Mine was a Yamaha w. oversampling 2 times. One of the first. I sold it & bought a Maganavox 630 I think. Then I bought the big heavy Marantz. That was a very musical player. All bought in the 1980s. Fond memories. Sold my Yamaha to finance the purchase of a Colnago bicycle. Sold the Magnavox because I didn't like it. Sold the Marantz to go travel. Less choice back then. Wadia, Theta & Krell were great then.
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?
