*US* BUYERS IGNORE MESSAGE ABOVE SAYING THERE IS TARIFFS FOR THE BUYER THAT IS NOT TRUE! I PREPAY ALL US BUYER TARIFFS NO TARIFFS FOR YOU TO PAY, YOU PAY IS ONLY AT CHECKOUT NO HIDDEN FEES* Experience the vintage charm of the Denon DCM-340 5-Disc CD Changer Player, a testament to classic audio engineering from 1993. This robust unit, serviced with meticulous attention to detail, is a fine addition to any home audio setup. Its CD changer feature allows for seamless playback of multiple CDs, making it an ideal choice for enthusiasts who appreciate a touch of nostalgia and the quality that Denon is known for.Included with the player is the original remote, ensuring full functionality and ease of use. The Denon DCM-340 model integrates effortlessly into your existing home audio system, offering both an auditory and aesthetic upgrade. With its sleek design and reliable performance, this CD player is a bundle that promises to deliver an authentic audio experience.
New, the Denon DCM-340 was a mid-1990s five-disc changer rather than a premium modern player; at USD 134, this listing is a little above the roughly USD 125 observed used benchmark, but still within the normal range for a tested example. It is fair rather than a bargain, and would need a remote and confirmed operation to justify the ask.
Its appeal is straightforward: Denon’s solid build, smooth carousel mechanism, and competent internal DAC make it an enjoyable, fuss-free player for a physical-disc system. The five-disc capacity is genuinely convenient, especially for background listening. Before buying, verify that all five positions load, the tray opens cleanly, every disc indexes and plays without skipping, and the remote is included if you care about full control. At USD 134, a fully working, clean unit with remote is reasonable; without testing or accessories, negotiate lower.

Denon traces its origins to 1910, when American entrepreneur Frederick Whitney Horn founded Japan's first audio equipment company, Nipponophone, initially focused on gramophones and records. The Denon brand emerged in 1939 from the merger of Japan Denki Onkyo—combining "den" for electricity and "on" for sound—with other entities, marking a shift toward professional audio development. This heritage includes pioneering Japan's first professional disc recorder in 1945, used to capture Emperor Hirohito's voice, and launching the nation's first long-playing records in 1951.
The brand excels across a broad spectrum of hi-fi categories, from amplifiers, turntables, and tuners to loudspeakers, cassette decks, and phono cartridges. Denon's innovations extend to digital frontiers, such as the world's first practical PCM recorder in the early 1970s, the inaugural CD player in 1981, and early home theater systems with Dolby Digital in 1995. Today, its lineup encompasses AV receivers, headphones, wireless streaming solutions like HEOS, and high-channel processors, blending professional-grade components with consumer accessibility.
Denon holds a commanding position as a mid-to-high-end mainstay in the hi-fi market, revered for its blend of technological firsts, robust build quality, and balanced sound signatures that appeal to discerning enthusiasts. No longer a vintage collector's niche, it competes confidently against premium rivals, backed by over a century of audio leadership and strategic partnerships like its merger with Marantz.
