Denon DCM280 5 Disc CD Changer

• Plays classic audio CD and MP3 audio CD
• Coaxial digital output and standard RCA output
• Manufactured October 2003

I've owned my Denon DCM-280 for over 6 months and have no complaints. I've never had a problem with it not reading my MP3 discs, CDR discs, or store bought CD's. The changer works smoothly and quietly. My 6 and 8 year old kids have not problem using the unit. I bought a refurbished unit from Crutchfield and plan to purchase second unit for our basement entertainment system. I selected the Denon unit over the Onkyo MP3 changer because the Denon has a headphone jack and the Onkyo does not. A plus for the Onkyo is that it holds 6 discs, while the Denon only holds 5. If you want a multi-disc player that plays MP3 discs and you might want to use a headphone jack, I recommend the Denon DCM-280.

Buy Denon DCM280 5 Disc CD Changer Now

I purchased it about one nad half month ago.

From the first day, the tray does not work smoothly.

Jamming, error, and .......... happens almost every time I use it. I went to a eceltronic dealer to check out the same model. The demo unit has similar problem.

Whilw this player does produce good sound quality, the loading and reading units are just not reliable.

Don't buy!!

This unit crapped out on me after only 3 years and only limited play. The carousel always seemed as though it would break at anytime, although it still worked. The CDs just weren't being read correctly or with any consistency. I took it back to where I purchased it (Hi Fi Fo Fum in STL) they said they could look at it for $70. I only paid $189. They were ready to sell me the newer model of Denon, but I think I'll try another brand. I told them to throw it away.

Only plays CDs when it feels like it. My new one would never play a dic in position 1 and would not play brand new CDs in any position. If it played a CD without any problem, the next time I turned the player on, it would not play that same CD. And the seller would not do a thing. Beware. They are turning out pure junk now for CD changers. Carolyn Reed

First off, one caveat: I bought this unit "Denon Factory Refurbished" (NOT from Amazon). It never worked properly. All I can say is NEVERRRRRR buy anything refurbished. This is the second time I have done so and BOTH times the units have not worked. Also, beware on this unit if you do buy it. It is shipped with two shipping screws on the underside that MUST be removed BEFORE you try to use the unit.
