I love it so far as a CD mostly. I did just pick up a two disc "Once Upon a Time in the West" So, we'll see about the changing disc's. |
Hey Tiny! the DVL-700's came out in 1996, the step up from the 700 in the same year was the DVL-90 Elite with all copper Chassis and Rosewood sides with Urushi finished front panel. That copper is what drove the price up on those beasts. Plus a few internal revisions and upgrades. It was a good $500 more than the 700. The final hurrah was the DVL-919 in and the DVL-91 Elite in 1998. I would love to get my hands on one of those DVL-V888 Karaoke Ones! Those shared the same chassis as the DVL-909, but are quite different functionally.
