'''Besondere Ausstattungen'''
'''Special Features'''
+
* hier, wenn vorhanden
* Sony's QS series: mid-range equipment series with upper-range and top-of-the-line units (mid-90s to early 2000s).
 
* 3 digital filter stages for the sound. The Hifi magazine Stereo (5/1999) especially praised position "2".
 
* Peak Search (peak level search) and other editing functions for dubbing
 
* displays CD text (Sony CDs, Itunes)
 
* plays CD-RW (rather rare equipment in this time)
 
* aluminium front (polished) with slightly rounded corners
 
 
 
 
 
== Remarks ==
 
* Other devices in the series:
 
** [[Sony CDP-XE320]]
 
** [[Sony CDP-XE520]]
 
** [[Sony CDP-XB920]]
 
 
 
* Predecessor unit:
 
** [[Sony CDP-XE700]]
 
 
 
* Successor device:
 
** [[Sony CDP-XB630]]
 
** [[Sony CDP-XB740]]
 
 
 
* Sony has saved on the adjustable headphone output. Digitally the Phones output can be regulated over the remote control (RM-DX50) with the digital volume control at least up to
 
-20 dB. Without this volume attenuation, e.g. hi-fi headphones around 600 Ohm are hardly usable.

== Reports ==
 
* Stereo 5/1999: sound 29%, price-performance 3 stars (excellent). "Complete equipment including CD text, CD-RW capable, metal front - respectable sound in filter position "2"."
 
* Stereoplay 3/1999: Stereoplay test verdict: very good. Sound very good, 47 points, test winner. "With the exception of a fixed-pickup drive, which noble players use to clamp the laser and move the disc above the light spot, the Sony has all the features of more expensive players. (...) In the listening test, the Sony quickly moved to the top of the test field: clean as a whistle in quiet passages, it didn't let itself get rattled even by loud levels. What's more, the sound was colourful, round and coherent. Most balanced in the filter setting "Standard". (Stereoplay 3/1999, p.47)
 
Audio 10/1998: good, upper class, 70 points, 3 ears.
