Customer Ratings & Reviews

This is a good quality, reasonably priced 6-CD player that is fairly easy to set up but a little confusing for me to use with the remote.

The most economical CD player available, while also providing some of the most advanced CD player functionality on the market. Set up and installation was a breeze, the remote is very functional, and the CD plays as well as the best CD player available.

After 25 years my old Pioneer 6 disc cartridge player finally gave up. I checked Pioneer's website but they no longer made a CD changer like my old one. I then searched the internet for CD player changers and started reading reviews. The one feature I loved about my old Pioneer was the ability to play random tracks from random CD's. The Onkyo DX-C390 fit the bill and the reviews were positive by in large. We play CD's every evening when we can sit on the patio, sip a glass of wine and listen to our music. The random play works wonderfully and the sound is crisp and clear. I didn't realize how tired my old Pioneer had gotten but this Onkyo unit is a wonderful replacement.

Sadly this is the only multi-disc CD changer/player that I could find anywhere to replace my prior unit, which died, I guess nobody plays CDs anymore! However the unit is sturdy, has great sound quality, and matched up well with my receiver and cassette player (!) that are also both made by Onkyo. Their components usually last a long, long time. The only drawback to this unit (as opposed to the SONY 5-CD player I had previously) is that it does not display the number of tracks/current track playing on the display, a feature that I used a lot on the SONY. It will tell you the CD has 12 tracks, but you won't know which track is actually playing. Oh well, better than nothing!

This is the third, maybe the fourth of these Onkyo CD players that I’ve had. So, I suppose you could say I like them. Well, the features are pretty good. You can change all the discs except the playing disc without stopping the music. Nifty enough, but the cost is that this is an extra deep machine. You need to make allowance for it on your shelving. It also seems to be a little slow on rotating around and reading discs. But the big issue is that they only last perhaps five years. I took my last one apart to see why it didn’t work any longer. As far as I could see it was just one cheap plastic cog that had failed. But the machine was not going back together so I had to buy a new one. Here’s the truth, unless you go up to real audiophile machines for more dollars, this is about the only budget multi-player around - so you’re kind of stuck. I sure wish they lasted longer.

I found this 6-disc CD player to have all of the features I need including random play capability. Installation was straight forward and easily connected to my other components. Not my number one criteria, but I find it attractive as well. I have not had this unit long enough to comment on reliability but the sound quality works well with my amp and speakers.

I was needing a new player when I found this CD changer (Onkyo DX-C390). However, I read with trepidation reviews saying it displayed a high frequency prominence. Taking the previous information into consideration my decision to purchase was greatly influenced by its sale price which was a very nice reduction below regular pricing. Also in its favor, other reviews mentioned the player operated with a finesse that was matched by few other players. When I first listened I had to agree the sound was somewhat out of kilter, tilted appreciably toward the top end. However, after some break-in time, the playback became noticeably smoother and better balanced. The sound has improved through out my ownership (several months). It no longer produces the strident upper octaves as it did when it was new. I haven't just become used to its sound because I have other players to compare. Its handling of the six discs is impecable. It performs with a surety that inspires confidence in the handling of my discs. Overall, I couldn't be happier with my purchase.

Bought this to play my large collection of holiday and regular CDs. Picked up a pair of plug in speakers also as this is being used as a standalone system. Easy to set up, controls are easy to navigate and sound quality is smooth and clear. We have high ceilings and the music fills the rooms easily without any distortion. Good value for the money.

I purchased this Onkyo CD player to replace an old Sony 60 CD player that lasted us many years. It was an AM/FM, CD player with its own speakers. I couldn't find anything like it so we decided to get a standard multiplayer for our receiver. I've had Onkyo products in the past and considered them to be high end equipment. This CD player was easy to set up and easy to use. It also looks really nice. The only thing I find as a slight issue, is that it seems to be very sensitive and skips relatively easily. The first day I got it, my 6 year old granddaughter wanted to hear one of her cds and she began dancing around a bit and the CD would skip. I didn't think too much about it then because she was really jumping around, but the next day, I played one my own cds and as I was just walking near the player, it skipped a couple of times. We live in an older home with hardwood floors so there is always some vibration, but I would think that the dampening mechanism in this player would be able to handle some vibration. Apparently not as much as you would think. It is however a very nice player and looks good as well. Just don't play "Old McDonald" for your 6 year old granddaughter with it.

It operates very smooth and quietly. It’s got all the right functions and everything I was looking for. The sound quality is superb, and it looks great! I was replacing a Sony CD player that lasted me 15 years. I believe I’ve found the right one!

Bought this to add a cd play to my stereo system. Was easy to add to reciever and was able to set up in minutes. Cd player can hold up to 6 cds in row and comes with a remote. Great for long music play and you can even change cds while the current cd is playing, making it great to keep the music going. Would recommend to anyone.

Just as advertised. The unit was easy to install and sounds great. It is a bit larger, deeper, than other units but it still fit ok in my cabinet.

With one hundred+ CDs in our library going back 30 years, we had stopped playing them when our Sony 5-CD carousel died after 25 years. We played singles occasionally on our DVD player, but it was a hassle. Like playing LP records or 45s. Being able to load 6 CDs and have random play creates a surprise playlist every time. Great quality and sound. It's like having old friends back in the house.

Works as expected, so far no problems, easy set up. Plays well. Only problem was it was a bit bigger than previous one and had to remove the door of the entertainment cabinet because it sticks out about an inch farther than cabinet allows for. But, been listening to a lot over the holidays and very happy so far.

Onkyo makes quality products. This CD player allows you to put six disks in and random play through the songs. It is like having your own personal music station to listen to, with no commercials. The quality is excellent and it is fairly easy to use. I would recommend this to anyone who wants a disk changer!

With the ease-of-use that comes along with streaming music, most people have forgotten thet CDs, tapes, and vinyl are still alive and sound way better. Smart speakers are nice, but nothing beats a good stereo, and there's something about selecting what album you want to listen to and firing it up that makes the experience more special. Having said that, and stepping off the soap box, we bought this CD changer because we listen to our rather large CD collection and wanted something to replace our aging single-disc Technics player. I had some doubts at first, but this Onkyo works very well and sounds terrific. It's proof that you can find a good-sounding CD changer without paying through the nose for it. Honestly, there's nothing bad to say about it.

It's wonderful to see Onkyo continue to manufacture a 6-Disc CD Player. My CD's sound great when played through this unit, along with my analog Yamaha amplifier and Infinity speakers. The Onkyo unit is designed very well, functions perfectly, and was easy to install. I am exceptionally pleased with this product, and it was terrific that BestBuy had it available for purchase in-store for pick-up.

It is getting hard to find a multi disc CD Player. This Onkyo hold 6 discs, is easy to use and sounds great. It is large, check your cabinet or shelf size. Recommended.

Awesome Piece of Electronics.High Quality and Very Well Built.Holds 6 CD’s on a Carousel,Just What We Were Looking For.Holds More CD’s Than Any Other on The Market Today With A Carousel. Great Buy !!!

Works pretty good. Fairly easy to figure out. Runs a bit slower than my old Sony CD player that eventually bit the dust after 20 years of use. I use it to play my music during my magic show at my business at the Magic Fun House Castle. I hope this CD player holds up at least as long as my old one. Had a few issues with what appeared to be a spot of grease get on a few of my CDs somehow. Figured it came from the internal mechanisms factory grease that didn't get cleaned off during assembly. Hope that doesn't happen anymore. But I love it so far and I like having the six disc CD changer instead of my old five. Thanks for the speedy delivery to the store after I ordered it. *<{;-}>
