Review 1 of 3

Price Paid:  $130.00 from 6th Avenue Electroni

Summary:
The price on this unit was hard to pass up. This unit replaced my 1st generation Panasonic DVD player which wouldn't even play CDRs. I am very happy with this unit. It does everything its supposed to. I am a big JVC fan and trying to keep everything in the family. Sometimes I think a single disc unit would have been better but it was such a good deal!!!

Weaknesses:
Be warned!!! Do not move this unit when there are discs inside. I did this and they moved around and I had to open the unit up and extract a couple discs which had found there way into places they shouldn't have been. Don't buy this unit for the MP3 playback feature. It only comes out through the analog outputs and the folder navigation isn't the best.

Review 3 of 3

Price Paid:  $89.00 from Ubid (refurbished un

Summary:
Purhcased because it was multi-disc and had all i wanted at low price (this is a refurbished unit $130 including shipping) .

Strengths:
So far works well with Dolby Digital Optical out playing DVD's.{

Weaknesses:
BIG disappointment with MP3 playback (which i was hoping to USE more of) MP3 (digital format) playback only outputs through ANALOG output (???) very weird! MP3 playback only possible with DIGITAL OPTICAL cable unplugged!!! even weirder... one must plug/unplug DIGITAL out to get MP3 playback to work... THIS IS RIDICULOUS!

Marantz MA-9S2 Reference Series Power Amplifiers Review

Marantz MA-9S2 Power AmplifierThe list above has one tenet that I continue to hold true: high powered amplifiers are necessary to reproduce the full dynamic range of music with most speakers. This became apparent when I changed from the 100 Watt per channel Bella Extreme 100 to the 250 Watt.....

Lowther’s DX-65 driver in the Teresonic Magus XR Review

A new driver from Lowther is real news. A new five inch driver is even rarer news, so it was with great anticipation that I waited on this pair of speakers to arrive.

Aune Mini Headphone DAC User Review

The unit arrived from China well packed and everything seem to be in place. No external abuse by the carriers. The only problem was the power supply it came with. The box came with a cheap step-down converter.
