Does it all
(5 out of 5) by Dr. James on Jan 15, 2005 (Buffalo, NY)This unit has all the features you'd want- fully compatible for Dolby Digital, DTS, etc., an optical digital output, progressive scanning. I actually don't have a TV that accepts progressive scan output but there's a switch on the back to stay in normal playback until I upgrade my TV. Video can be output in component form.
The slow forward and reverse playback is much smoother than my old unit. There are separate Menu and Top Menu buttons so you can go back just to the Special Features (or other sub-menu) or all the way back to the initial menu. It also remembers where you were watching on the disc even if you've watched a different one since- really nice. The set-up is reasonably easy with the on screen menu- it only took me a couple of tries to get the right digital output, etc. About 15 minutes overall.
It really does play damaged discs- I had an ancient CD that hadn't been in its case and was smudged and scratched. It played perfectly without even cleaning it.
For a 5 disc changer I don't see how you'd find a better value.

Excellent Product, Value for Money!
(5 out of 5) by Murali K. Nagulakonda on Jun 15, 2004I bought this product couple of weeks back, and it's beautiful. Plays MP3, SVCD, DVD +/- R/RW without a hitch. I love it. It's excellent value for money. It also has Digital Optical out, so it's cool if you have a HTR which accepts it!
I love it and for the price and value would highly recommend it!

Works great- Plays everything I throw at it
(5 out of 5) by OWEN on May 14, 2005 (OVERLAND PARK, KS)I've had players in the past that have balked at the cheaper Dvd media I've stuffed into it. Not this one. I'd buy another one just like it in a second.

Does it all
(5 out of 5) by D A T on Jul 22, 2005 (Oak Park, Illinois United States)This is a large changer, but for the money it can't be beat!

No, doesn't do it all!
(2 out of 5) by Jaina on Apr 17, 2005 (Brooklyn, NY)Why would Sony make a 5-disk CD/DVD changer that can't even shuffle tracks on all 5 CDs?
I bought this model because I wanted something that was as good as my old 5-CD changer but could also play DVDs. Little did I know that Sony had put a 5-disk tray into a DVD player with the reading ability of a single disk player, and then jacked up the price.
In addition, I have to unplug the model to reset it once a week or so. If I don't, it starts chirping like a cricket during playback.
If you're looking for a good 5-disk changer, DON'T go with this model!
