This machine is impressive. It is very well made - with a very pleasing exterior, and a very clean and well laid out interior. It provides more features at this price point than you can find elsewhere. For example - it gives two USB 3.1 Gen 2 ports, and a USB C port on the front! The engineering is well thought out. For example, the memory is two paired 4GB sticks, to optimize throughput. The machine is snappy and does the jobs it was designed for very well. One thing to take note of is that the machine is not designed for high end gaming, and really can't be upgraded to do so - it has a 180W interior power supply and a proprietary motherboard. But it does all the tasks characteristic of a home pc very well, and somewhat beyond. I am doing photo editing using Adobe Lightroom and Adobe Photoshop Elements, and they work very well. I have paired the PC with a 28" Samsung 4K monitor, and the images are stunning. For the price, you won't find a better machine anywhere.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Bower - Flexible 24" LED Ring Light - White
Get the perfect lighting for your smartphone videos with this Bower 24-inch flexible LED ring light. Three brightness levels from 36 LEDs let you find the ideal light level for video chats, vlogging or live streaming. This Bower 24-inch flexible LED ring light clips easily to your choice of surfaces and most smartphone models for extra versatility.
 

This shows a 24" size but the pictures seem smaller. could this be centimeters?

The support arm for the light is 20" from the clamp to the bottom of the light. The outer diameter of the light is 4". So there is a total of 24" from the clamp to the top of the light.

 Philips - Wireless Over-Ear Noise Canceling Headphones- Black - Black
Philips - Wireless Over-Ear Noise Canceling Headphones- Black - Black
The Philips PH805 headphones give you control over what you hear and what you don’t, no matter what the day brings you. Enjoy your favorite songs in Hi-Res Audio during your morning workout in wireless freedom. Switch to Google assistant to check your flight information with a touch, and then enjoy your flight in silence by activating noise canceling. And enjoy your videos in high quality sound once you get to the hotel. One set of headphones can now cover all of your needs. With the PH805, you control what you hear and what you don’t hear. A tap to the ear-cup will activate noise cancelation, so you can be enveloped in a shroud of silence when you need to concentrate or rest. If you want to turn the volume down on the world but still hear louder sounds like someone speaking to you, simply activate Awareness Mode with another tap. The PH805 comes with Google Assistant, which allows you to manage your life on the move, without taking out your phone. Just touch the headband to activate it. Open your calendar, read notifications from your phone, call or send messages to friends, or check the weather simply by asking Google Assistant. The PH805 is also a quality headphone set that delivers detailed, high resolution sound, which you can use as your go-to headphones for home or on the go entertainment. Hi-Res Audio means that they are capable of playing back lossless audio at a higher sample rate than most headphones and CDs when connected to a high-res source. The benefits of the PH805 last for a full 30 hours, making them an ideal solution for every situation you find yourself in throughout the day (and night). You get up to 30 hours of play time (or talk time) with noise canceling off, or 25 hours of use with it on. If you need an extra 2 to 6 hours of battery life, 5 to 15 minutes of charging will be enough. The Philips PH805 has you covered. And when you are finally through using the Philips PH805s, they fold right up into a compact travel case, making them convenient to take with you wherever you go.

Listen to your favorite albums with this Onkyo DX-C390(B) 6-disc CD player that features Vector Linear Shaping Circuitry technology for clear, brilliant audio. The high-precision multibit D/A converter delivers high-quality sound.
 

I've been looking for a media center. Has anyone found one with a 17" deep shelf? Length 42" or less. Would like a unit w/3 shelves to set up the Logitech sw(11" H) with room for storing cds. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Consider putting the player on top of the media center. I have done that with my player, and put my turntable on top of the player. Be aware that this player really needs about 18.5" of space, because the cables stick out the back. Haven't seen any media centers with shelves deep enough to accommodate that.

Our Onkyo DX-C390 6-disc cd player will not play. When turned on and "loaded" it sounds like it is trying to access the discs but is unable to, and it keeps displaying the message "NO DISC".

Try forcing a reset of the player. Do this by unplugging the power, then letting it sit for a few hours to a day, then plug it back in. You should also remove the discs from the player before doing this.

When will this be back in Stock NEW

Since Onkyo has pulled out of the US marketplace, I suspect that it will not be back in stock as a new unit. I got mine as an "open box, Excellent" unit - and it was as good as new. You can find it as new on Amazon, but its price there is exorbitant - far above the suggested retail price.

Can I stack my Yamaha receiver on top of the CD player? The CD player is a bit too wide to use side by side.

I would say it is ok to put your receiver on top of the cd player, but would recommend against putting the receiver under it. Receivers can generate a fair amount of heat, and you generally want to have good airflow on the top and sides of the receiver.
