5-Disc Carousal-type CD Changer offers uninterrupted enjoyment of high sound quality with superior digital performance and easy operation with CD-RW disc compatibility, custom control interface and CD Text display.

Key Features:

• Playxchange
  Yamaha CD changers give you the benefits of extended playing time and direct selection from all discs. And with PlayXchange, you can change discs while the current one continues to play. You don't have to interrupt the music to change a disc and you're not limited to changing only one disc at a time.
• CD Text Display
  Get information about the CD currently playing right on the CD player’s display. The 3-mode text display shows the CD’s title, the artists name and the title of the track.

High Sound Quality

• Super-Silent Mechanism and Disc Stabilizer
  Yamaha's new Super-Silent Mechanism uses a both belt and gear drive to ensure smooth disc rotation and plastic rollers under the tray to allow it to move more smoothly. The disc being played is isolated from vibration on a separate tray, and held in place by a disc stabilizer. The entire disc changing system thus helps to maximize sound quality.
  
• Laser Pickup Floating Mechanism
  The laser pickup is isolated on a floating mechanism so its delicate operation cannot be affected by vibration.
  
• Intelligent Digital Servo System
  Conventional tracking servo circuitry cannot completely overcome errors caused by disc defects, warpage, dust and so on. This system uses a microcomputer to monitor the signal, adjusting pickup tracking and focus, as well as spindle motor speed, to compensate for any problems.
  
• High Performance Parts and Circuitry Used Throughout
  Because every single part affects sound quality, Yamaha uses nothing but the best. The special Low-Impedance Power Supply, for example, uses extra thick wires to ensure that power is absolutely stable even under low-impedance conditions.
