Does anyone know anything good/bad about the Nakamichi MB-75?

It's their in-dash 6 disc cd changer/tuner.
I really want a cd changer, but having one in the trunk is a pain.

I saw one in a Nak sponsered truck. Was really nice. If you have the money I say go for it.

Never heard anything bad about Nak, except that their speakers aren't up to par with the rest of their products. I wouldn't expect you would have any problems with it.

On some of the BMW forums, I have read good and bad about the MB-75. The "bad" mainly dealt with the durability of the unit (i.e., it keeps breaking down all the time), the speed at which the changer changes CDs (slow, about 20 seconds), the 2V preamp outputs, and the fact that "random" play only works only with all six discs and not with just one disc at a time. The "good" mainly dealt with the convenience (I'll admit -- having six CDs and not having to worry about a magazine is almost tempting me to ditch my Alpine in-dash 3CD head unit) and the "famous" (or is that "infamous"...or maybe it's "legendary") Nakamichi sound quality.
