I was looking to get a CD changer for my D2, and filling it with MP3 cds labeled #-C, D-F, ect. ect., and folders with the artists, so it would be like having my iPod hooked up but with much easier control.

I thought I read somewhere that the Pioneer CD changers don't play MP3 cds like the D2 does? Is this true? Will I be able to set up folders and then read the folders with the track info if the CD is in the changer?

Also, do the changers have both an IP bus in and out? I have one item that already has only an IP bus out, so would I be able to hook up both somehow?

The CD Changers play audio CD's only.

Also the changers only have a pbus out, so you wouldn't be able to hook a changer up and whatever it is you have that only has an output.

Damn :twisted:


Pioneer really needs to update their CD changers.

Hopefully they'll come out with a new one soon, although I'm not hopeful considering they probably hope you'll spend $600 on the DVD changer instead.

Years and years ago (at least five), they made some high-end changers with a p-bus in and out. Probably hard to find but you might look on ebay. Used 24 bit d/a converters too, unlike todays

Now that I think sbout it, didn't their 50 disc changers have and in and out? Or am I just losing my mind?

Well if they don't play MP3 cds, then its not really of any use to me even if it did have an IP-bus in and out.


Thanks for your help
