Strength:
It's a very nice CD Player (but with a major flaw, see below.) Great features, easy to use, the loading tray works great, awesome feature to have one disk playing while changing the others. USB input works well. Very quiet. Pure direct mode is cool. This CD Player is well worth it as long as you are only going to use the digital output. (Optical). If that's the case I highly recommend it. Weakness:
Could be a fantastic CD Player but it has one major flaw - a very lackluster DAC. For the price, ($500 CAD new), this is simply unacceptable so this is why I give it 3 stars. I could stomach the DAC if it were cheaper. I have tried it with both the analog and digital outputs hooked up to a modern receiver, and there is quite a difference, with the digital being much better. On a vintage Nakamichi receiver with only analog inputs, this CD Player simply is outclassed by a cheap Sony DVD/CD Player that I got for free! Very disappointing. The DAC makes music sound very compressed; so bad that it lowers the gain and cuts out A LOT of detail and fine sounds in music. Another smaller annoyance is that it won't play .flac files from USB. C'mon Yamaha, really? Price Paid: 160
