Is there a good 5 disc CD player out there ???

I'll sell you my sony 595 for $5K !!!!!!!!!!!

The Sony-C555ES is the best I've heard and can be had for less than $500 used ($2000.00 new?). I think it was discontinued in 05?? I don't know of any Co. making high end multi disc players. The Sony was rated class "A" by Stereophile when it came out in the early part of this century.I never tried using it as a transport...but it sounded pretty good on it's own for Christmas and party music and times you want to put 5 discs in random mode and work around the house.

True, this was a rarely rated Class "A" SACD 5 Disc

Changer,(Stereophile) which in itself, should imply it's abilities.

I use the Sony -C555ES SACD 5 Disc changer, with my

Benchmark Dac-1, with fabulous results.

As the secondary player now,The previous Sony XA-7ES is now replaced by the Marantz SA-11S2

with the Level 2 Underwood Mods.

The Sony-C555ES is one of several ES changers I have owned.

But until the 555ES, the others skipped, after while,

so far, this one is pretty darn dependable.

The Sound is Phenomenal for the price, they go for now.

SACD is Awesome, and with the Benchmark, even RedBook CD's

now, are "musical" finally.

For a "changer", this is the ONLY one, I can say,

delivers genuine "Hi-Fi" Sound!

IMHO, a Bargain Today, if you see one, in good

condition, Grab It!

I have seen them for as low as $100.

Great for playing several discs, while being a "host",

so you don't have to keep changing, when company is over.

The 555ES can make "Music" in SACD or RedBook with the

Benchmark Dac-1,And I am hard to please!

Love Your Music!

I Sure Am!

There are some very good modded 5 disc CD players out there. I own two. A Sony-C555ES SACD with the SACDMODS Statement mod, and a Sony SCD-CE775 SACD player that was modded by Larry Moore. Now both of these players sound alot better than there stock versions IMHO. I tried to sell the Larry Moore player here and no takers. I was asking more than the $100.00 dollar going rate that has been stated in this post. All I can say is "Thank God for unanswered prayers". I would not been able to find anything near it's sound quality plus the conveious of a 5 disc player with SACD for what I was asking for it. I for one don't think a 5 disc player is going the way of the Dodo bird.

The Rotel RCC-1055 is a very good changer - brother to the siingle player RCD-1072 - a very highly regarded CDP.
