Recently tested and used Sony DVP-CX777ES 400-disc mega changer that plays DVDs, standard CDs, and multi-channel Super Audio CDs (SACDs). Seems to be in good working order. This was only tested with CD's. Has a lot of options that are explained in information available on the internet. Overall good cosmetic condition with a few light scrapes. All corners good. All feet intact. Sold as is with no guarantees for future/extended use. Remote IS included.USA Sales Only/ Please ask any any all questions before buying As with any electronic unit of this age, this item is sold AS-IS, but guaranteed not DOA. Not D.O.A. means that the unit is guaranteed to power on, but NO GUARANTEE is made as to the performance of the unit during future extended use due to possible shipping damage or mishandling.No returns on this item unless it is not as described.Good chance this will ship Fedex ground or Fedex Home Delivery as opposed to UPS, unless buyer specifies a specific carrier.
At US$375, this is an ambitious ask, sitting well above the US$229 75th-percentile comparable and more than triple the US$115 median. It only makes sense if the unit is fully tested, exceptionally clean, and includes the correct remote.
The appeal is real: this ES-series changer holds 400 discs and supports CD, DVD, and stereo/multichannel SACD, with strong digital and analog connectivity. It is a superb library-management machine for a collector, but its size, dated interface, and mechanical complexity limit the audience. At this price, insist on confirmed loading, carousel operation, reading of several discs, working remote, and clean outputs; otherwise, negotiate sharply or wait for a better example.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Sony emerged from the ruins of post-World War II Japan, founded on May 7, 1946, by Masaru Ibuka and Akio Morita as Tokyo Tsushin Kogyo K.K. in Tokyo's Nihonbashi district. Starting with radio repairs and Japan's first magnetic tape recorder, the duo secured transistor licensing from Bell Labs, pioneering the TR-55 transistor radio in 1955. Renamed Sony Corporation in 1958—from the Latin "sonus" for sound—the brand symbolized Japan's ascent from cheap imitations to innovative leadership, fueled by Ibuka's engineering prowess and Morita's global marketing vision.
Sony's hi-fi legacy spans headphones, amplifiers, speakers, turntables, and DACs, alongside landmark formats like the Compact Disc in 1982 and Blu-ray. Iconic products include the Walkman for portable audio revolution and Trinitron televisions, blending consumer accessibility with cutting-edge tech. Today, offerings like the Signature Series headphones and ES amplifiers target discerning listeners seeking refined soundstaging and dynamic range.
Positioned as a mid-to-high-end powerhouse, Sony commands respect among knowledgeable buyers for blending mass-market reliability with premium performance, outpacing many pure audiophile brands in innovation and value. Far from vintage relic or niche boutique, it dominates with forward-thinking engineering, holding strong market share in headphones and streaming ecosystems.
