Sony MegaStorage CDP-CX355 300-Disc CD Changer

Pros: Just about everything!

Cons: Size

The Bottom Line: The best $160 I ever spent!

Review: I can't say enough good things about this machine.The sound quality is excellent for such an inexpensive machine that does so much.I have even tried an external D/A converter from it's optical output thinking it was going to sound better,not so.I...

Pros: its just like having your own DJ right in your house

Cons: none honest

Review: I recently bought this player and then researched it and got scared by all the bad reviews but in all honesty its the best player ive ever owned i maybe have about 200+ cds i have them all loaded and "labeled" which is a great feature i mean what other ...

Pros: Space saving on storage Ease of use Sound quality

Cons: Size, but think of the space that's been saved!

Review: One of my best hi-fi buys ever. Before I bought this I was wandering all over the house to find CD's, now I have them all in one place. Yes, it does take some time to change discs, but if I wanted instant access I'd have a hard drive instead! I have ...

Pros: Great way to store and organize your CD Collection. Disc labeling.

Cons: All of those empty "Jewel" boxes. Display-Front Panel hard to read unless at eye-level.

The Bottom Line: Great for storage and organizing for those with large CD Collections. Optical output not worth cost of cable. Player and CDs should last forever.

Review: Sony 300 Disc Capacity CD Player - Sony Model CDP-CX355 This was just what our home needed; a device that could let us Organize, Preserve and Play Compact Discs of any Age, Era, Genre and, Condition. There were dozens of CDs scattered around and it ...

Pros: 300 CD capacity, keyboard entry, relatively good value

Cons: Doesn't handle CD scratches well. Short CD text entry fields

The Bottom Line: Easy (but labor intensive) setup, nice feature set, good price make this a great unit with the caveat that it doesn't handle flawed CDs well.

Review: This is a 300-disc CD changer that comes with a fairly nice set of features for storing your collection and creating your own playlists. The unit is perfect for folks like me that have large CD collections spanning various types of music and want to be...

Pros: Great for parties, set it up, it will play for hours and hours.

Cons: A larger internal memory for an internal database would be nice.

The Bottom Line: I recommend this unit to anyone who has a large collection and does not want to continuously have to change the Cds one or five at a time.

Review: Juke boxes have come a long way since those large 45rpm machines in restaurants. Anyone who has more than 5 Cds should consider one these. It has a remoter control, will play in sequential, random order or user pre-defined list. It will display the name ...

Pros: The group feature is handy in ways I had not envisioned.

Cons: The 8 sub groups is a bit less than what is really needed

The Bottom Line: A good buy if you want to get out of the CD storage rut and finally get a chance to hear all your music.

Review: The unit although not my dream answer is fantastic at what it does. The 8 sub groups is a bit less than what is really needed but it can be lived with. As for the skipping issues I have had none but I keep my CD's like I kept my albums. clean and ...

Pros: Convenient device to store and play your CDs.

Cons: Not terribly easy to figure out how to use all the features.

The Bottom Line: It does what it's meant to do, but be prepared for a steep learning curve on using all the features.

Review: In searching for a jukebox-style CD changer, I found that Sony appears to have the market cornered. It has more CD-slots and features than I'll ever need, but there really seems to be little in the way of alternatives.

If you're into...

Pros: easy use and many features

Cons: bit large for cabinet or bookshelf and slow changing in shuffle mode

The Bottom Line: If you are looking to load up all your CD's into a mega changer, this is a great deal for the price

Review: Just recently upgraded my entire stereo system and was looking for a juke box type CD changer. Was a bit worried about the SONY CDP CX355 based on some reviews. But, so far so good. No problems to report. I really love having my 160 or so CD's cued...

Pros: Easy to use, holds 300 CDs, hasn't skipped so far

Cons: Physically large, no MPs or DVD capability

The Bottom Line: Buy it. Cheap, easy-to-use, holds 300 CDs

Review: Probably the best $200 we have spent - it holds 300 CDs and lets you enter the titles with a PC keyboard. Getting all 250 of our CDs out of storage boxes and loaded has let us really enjoy our music collection. If we get more CDs we have the option of ...
