As I mentioned, I encountered the same problem. All in all, I don’t see how you can go wrong for less than 150.00 dollars.As with any product there are some negative reviews, many of which point to skipping discs. For those that want these features it is nice they are there. The Onkyo DXC390 also, offers an optical/digital port to connect the CD changer.The Onkyo has a number of programmable features I have not even used. I finally ordered the coaxial cable (not included), which is not much more money. You can get one of these for less than four dollars. I noticed an improvement when I used a Monoprice RCA/Phono audio cable I had on hand. The player comes with this cable, although it is a pretty spindly cable. Otherwise, simply use an RCA/ Phono audio connecting cable to make the connection.

The owner’s manual says this will provide the best sound, and I agree. I got it due to the good reviews (close to five stars).You should probably use a coaxial cable to connect to your receiver if your receiver or amplifier has a digital port to connect it to.
However, if you have a lot of CD’s from those years when CD’s were popular this is probably a good choice. It has a nice clear sound, although CD’s do have a mechanical sound due to their digital nature. With reasonable care vinyl records will last a lifetime, or more.Now that I have revealed my bias for vinyl, I should add that this is a nice CD changer. Certainly better than Cassette tapes, but no match for vinyl. CD’s do need to be in pretty good shape to avoid skipping.Unfortunately, the CD format is not as fool proof as we were told, when it originally came on the market. Particularly, since cleaning the questionable CD’s has corrected the problem. To be fair, the Onkyo, also, seems to skip, if the CD is not in the best shape, although I do not fault the Onkyo for this.
Our old Pioneer CD changer was always skipping, no matter which CD we chose to play. We purchased the Onkyo DXC390 CD changer to play CD’s we purchased, mostly, during those years, when everyone said vinyl was a bygone format.
