Pros: Just about everything!
Cons: Size

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: Small Size, Worth Every Penny, Holds 300 CDs, many great and unique memory and storage functions to make organization easy!
Cons: A little difficult to use without instruction manual.

Each year, Santa a.k.a. my mom, has me compile a list of what I want if I was a good little boy, and the spoiled little brat inside of me always expects at least one expensive item. After thinking it over, I decided a new CD changer with larger storage...

Pros: Outstanding access to your music.
Ability to create categories.
Deleting tracks you don't like.
Cons: Time getting all of your CDs loaded but fun to reacquaint yourself with your CDs.

I was a little hesitant to purchase this unit after reading some of the reviews about problems with CDs skipping or even not playing in some cases.  I did encounter this problem a few times but the cause and the solution were very obvious.  The ...

Pros: Good on-screen display. Love the keyboard input.
Cons: Can be a little tricky to use. Remote lacks a little.

The on-screen display is nice. You can easily find your CD's by artist name, setup categories for your tunes, etc. It has a "hit list" feature that will let you dynamically put in up to 30 of your favorite tracks and play them without having to...

Pros: Easy-to-use and really allows you to get the most out of your CD collection
Cons: No individual song entry

The 300 CD player really makes your life easier. Just load it up with up to 300 CDs and never again will you be fumbling with CDs and their covers. Multiple play modes allow you to play music in a variety of ways - your favourite songs, a specific...

Pros: 8 groupings, lots of CD's
Cons: time consuming title entry

I purchased my player about 3 months ago now. The first one I purchased had something wrong and I ended up taking it back and getting a new one within 2 days.

A couple of things that are cool about this unit. First, it was the only unit that...

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 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.

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: Keeps one from constantly getting up to change disk.
Cons: 13 character labeling limit

I've been using a Pioneer PD-M455 6 disk changer for more than a decade now. This past Xmas Santa was good to me, of course I'm always good to me, and bought me the CX355. Now instead of interchanging two six disk changers I just sit back, push shuffle ...

Pros: Easy to use, holds 300 CDs, hasn't skipped so far
Cons: Physically large, no MPs or DVD capability

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 ...

Pros: 300 CD capacity, keyboard entry, relatively good value
Cons: Doesn't handle CD scratches well. Short CD text entry fields

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: Massive storage, crisp sound, sleek design.
Cons: Time consuming to load lookup cd's.

My purchase of the Sony CX 335 was somewhat by chance. My 5 disc cd player had finally been laid to rest after a 10 year life. I decided if I was going to replace it, I might as well get a combo cd/dvd player, After a bit more research, I realized I...

Pros: Holds a lot of discs, easy to use group system
Cons: Too slow in shuffle mode, too large

As you would expect, Sony didn't lie. This CD player does hold 300 cds. Amazing.
It's easy to figure out. It even has a handy-dandy keyboard input jack so you can label your cds with ease.
unfortunately, if you label a Coltrane cd in slot 123...

Pros: easy use and many features
Cons: bit large for cabinet or bookshelf and slow changing in shuffle mode

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: 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.
