I wouldn't buy it again. This unit had great sound, but died after a couple of years of very light use.
It lasted one year after the warranty ended with very little use. I had to repeatedly take the unit in for repair during the warranty period. From this point on, I will only purchase receivers made by Onkyo. I purchased this unit 2 years ago. You would expect a product from Onkyo to be reliable for a long time.
The carousel tray operates very smoothly and you can open it up and change CD's while one CD is playing. I have used both the analog and digital outputs (both optical and digital coax) and have had no problems. I purchased a new unit over 4 years ago and since that time it has performed flawlessly. The remote has always functioned perfectly as well. Perhaps the latest production units have skimped on quality or something but the one I have had for over 4 years has never given me any problems whatsoever. The unit is solidly built - the only problem may be its size. It is quite deep.
Very disappointed. Bought this based on friends referrals and written reviews and it quit working after 1 year.
I was very annoyed to discover that there is no memory button on the front.To program the play list you have to use the remote-very fiddley.Don't loose the remote.Going through a cdrom and programing is clunky , hit and miss.Never let an engineer design the user interface--as usual.Why by a 6 cd changer thats a pain the in A to program.No memory for the programed input either , so dont turn off the machine.The housing is very deep-a couple of feet.Since its 6cd it cant be helped.2 stars for such an egregious error in the programing interface.
