I'm looking to replace my old Sony CDP-C800ES carousel CD player, and thought I might as well add DVDA and SA-CD capability.

Does anyone have any experience with the Yamaha DVD-C750, or similar models? I have read great online reviewsof it. It will be used mostly for 2 channel CD listening.

I looked at Onkyo's and Harmon's at the local audio shop, and I was really turned off by the plastic face plates and cheap feel. How is the build quality on the Yamaha's?

Any other suggestions for a good changer? Requirements, are that it must be black, and have a metal face, and of course excellent sound quality.Under $400 would be ideal.

    I bought one alittle while ago. The sound was great and the DVD picture was also exellent. I would still have it, but I got a great deal on a Denon DVD-2900.
    If you don't need a changer type player and can get by with a single, you can find these used or "open box" for under half price.
    The sound and picture quality are the best I delt with (although I am kind of new to this compaerd to most people on this site)

    So how is the build quality? Is it all plastic? Refering to the Yamaha and the Denon.

    I've been very happy with my Yamaha, even though it's not the same model you are looking at. I think their dvd players are underrated by many.

    The build quality of the yamaha was good. The case was metal.
    I have bought Yamahas since 81' and was always happy.
    The Denon unit new was 999.00 so it 's on a differant level then the Yamaha.
