Yamaha DV-C6660 5-Disc Progressive Scan DVD Changer

Yamaha DV-C6660 5-Disc Progressive Scan DVD Changer
  • 5-disc changer plays DVD-Video, CD, VCD, CD-R/RW, DVD+R/RW, and MP3 formats
  • Independent heads to improve VCD, SCD, and DVD performance
  • Antivibration system stabilizes unit from skips due to jarring
  • Intelligent Progressive video output; component video, S-Video, and composite video outputs; and optical and coaxial digital audio outputs
  • Mixed 2-channel audio output with 3-D surround sound

OVERALL: I purchased this for $70, which is probably what it is worth. It will get the job done, but not gracefully. I would not purchase another Yamaha DVD player, but I'm not rushing to get rid of this one either.

Video : good quality output, no problems here. Lots of output types supported.

Audio : Again, good quality, digital outputs are great.

Mechanical : This is where I have trouble. CD Switching is VERY SLOW. which makes shuffling (primary purpose of multi-disc player, in my opinion) painful. The Open-Close is equal slow. Poor mechanics. Only nice feature is "play-exchange" which means that you can switch discs without stopping the current DVD / CD.

Remote : ugly, poor button configuration, difficult to use, and the player responds to the remote variably (slow, or sometimes not at all)

User Interface: On screen is a nice feature, but ugly. Not very user friendly.
