Sony CA9ES CD Player

Got a chance to get one of these dirt cheap. Anyone know what the MSRP was on it? Also of what audiophile quality is it using the A,B,C,D class scale.

thanks!

I guess it is the old saying " Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder " Consider 90% of the public can't even afford a $700 cd player. I guess at $50 though it is a steal! Thanks!
