Who still listens to their First Generation Cd Players?

The sound was jaw dropping awesome. Mind you played thru a luxman amp and tannoys. The 73 is an early 80s model

The first player was a Sylvania, the next, a Magnavox. Not the one everybody was doing the Frankenstein mods on though. In the Mid 90's, I had a Marantz CD-63 SE. Absolutely loved that player at the time. I think it sold for $500.
