Hi-end CD 5-disk Changers?

Tomryan -- thanks Tom for your thoughts. I've done some more thinking and: (1)since the multi-CD disk feature is for parties, then top-shelf performance isn't required, and (2)I'd like to begin to exeriment with SACD so getting its capability with the Sony is an extra bonus. I know that this buying criteria has changed from my original thread question, and I have all of the people who responded to thank for helping clarify what my real needs are.

Jahaira -- thanks for your thoughts and retailer names. Your thread response doesn't specifically mention a product (e.g. Sony) so can I assume that you're referring to the new Sony SCD-C2000ES SACD changer that the prior post refers to?

Kevin - I have actually come to same conclusion and have bought 5 SACDs in anticipation of getting the Sony C2000 which appears to be an damn good bargin. You know, I got the idea for a multi-disc changer when, about 6 years ago, we were at a Christmas party and the homeowner had Spica TC60s in a bedroom system which used an Onkyo 6 disc changer for background music in the rear hall and bathroom area. I went in, sat down, and heard very warm musical sounds and enjoyed it quite a bit. That got me thinking and looking for a multi-disc changer even though every 'audiophile' buddy I talked to poo-poo'd it.

The inexpensive CE-595 is said to performe well too at a $149 tag. I did prefer the 2000ES because a few additional features.

ALMOST. I am looking for Hi-Quality *** DVD *** Changer. NAD best to date but I have limited comparison ability. SACD; DVD-A -- don't care.

Here is a totally different solution.
Buy an Apple Airport Express and download ITunes ont your computer.
Then you can wirelessly stream all the music you want and shuffle all day without getting up once.
Then buy a wonderful single disc player for serious listening
