Yes - I've got the Sony CDP-CX 200. I find it a little noisy changing CD
- it's in my TV room, and if you're sitting in there watching TV and
someone else is listening to a CD it's a bit annoying. They don't like
being moved with the CDs in - this tends to cause the CDs to fall out of
the carousel. Sounds quality is OK - there is a mod that gives you an
SP/DIF output, but I haven't got round to that yet.
Keeping track of the CDs is a challenge - the CDPCX200 only tells you
the disk number. I've got an 8051 connected to a TINI which gives me a
web interface, calling a java servlet on a web server which looks the
track up in an Oracle 8i database. That's what comes from being a
software developer and working from home. . . .
Cheers,
COlin.
