just bought this cd player for 35.00 I am very satisfied with all the lights,sound of this player.just don't have the remote.but I am still having fun listening to my music without having to change every cd.

inexpensive, can play burned cd's, optical out

loud when changing discs, the lights are constantly blinking on the thing (kind of annoying), bulky remote, no dimmer feature

It works great and sounds great. It supports all burned cd's I've thrown at it, which is why I bought it in the first place. I was a little suspicous when I first bought it, since there were no reviews online that I could find. But alas, it turned out to be a good investment. If you want a cd player (a changer at that) that sounds solid and performs well and your budget is extremely tight, then pick up this one. A pricier one would sound better obviously. But this unit is great bang/buck! The worst part about it is all the blinking lights. When a disc is playing, there are 4 different lights blinking all at the same time, all in different locations. It's distracting, but for $70 you can't complain. I deducted the overall because of those damn blinking lights, otherwise it would have been a 4.
