Ahoy,
i have a 1985 Denon DCD-1100 CD player that i bought last year for $70 + $30 shipping on eBay. it has worked as it should until several months ago when it developed a crackling distortion problem while playing a CD. a hobby repairman says it's likely a failed diode, since cleaning the eyeball had no effect, nor did adjusting treble on the receiver. so, it plays CDs and CD-Rs as it should, but with the distortion.
i have no idea how much it'd be worth to someone for parts or their own repair, but i need to sell it soon for whatever it's worth to you. i'll provide pictures of it and even a sound recording of it playing if anyone posts with interest or PMs with an offer.
