Actually, it depends. Drop with your left, once and control panel on the right? Up until the ERC-3, I have only seen CD players 1 of 2 ways, with the platter dead center, or with it over to the left. Even the old Sony 5 disc changer platters were centered or offset to the left. Then Emotiva comes in and does it the other way. Strange. No no, it's backwards.  Half empty / Half full?   |

Then Emotiva comes in and does it the other way. Strange. I never gave it any thought beyond load disc here. As it is, if you physically stand centered on the player, and hit the tray open button with your right hand, I would think you need to get your hand quickly out of the way of the tray. And if you want to close it, you have to sort of wrap your hand around the tray to get to the close button (unless you push on the tray which I don't do). Of course this isn't really a problem if you stand to the left of the player. I tend to carry the disk over to the player in my right hand holding it between my thumb and middle finger, then hit tray open with my index finger. The way this thing is set up I just see knocking into the tray that's all. I truly believe it's made backwards for a right handed person. I think the fact that every other player I've ever seen either has the platter centered or to the left says a lot to this belief. |

I use my left hand to push the drawer open button and right hand to remove/replace the disc. |

Not everyone is either naturally gifted or has practiced for years, you know. |

Dual SMPS 3.3kw w/ dual 240v circuit input for over 6,000w of line input they are coming out with a 500w monoblock module where you can fit two into one chassis but why not bridge those together for 1,000w. combined that with over 500,000f of capacitance and include a box of handi-wipes and your sold. |
