Yamaha CD-C600 5-Disc CD Changer with USB & iPod Compatibility — Open Box, Never Removed from Packaging
A rare Yamaha 5-disc CD changer with PlayXchange convenience, USB playback, and classic hi-fi styling for collectors and serious CD listeners
The Yamaha CD-C600 is a full-size 5-disc carousel CD changer built for people who still want a dedicated home audio source instead of relying only on streaming. It supports standard CDs plus CD-R/RW discs, MP3 and WMA playback, USB playback, and iPod connectivity, while Yamaha’s PlayXchange system lets you swap discs without stopping the music. Yamaha also gave it audiophile-friendly touches like Pure Direct playback, a high-performance DAC, and a clean signal-path design.
This model offers the kind of usability many newer systems no longer do: five-disc capacity, front USB access, CD Text display, optical digital output, analog stereo RCA output, and classic component dimensions that fit properly into a stereo rack. Official specs list a 5-disc carousel design, 106 dB signal-to-noise ratio, 0.003% harmonic distortion, 10 Hz–20 kHz frequency response, and a 6.2 kg chassis.

The factory inner packing is present, and the accessory/document pack appears to still be sealed in the box, as shown in the photos.

Why Buy This One?
A lot of CD players on the market now are older used units with unknown wear, missing remotes, or tray issues. This one stands out because it is an open box and appears never removed from the factory packaging, which is much harder to find for a discontinued Yamaha model like this. It is a strong option for anyone building a two-channel stereo, adding a dedicated disc source to a receiver, or replacing an aging multi-disc player with something more refined.
