Good sounding carrousel cd player??


For three years I have had an inexpensive Sony 200 disk player. Love the convenience but want better sound.
Do they have a good Carrousel player out there for under a thousand bucks?
Saw an add for the Sony DVP-cx777es, looks great but does it sound any good?

I third the Sony 555ES. I currently have a Sony CA80ES 5 disc carousel which is very good for the price. I bought it new 3 years ago and it has NEVER had any issues whatsoever. I really enjoy it. Sony makes a good product IMO and they have the economies of scale to make its value super high. Good luck - Arthur
A friend of mine likes Cal labs but she has lots of problems with them. She has an Icon 2 and a CL-15 and both have had 3 costly repairs EACH and since the company is history, getting them fixed isn't too easy. She said she will throw in the towel the next time one of them quits and get somthing else. I listened to them at her house and they did sound good - on par with my system (Sony CA80ES 5-disc with McIntosh/Paradigm ref). Her system was very different however so I shouldn't compare too much. I would like to audition the RCC-1055 but haven't had the chance yet so I didn't mention it above. I believe the previous model, Rotel RCC-955, was reviewed pretty well too. Arthur
