Got the brand new CD player home hooked it up and the tray never opened, it wanted to but just seemed jammed. Going to Sony.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

What's great about it: It holds 5 CDs.
What's not so great: So far, there are no negatives.
I recently purchased my Denon CD player and I am very satisfied with the sound quality, the ease of operation, & the very easy set-up.
I would recommend this to a friend!

What's great about it: The sound quality is fine
What's not so great: It jams so often, you won't be able to listen to the fine sound quality !
Poor design of changer causes discs to slide around & jam inside. I have had to open it constantly to unjam it. It should be priced lower than other players, not higher. Then it would be another low priced piece of junk ! Wouldn't have expected this from Denon. They cared not about my complaint. Back to Sony !
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

What's great about it: The sound was good and it was easy to set up BUT.......
What's not so great: CDs slide out of the slots, jam and get scratched.
The Denon 5 disc changer had the features I wanted and the sound was fine but after playing through a couple of the CDs the changer jammed because one of the CDs slid over onto another CD and jammed the carrousel so it could no longer move. I had to turn the changer on its side and shake the CDs until they slid forward so I could get the changer to open. I though this was perhaps a unique occurance but it happened a second time and scratched another CD so I returned it. I was very disappointed with this product.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

What's great about it: easy to set up; fantastic sound reproduction
What's not so great: size of unit hardly fits in normal sized stereo cabinet
I bought this item factory refurbished. The sound is outstanding. I listen to a lot of vocal music. Finally a cd-player that helps me understand the lyrics.
I would recommend this to a friend!

What's great about it: Could not be determined
What's not so great: Did not play music,or...
After my son,who incidentally is a graduate from Institute of Art,Canada,degree in music engineering and production hooked components up...rotation of disk tray did not work, then after placing two,previously sealed,brand new discs in slots that were exposed,directed to then simply press,forward arrow,to play...and there's just no response...well,Denon was a resounding complete unequivical huge dispappointment.
I spent more than 4 or 5 hours all told,also awaiting phone help,to use their exspensive product,in this economy and no one after 42 minutes picked up line to save this sale.I had checked web site,all trouble shooting info.,waste of time big time!!!
I'm going back to Sony...or some manufacturer that their equipment simply works.
This is not rocket science.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
