Sony DAV-FR9
Sony offers a wide range of Dream System HTIBs, but the sony dav-FR9, which retails for $800, is our pick of the bunch. Sony's stylists gave it a sleek look, though you should be aware that the FR9's receiver-cum-five-disc-changer consumes a space-hogging 16 inches of shelf depth. Eschewing the traditional loading-tray mechanism, Sony opted for a slot-loading system--you simply feed each disc into the slot. Press Eject, and the disc gently swivels out. It's very cool and high tech, and so is the slim remote, which presents only the most essential buttons for everyday use and hides everything else under a slip-down cover. On a more critical note, the disc changer is a slow chugger--it can take 30 seconds to get to the next disc.
The four 43-inch-tall tower speakers, clad in an aluminum finish with gray grilles, are elegantly designed and largely responsible for the system's sleek appearance. They come with their bases already mounted, so for once we didn't have to exercise a screwdriver to get the speakers up and running. A 14-inch-wide matching center speaker completes the main speaker array, and the subwoofer's silver finish and sculptured front panel visually complement the receiver/changer and the towers. This 20.7-pound boomer measures 7.9 inches wide, 14.5 inches high, and 17.6 inches deep. The towers and the center speaker all feature the same 2.75-inch woofer and 1-inch tweeter, while the subwoofer has two 6.3-inch woofers.
Though the 106-page manual isn't quite as straightforward as we'd have liked, the setup chores aren't too arduous, and this is system is a bit easier to get up and running than the step-up DAV-FR10W, which duplicates all of the FR9's features but adds a pair of wireless tower surround speakers to the system.
The receiver/changer's digital amplifier delivers 114 watts per channel to each speaker and 115 watts to each of the subwoofer's two woofers. Surround processing runs the gamut from 5.1-channel Dolby Digital to Dolby Pro Logic II to DTS to, get this, Dolby EX and DTS ES 6.1-channel processing. We were surprised by the 6.1-decoding capabilities because the receiver has only five main amplifier channels. To take advantage of the 6.1 capabilities, you'll need to hook up a separate amplifier and speaker to the receiver/changer. Oh, and the five-disc changer plays Super Audio CDs (SACDs), MP3s and JPEGs. Unfortunately, basic amenities such as bass and treble controls or even a subwoofer-level control didn't make the cut - sony hdr.
Connectivity is limited to the standard set of video outputs (including progressive-scan component), one Optical Digital audio input, and two stereo analog inputs. That's a pretty skimpy selection for an $800 HTIB and barely adequate for small home theaters.
We were surprised that for a "lifestyle" system, the DAV-FR9 sounded as good as it did. The musical numbers on the Chicago DVD sounded fantastic, even when we nudged the volume up to seriously loud levels. The scene on the Gangs of New York DVD where the U.S. Navy fires cannon rounds at the street gangs was fearsomely presented with excellent surround ambiance. Sony's older Dream Systems never delivered this much power and clarity.

Will a aftermarket headunit be able to control my 6 disc cd changer?
I have an infini qx4 1998, with stock bose system. It has a stock alpine 6 disc cd changer and I wanna replace the headunit but keep cd changer controls. So I wanna know is this possible. I need a headunit that is name brand and has sub preamp outs. I heard that alpine headunits would work, but I don't know how true this is. Someone please help me.
It should work ... but the question is , is it a M-BUS or AI-Net changer . here's what a M-BUS cable looks like :

here's an AI-Net cable :
http://www.crutchfield.com/App/Product/Item/Photos/Default.aspx?i=500KWA100B&tp=1184
If it is a M-BUS changer ... I think you are out of luck . Can't find an adapter to the newer AI-Net radios to older M-BUS changer . They have one opposite to that , but not what you need . You might find a CDM-xxxx model number used radio , but other than that ... you would need to replace it .

Denon DCM-290 CD/CD-R/RW 5 Disc Changer
As far as the Denon CDS unit, it works fine and performs all the elementary tasks that a 5 CD changer should do. We purchased this package because we had an earlier version of that model for about 15 years before it finally gave up the entity. We would desire faster switching between songs when the Denon CD than the older model was actually faster than this one. However, since it's exactly like our older unit, except for the shape of the buttons (even the old remote works on the new unit), we didn't have to re-learn how to manage it.
The value of the system is not consistent with Denon CDS past history as a builder of quality components. The ability to play MP3 CDRW discs is nice. It's also nice to be able to replace the other 4 discs while 1 disc continues to play.
Nevertheless, a few points make this an vexatious choice. Firstly, the unit is slow to operate. The disc changing motor is conservative. And you cannot cue up multiple "next disc" commands to cycle through the discs, which again makes cycling through your discs slow as you wait for each individual disc.
But even more annoying is that the "Disc Sequential Random Play" operation (listed on page 10 of the manual) doesn't even work! We have spent hours trying to convince Denon CDS technical support that there's a problem with their firmware, but to no avail. They only insist that it's a problem with our particular unit. This being after they admit that they don't even have a DCM-290 unit at their site to test! Last time we were at Best Buy, we tested the DCM-290 they had on display -- guess what? -- same problem. Basically, this unit has a bug in its software, and Denon refuses to fix it. But of course, Denon willingly continues to sell it!
So, if you don't mind a slow changer that won't cue commands, and a player that only performs some of the functions listed in its manual... Well, maybe this Denon CD is the merchandise for you. But if you're absolutely looking for a quality CD changer, you're preferably off looking somewhere else. We give this Denon CDS a 2/5 note.
