| 1413.1 | Check Out The ES Carousel | AQUA::ROST | Hum-dum-dinger from Dingersville | Wed Nov 30 1988 06:39 | 5 |

I believe that the Sony carousel model in the *ES* line has the
custom file memory, while the regular CDP model doesn't.

| 1413.2 | Look at the CDP-70 | CANDY::CASTIGLIONE | Heavy Metal Thunder | Wed Nov 30 1988 07:01 | 1 |
| The Sony CDP-70 also has the custom file.
|
| 1413.3 | CDP-C70 is a possible | MARVIN::BIGELOW | Bruce - DECnet-VAX | Wed Nov 30 1988 07:22 | 13 |
| As .2 implies, the Sony CDP-C70 (5 disc carousel) has everything
requested in .0, possibly with one exception. It has true random
track selection when playing one disc, but is rumored to not really
remember what it has played on which disc when doing "random" on
multiple discs. I don't know if this is true. The difference between
the CDP-C70 and the CDP-C70 ES is that the ES has digital (Co-axial)
output.
Lechmere's regular price on the CDP-C70 is $419, but it can be had
for less. I'd be interested in knowing who (in NH or northern MA)
has the lowest price on this, since I'm considering one.

The SONY CDP C70 has almost all the features you want, except it can't
handle doing a shuffle play of *programmed* tracks. Also, as stated in
the AUDIO conference, SONY's idea of shuffle play doesn't match what
most of us would expect as a logical method (for multiple disc
shuffling, that is).
I really doubt, at this time, if you're going to be able to find a
player with EVERY feature you want. Maybe a couple years down the
road...

| 1413.5 | Try the Pioneers | SSDEVO::ALDEN | | Wed Nov 30 1988 08:10 | 9 |
| Look/listen to the Pioneer PDM600 or PDM700. I think that they
both have all the features that you are looking for (with the possible
exception of random play of a custom track selection, I'm not sure).
Auto-disk changer, Favorite track selection (and/or track "deletion")
programmable for each 6-disc holder (up to 10?), Random Play mode (all
songs once), remote control (most or all features from remote),
good sound (you'll have to listen for your self though), and 8 (for
the 600) or 16 (for the 700) bit over-sampling.

| 1413.6 | Check out the Pioneer PD-M700 | GRANPA::DLEADER | | Wed Nov 30 1988 08:35 | 16 |
| Check out note 1372 for Pioneer and Sony comparisons.
I have the Pioneer PD-M700. I too need good bass response due to
my particular hearing characteristics and speaker placement. I
am VERY satisfied with the bass response from the Pioneer, but each
of us hear differently - listening for yourself is the key. I believe
that the CD technology, in most medium to top units, is the same
in frequency response.
As far as features, I think that the Pioneer has all the features
you are looking for. If you are unable to check out the "user"
manual at the stores - I will be glad to copy mine for you. Send
me a message - if you want to discuss anything.
