer unit. I have had it running 3 months now and have not has any problems. Audio quality is average thru the RCA cable. Ya gotta get the optical cable for premium sound. You might consider an upgrade to play MP3's or DVD's - I saw no need for those features, considering the added cost. I highly recommend this CD unit! A great buy! |

"reliable" | 2007-05-13 |

| I needed to replace my Sony 200 disc changer because it skipped all over the first two tracks on every cd. The Pioneer is reliable, sounds great and can play every track on every cd. I like the extra slot for individual use. Keeping track of what's in the changer requires making a list or cataloging the cd covers. |

"Great disc changer" | 2007-03-28 |

| I had one of the older models for many years before it quit working and I just loved it, so I went looking for another one. I couldn't believe none of the stores carry these anymore so I was thrilled to find it on the internet. It came really fast, was packaged very well and works like a charm. I really like the single CD player feature which my other one had, too. I would recommend this disc changer to anyone. |
