Sony DVP-CX850D Multi-disc DVD Player

Pros: holds up to 200 CD/DVD
Cons: will not play CD-R or RW media

Your discs just keep piling up. With a DVD/CD changer such as the Sony DVP-CX850D, you can store up to 200 discs in the player. All of your DVDs and CDs (or at least 200 of them) will be at your fingertips. No more sorting through your collection for...

Pros: 200 DVDs, Folders, Easy to use interface
Cons: Big, Interface is slow

I bought this DVD player when my collection was at about 50, thinking "It'll take forever to buy 150 more DVDs." Oh, how wrong was I? But, I'm not talking about that here.
The first thing I'll mention, which is the obvious feature, is that it...

Pros: Holds 200 DVD's and/or CD's!!
Cons: Onscreen Navigation a little slow

I only have about 50 DVD's right now, but what I love about this player is that I can put all of the DVD's in the changer, put the box in cold storage, and watch whatever I want whenever I want! I really saves a lot of shelf space. Do you know how much...

Pros: Convenient storage for CDs and DVDs, image quality & sound
Cons: Be careful if using with a Sony receiver!!

I purchased an ES series receiver with the 200 disc dvd/cd changer. The lower ES series receiver comes with a handy remote that (supposedly) controls all of Sony's products and many products from other manufacturers.

What I didn't know was...

Pros: 200 DVD changer, sound
Cons: Picture, GUI

After my DVD collection hit 140, I decided to go out and buy a DVD changer that could handle this many DVD's. I decided to go with Sony's 200 DVD changer after having good luck with Sony products.

Needless to say, entering 200 discs and then...

Pros: nice picture
Cons: it's really, really big

I thought that a DVD changer would be a great thing to have especially if it holds 200 dvd's. So when I found out that Sony was coming out with a DVD changer--not 5 or 6 discs, but 200, I was excited. So I went to pick one up when it was available for...

Pros: plain and simple, it allows you to put 200 dvd's in one player
Cons: The player is too big for an average entertainment rack system.

The 200 dvd/cd changer is a lifesaver (actually spacesaver)! It lets you keep your dvd's all in one box and lets you select by title, disc #, or type of film. The disc explorer option makes it different from any other dvd player. It also has more...

Pros: Great for DVD storage.Loads of features.
Cons: Power this unit up it auto plays last Disc.

I bought the Sony 850D in December of "99". I've read the other opinions, and after owning this unit, I'd have to say that I found a few flaws in it.
Number one: This is purely a 200 DVD changer. Why? The 850 forces you to use the on...

Pros: Easy to use, organized, saves space
Cons: Small lag when scrolling through list of Disks in player.

I recently got this DVD Player for Christmas, and it definitely has some awesome features. First of all, it holds up to 200 DVD's, CD's, or Video CD's. This is very nice for anyone who has a large collection of Compact Disks (or DVD's or Video CD's)....

Pros: 200 CDs/DVDs. Awesome quality
Cons: Size

I got one of these about a week ago. It is my first DVD player and I got it because I have a huge collection (150-170) of CDs. What this allowed me to do is retire my old CD player and replace it with the DVD. I simply put all of my CDs in there and...

Pros: good storage
Cons: no CDrs, disc changing is difficult

We bought this DVD player because of its ability to hold 200 CDs and/or DVDs. We got rid of our regular CD player and now use this as both our CD Player and DVD PLayer. It is great for that reason alone. There are a few drawbacks however. It is not...

Pros: The speaker management capabilities. The Video NR and adjustments. Title management on-screen. CONVENIENCE. Dolby Digital 5.1 descete outputs for a Dolby Digital ready receiver.
Cons: It's a bit big, but I made it fit in my stereo cabinet. Once I have 200 DVDs, I guess I will have to buy another DVP-CX850D.

I had a Toshiba DVD player with Dolby Digital output. I hooked my receiver up with 6 channel descrete(5.1) and turned it on. First thing I noticed was compatability problems with certain disc. Some would not play in Dolby Digital mode. Some would not...

Pros: Disc Capacity
Cons: Controls

I looked at a couple of different products and finally decided on this one because of the disc capacity. After getting it home and setup I too noticed the cumbersome controls used to enter the titles I guess I expected it to automatically grab all of the...

Pros: Space saving, onscreen disc explorer, DTS sound
Cons: Entering titles and time to learn all the features

I waited for a year for Sony to bring out a 5 disc DVD player with DTS. When they did (DVP-C650D) they also brought out something I hadn't even dreamt about the 200 disc changer/player. Although the first one I got had a defective changer mechanism,...

Pros: Space saver
Cons: expensive for non-DVD collectors

200 disc DVD player that also plays CD'S. Why not? Purchased at 799.00, you could not ask for a much better offer from Sony. In my experience this player has it's ups and downs as like all the rest. First, you can load it to the max and has almost every...
