FS: Kenwood DPC-61 PCDP

[fewtch]

For Sale -- Kenwood DPC-61 portable CD player. Includes *all* accessories including original box, manual, wireless remote control, NiCAD battery charger, AC adapter and car cassette adapter.

The player is in excellent condition, aside from some light scuffs on the lid. Solid metal base, metal reinforced lid/hinge, metal drive bearing and metal reinforced jacks (including line out... no digital out though). Takes four "AA" batteries. Has the classic "Music Calendar" function and a big/generous digital readout that can be seen halfway across the room. *Extremely* reliable unit ca. 1989/1990, and although it lacks skip protection it does not skip easily at all and it plays discs that all my other PCDPs have had trouble with.

This unit was originally being shown off at head-fi meets due to its sound quality and sheer handsomeness!







Asking $65 + $10 shipping UPS ground with tracking number -- Continental U.S. and Canada only please (Canada add $5 extra for shipping). Note that I purchased this originally from Voodoochile (its first owner) for less, but I feel that it's worth more than Voodoochile's price given that all accessories are included and the reliability and sheer gorgeousness of this unit -- not to mention its rarity (if you disagree, I'd be happy to discuss a price we could both live with -- no lowballing though please). I prefer Paypal (non credit-card only please!) or I can accept a money order. PM/Email me if you're interested... thanks!~

How's the laser faring?

The laser in the player? It looks to be in excellent condition... the unit was taken care of very well, and the actual laser mechanism is faster to read and less prone to random skipping than most PCDPs I've run into (new or old).

P.S. the unit also reads CD-R's just fine (never tried a CD-RW).

TRADE PENDING -- if it doesn't go through I will reopen the player to offers, but consider it closed for now.
