I dunno, I've never actually heard a CDX-91 but its supposed to be the best
in tems of build quality and sound quality since it is old-skool. However I
have heard some reports that it isn't good at playing CD-Rs (eventhough
technically speaking ANY CD-R should work in ANY CD player)... It doesn't
have text either and I would imagine because of its age its error correction
wouldn't be too hot. If you don't have any text CDs (there aren't many
anyway--only the Sony labels have it) and if all your CDs are "pressed" and
in pristine condition (probably about as rare for most people as CD-Text!)
then you'll be okay with the CDX-91.
I'd say for all overall build quality + features, get a CDX-805 (if you can
find one in good condition)... The 805 has ESP instead of the Advanced ESP
the later models carry but models like the CDX-828/838 had some very minor
problems. I think it was fixed with the 838 but I'm not sure. The 727
being the same unit w/o optical out had the same problem. It has to do with
a micro switch that detects the cartridge. Some units fail because of this
switch and the memory gets lost so if you turn off your car and come back
later for some reason the changer will not start where you left off but
rather at disc1 track 1 at 0:00 :(
This little quirk has actually happened on my 828 a few times but not
often--in fact I can't remember the last time it happened. BUT there have
been many reports of this happening with this particular changer
unfortunately.
If you need CD-R/W support you might want to check out the CDX-848X (again
I'm not sure if it does support RW but some of the people on the list have
this model I think so maybe they can comment?). Downside is it looks a bit
"out there"!
Yeah but if you've got CDs with some good scratches on them plus some CD-Rs
you'd want to play in the car, I'd go with the CDX-805. It is a great
changer, optical output, CD-TEXT support. I'd recommend it.
Alternatively you might want to check out a CDX-715 if you don't want/can't
use the optical out considering you already have an optical-out changer...
