Reviews around buy (5.00 of 5)

  • For the price and the name it was as expected, a great buy
  • Still, a superior buy for the price and features it does have
  • This was a pretty good buy at the 2012 price, but $900 now?
  • Other than this issue for which I marked off one star, the CD player is a great buy for the price.
  • If it last as long as the original it will be a great buy.

Reviews around product (4.57 of 5)

  • 1 small scratch but otherwise a very good product for a very good price!
  • Hey if someone from Sony is reading this, why the heck don't you check these products before putting them in a box if the failure rate is 10%?
  • Nice way for them to sell a needless product unless you are into having to have a receiver
  • But I bet this would have been a good product as it is a Sony and we trust Sony's products.

Reviews around review (1.83 of 5)

  • If this review was helpful, I would appreciate if you clicked that it was.
  • I saw some bad reviews and some good ones and thought I'd play the odds.
  • If it seems that virtually every item you look at has some bad reviews, tht is because of supply side economics where the huge international mega-corporations have cut quality control to increase profits.
  • Some people apparently have had no problems, but with so many negative reviews on this model, Sony must really rethink their approach to this product's quality
