If you look on the inside cover of this month's Stero Review Techniques is offering 5 free CD's with the purchase any of the following units: SLP-10 SLP-8 SLP-7 I've seen the SLP-8 and the SLP-10 and think that it's about a toss up for features... the SLP-10 is made out of cast alunimum whereas some of the parts on the SLP-8 are plastic... the 8 is suppose to have newer guts which make it sound as good or better for less money. Anyone heard anything about the SLP-9 it seems to be missing ... everyone I've talked to says it doesn't exist and is expecting something that does oversampling like the Yahmaha unit but doesn't have any dates. I've been very impressed with the programmability of the 8 and 10 does anyone have any perils of wisdom about these machines (good or bad) ... Personally I've only heard good about the 10 unit and the 8 is new so I havn't heard anything except what a friend told me about the features. Steve Munyan

I've heard complaints about excessive mechanical noise (by the laser focusing system) on SLP-7 and 8. Otherwise they should be ok (whether the mechanical noise is disturbing dpeneds of course where the machine is located). | |||||

Can anyone tell me anything about the Technics SLP500?
Is it worth getting all the bells and whistles?

Mike,
I have the Technics SLP300. The basic difference that I could
see was that the 500 had a "Keypad" on the unit (both have remote
control keypads). The 500 also had an individual volume control
for headphones which didn't seem of value to me because I listen
through the amp.
The keypad is good in that it allows you to program the tracks
in any order by entering the track number (as opposed to using the
skip forward/backward button). I use my remote control to do this
when I am making my tapes for the car. And most of the time when
I am "just listening" to music, I simply push the "Play" button
and let it go. Besides, the money I saved bought a lot of CDs.
