Default single CD vs 6 CD changer

Hello. Besides the single CD vs. 6 CD changer, are there any more differences between the two CD players? And if yes, is it worth the add'l $$$$

Thanks.

Kevin

Just depends on your budget or if you aren't going to upgrade your radio after you get it. I got one and I love it. Indash changers just rock but I'm going to start doing shows and stock just doesn't cut it.

Basic question is do you plan on upgrading your radio beyond OEM? If so then the indash changer is not worth it.

I'd stick with the single CD personally. It plays mp3s, so you can stash around 14-15 full albums on a single disc! Who needs 6 of those? I'm not a fan of 6-disc changers, because in my experience they get jammed, and its a pain to cycle through and try to get one out.

im on the other side of the coin i have plenty of mp3 disc and i still could use more! but thats just me. haveing a changer at least slightly satisfys my urge for variety on demand. i dont listen to the radio (maybe npr) and i listen to albums! because of that i need music on demand in high variety. my last car had a twelve disc and even that wasn't enough for me! Is it worth it i think that depends on how you listen to music.

are any other options worth it? NOOOOOOOOOOOO (especially not the cargo cover) save your cash and look at all the cool things that others have done on here! if your curious about any one thing do a search and you just might find what you need in spades.

I've got the six disc changer in my car, because I new I'd be too broke to buy something aftermarket. I love it...I listed to really random music and get bored easy, so being able to switch discs around at the push of a button is nice, and the fact it's in the dash is even better. My VW had it in the trunk, and I was always too lazy to change the discs.

I'm also really easily amused, so the fact it changes colors is cool too.

That's just my 2 cents though.
