In 1982 or 83 Pioneer SDLP-1 or something like that. I remember the first CD rack at Tower records had something like 20 titles surrounded by a sea of LP records. It didn't take long for them to take over. Most 20 year old kids don't even know what a record is. I wish SACD had done the same thing, but I doubt it will.
Do You Remember Your First CD Player?
I had owned the first of the first. I purchased the unit in 1982. It was a Sony CDP 101. It was the most obnoxious, raspy, annoying, piercing, grading, non-musical component I had ever heard.
Also, at the time, the complete CD library that was available consisted of about 15 CDs.
Now? I listen to my newest CD rig more than I listen to my turntable. My, how times have changed.
What was your first CD player and when did you purchase it?
