Price Paid:  $70.00 from Best Buy

Summary:
It works great and sounds great. It supports all burned cd's I've thrown at it, which is why I bought it in the first place. I was a little suspicous when I first bought it, since there were no reviews online that I could find. But alas, it turned out to be a good investment. If you want a cd player (a changer at that) that sounds solid and performs well and your budget is extremely tight, then pick up this one. A pricier one would sound better obviously. But this unit is great bang/buck! The worst part about it is all the blinking lights. When a disc is playing, there are 4 different lights blinking all at the same time, all in different locations. It's distracting, but for $70 you can't complain. I deducted the overall because of those damn blinking lights, otherwise it would have been a 4.

Strengths:
inexpensive, can play burned cd's, optical out

Weaknesses:
loud when changing discs, the lights are constantly blinking on the thing (kind of annoying), bulky remote, no dimmer feature
