Pros: Simple to use, easy access to CD cassette.
Cons: None Yet

After the purchase of my Alpine Cassette Receiver, I found that there was one thing that would help make my truck sound system much more enjoyable. I needed a CD changer. Actually I purchased both units in the same visit to the same store but the...

Pros: Great sound, no skips, great value
Cons: No matter where you install it you will have some inconveniences

I’m delighted to write a review of the product, which led me to discover this website. And today seems to be the right occasion—my one-year anniversary with Epinions. It was December 21st, 1999. I was browsing the Net for information on a car stereo...

Pros: quick cd changes, no skipping, affordable price
Cons: cd loading

After 6 years of great service, my stock Acura cd changer started having problems, so I decided it was time for a new one. I came onto Epinions to check out which highest rated cd changer would be the replacement. After careful reviewing and price...

Pros: easy to add to a factory radio, never skips
Cons: door is weak

I recently added this changer to my Acura Vigor. Honda had employed Alpine to do the audio in the early 90’s and hence made factory stereos with CD controllers compatible with Alpine changers. I understand that a few BWM, Mazda, Volvo, and Mercedes...

Pros: Great sound, easy to use.
Cons: Have to stop the car to change CD selection

Wow! Once you try an in-car CD changer like the Alpine, you will never want to drive without one again! Any in-car CD changer is great. No more switching CD's in heavy traffic. No more fumbling for lost CD's on the floor and under the seat. Instead,...

Pros: great reciever

The Civic has a standard alpine receiver built in. Buy an Alpine changer
2. The choice was obvious to me before I purchased the car...Alpine.

Alpine, hands down, makes the best car stereo equipment. I have been in numerous friends' cars...

Pros: Works with your factory stereo
Cons: Wasn't included with the car

We bought a Honda Odyssey, and ended up with a cassette deck that had built in CD-changer controls, but no changer. Honda gets $350+ for their players, starting with a single CD player attachment.

That wasn't the route I wanted to go, but I...

Pros: price, sound, no skips
Cons: changing disks

I recently had an Alpine CHM-S620 installed in my 1999 Honda Civic LX 4DR - thanks to the help of other epinions. So I felt it was only right for me to write an opinion now!

I had three options of where to locate the changer in my Civic:
...

Pros: Great value, never skips, quick changing
Cons: none

My Acura Legend Coupe came pre-wired from the factory for a trunk mounted CD changer.I checked with my local Acura dealer to see how much one cost and was a bit dismayed to learn that there changer was going to set me back $600.

After...

Pros: Good sound, no skip, ease of use
Cons: Reliability is a big MINUS!!!

Had my CHMS-620 for 1 year and 27 days when it decided not to play anymore (first played song & went to next song but gave an error code CDE-1 which means the cassette tray was jammed), got it home and ejected the cassette and re-inserted it. It...

Pros: convenient
Cons: adapter confusion

The Alpine CD changer is an excellent selection when installation space is at a premium. Further, Alpine quality car audio components is unsurpassed. Feel confident when you buy Alpine, but don't forget to correctly install it.

When I got my...

Pros: Crash proof; doesn't skip*
Cons: -

I bought my Alpine 6 CD Changer right after I got my new 1994 Honda Accord. I originally wanted to have a CD changer that played through the FM radio because I thought that was the cheapest way to add a CD changer. My Accord has a very decent Honda...

Pros: One Pextris, One Dexter. Who went wrong? Not our reality.
Cons: Blame your selves.

Well... By now I'm sure many of you have read our plans which parallel your misfortunes in the commentary provided by my inter-realitary partner "Alpha". As you may or may not already know, he is the more reasonable of the two of us. What can I say? I...

Pros: Never skips, good resale value.
Cons: price, but it is worth it.

I have had problems with CD changers skipping in the past until I got my Alpine 6 CD changer. This has been by far the best sounding Cd changer with the best quality. I am so impressed with the Alpine brand that I will NEVER go back to anything else....

Pros: Soft support for your cd's
Cons: Only holds six discs

If your planning on throwing down some money for a changer then you might as well throw it down for this one. Why? Well I think it is a solid changer, with no problems or cut corners on design. When you push the magazine of cd's in the changer you can...
