FS: Vintage Sony D-5 CDP (I have two, so selling one)
Sony D-5 vintage portable CD Player in excellent shape, with spliced cable 9v wall wart (that came with it) $150 shipped to CONUS.
This is a perfect bedside CD player, and can drive even demanding headphones well, and line out is quite good if you want to feed a desktop or portable amp with it. I have two of these, so this extra one must go.
These are now highly sought after for their excellent sound quality in a small package. These sold for almost $500 new over 20 years ago, and the sound is fantastic. They don't make them like they used to. I bought one back in Med School to use in the study carrels, so I wouldn't have to lug my $800 Technics CD players with me, and it got me through some rough times. You can even make your own 9v c-cell or d-cell pack to use with it, like I did way back then.
Not sure if I want anything in trade, but I'll listen to what you have to offer.

Bump - I built my basement rig around my other D-5 and DV336i, in addtion to laptop with Pico, but I use the D-5 more! You can buy my spare/backup D-5, and it is small enough to fit almost anywhere!
The one in the front is for sale, and I can swap the universal wallwart in the photo for a sony 9v wallwart. The D5 is next to a stack of THREE CD's

Well, because I don't have an external battery pack, this is pretty much "transportable". But, it is perfect for a bedside or coffee table CD player that has enough power to drive HD600 without a dedicated headphone amp.
