With a new carousel mechanism for smoother operation, the DCM-290 5-disc changer also boasts these advanced features — and all at a surprisingly affordable price:

• Audiophille-grade Burr-Brown 18-Bit D/A converters
• Built-in MP3 File Converter for playing CD-R/CD-RW discs with MP3-encoded tracks
• 32-track program memory

The DCM-290 offers the sound performance you expect from Denon along with the convenience of being able to sit back and enjoy up to 5 CDs continuously. Its high-end digital-to-analog converters give you precise, pure and practically distortion-free sound, while its new, easy-to-use and highly dependable CD mechanism lets you load up to 5 CDs at a time.

You can program up to 32 tracks from all the CDs loaded in the player, and there are selectable random and repeat play modes, too. And if you like to make and play “mix-discs,” you’re in luck — the DCM-290 will play all your homemade CD-R and CD-RW recordings, even those with MP3 and WMA files downloaded from websites.
