Product Details

Yamaha CDC-697BL 5 Disc Black CD Changer, Model CDC697

Helpful Downloads for the CDC697 :

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.

Features:

Convenient Operation

  • Yamaha patented PlayXchange for enjoying uninterrupted music
  • CD-R/RW Disc Compatibility
    This CD changer can handle CD-R and CD-RW discs with ordinary songs. (Note that some discs may not play.)
  • 40-Track Random Access Programmable Play and Clear
    It's extremely easy to program the tracks you want to hear in any order. You can clear the programme at any time with a single touch.
  • RS-232C Interface
    An RS-232C interface is provided so this player can be controlled via computer in a custom installation.
  • Peak Search
    Gives you better sounding recording by searching the disc for the loudness part and playing it for a few seconds so you can set the proper recording level.
  • CD-Tape Synchro Rec Start
    You'll have smooth recording starts each time, because Synchro Rec Start puts the deck into the recording mode a few seconds before starting CD play.
  • Disc (Intro) Scan
    Automatically plays the first 8 seconds of each disc so you can decide which to listen to first.
  • 3-Mode CD Text Display
    Get information about the CD currently playing right on the CD player's display. The 3- mode CD Text display shows the CD's title, the artist's name and the title of the track.
  • Random Play (Single/All) with Disc-to-Disc Random Play
    Use Random Play to mix selections from various discs or to hear old CDs in the new way.
  • Repeat Play (Disc Mode: Single/All; Repeat Mode: Single/Full)
    To hear your favorite songs again or just for back ground music, this versatile changer gives you a variety of options.
  • Music/Skip/Index Search
    Music and Skip Search lets you find songs quickly, while Index Search moves the pickup to the index marks encoded on some discs.

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.
  • Remote controllable digital volume control including headphone volume
  • Optical digital output and variable analog output

Nice Product - with one small exception
By RonW from Schaumburg, IL on 01/18/2010.
Pros: Attractive Design, Doesn't Skip, Easy To Set Up, Great Sound
Best Uses: Audiophiles, Basic Systems
Describe Yourself: Tech Savvy, Audiophile
The product works very well but it would be easier to use if the remote sensor, and associated display, were located above the disc tray. With the tray open, you cannot see the display and you must hold the remote below the open tray before it is functional. The random disc selection feature is excellent in that it not only creates random selections within a disc but it also randomizes multiple discs.

Best Uses: Basic Systems, Smaller Rooms, Audiophiles, Larger Rooms
Pros: Great Sound, Attractive Design, Easy Controls, Changer operates quickly
Describe Yourself: Practical
Play audio CD's
Great basic 5-disc player.
By Bill, the Nuke from Jackson, TN on 09/26/2008.
Best Uses: Basic Systems
Cons: Can't rotate while open
Pros: Doesn't Skip, Easy To Set Up, Attractive Design, Great Sound
Describe Yourself: Tech Savvy, Practical, Audiophile
I use this in a basic system: 4 speakers (2 each side), Yamaha receiver. Used for reading and casual listening, not audiophile. Very solid unit with a good sound, no skipping, quick loading, quiet mechanism. I was able to easily program my Yamaha receiver remote to operate this unit. I don't like the carousel. I can't find a way to rotate it while the tray is open, and it's tricky to load the 2 "back" slots without dropping the disc.
I would buy this product again
By Jeff from Tulsa on 01/19/2008.
Best Uses: Audiophiles, Basic Systems
Pros: Durable, Great Sound, Easy Controls, Doesn't Skip, Easy To Set Up
Describe Yourself: Practical
Great player for the money, solid construction, flawless operation, plays dual discs, cd-r's, very low noise.
Good Unit (after first 1 was defective)
By Yamaha CD Purchaser from Chicago, IL on 08/14/2007.
Pros: Easy Controls, Easy To Set Up
Describe Yourself: Musically Inclined, Tech Savvy
Cons: Reliability
First unit that I purchased didn't read the CDs. Evidently, the laser was bad.After exchanging [...], the unit now works well. Exchanging CDs is very easy and the player switches between CDs quicker than unit that I used to have. Unit is easy to use, although some functions are only accessable on the remote control.
