A disc changer for sequentially playing back a plurality of discs such as compact discs has a circular tray rotatably mounted on a base, for supporting a plurality of discs replaceably on a horizontal surface. A drive mechanism rotates the tray and and stops the tray to position one of the discs in a playback position. A recorded signal is reproduced from the disc in the playback position by a pickup. The pickup is vertically moved and stopped in a predetermined vertical position by a lifting/lowering mechanism. A pickup cover is disposed over the tray in covering relation to the pickup and the disc in the playback position. The disc changer also has a dust cover hinged to the base, for covering at least the tray, the dust cover having a transparent window extending over the tray.
