I have 4 of these and about 12 other brand, horizontal single and multi disk players. (Used in my vacation rentals) This DVD player would be top of the line in 2001 when it was released. Now (2013) things have changed. Sure it still works great on my old (up to year 2003) DVD disks. That is providing my old disks do not have any scratches. That is because this vertical disk position player (all 4 of them) is way more sensitive to scratches than my horizontal players. Seriously, many disks will skip in this player, even after performing a re-align of the laser but they play just fine in all the other players. Still an auto player is hard to find these days. On the other hand, this player will not auto play most new DVD’s. Actually it will not even play some of today’s DVD’s at all. I am not talking about blue ray. I am talking about HD DVD such as double density. The reality is: Running this – keeping these 12 year old units working requires a bit no a lot of technical skill. Realistically this is an end of life product. If you do not need it for a specialized application.Read full review
We purchased this sturdy DVD changer new well over a decade ago thinking it would last forever and we would never come close to filling it. Well, we were wrong about last part. Some of the perceived shortfalls of this unit are just due to its pre-HD age: HDMI?, not even invented yet. Upscaling?, to what, a CRT? Blu-Ray?, hah, local Blockbuster stores only rented VHS tapes when this guy was designed. But Sony did pack this player with then state-of-the art component video and digital outputs (in addition to dual composite and S-Video outputs.) Hooking it up to any modern AV/HT system should be a snap. If you have a large collection of old-fashioned DVDs, this unit can still provide one-touch access to all of them through an intuitive Disc Explorer feature. Our DVD collection has some early single layer media titles which are double-sided. On a standard player you would have to eject the disc and flip it to access the other side which may contain the rest of the movie or special features. Not so with the DVP-CX860, press the FLIP button on the remote, viola, the disc is flipped within the changer and playback continues. Have an extensive CD collection as well? You can daisy chain another Sony CD/DVD changer and control them through this unit's Mega Control feature. Although our collection has since spilled over into a more modern Sony DVP-CX995V before just going digital; this old workhorse still sees its share of action, providing the same great video and sound it did when new. TL;DR: Pros - * Component Video Output. * Coaxial and Optical Digital Audio Output. * Disc Explorer * Flips old double-sided DVDs to play! * Mega Control allows daisy chaining. * Built like a tank! Cons - * BIG, may not fit your entertainment centerRead full review
