Some pics of sexy vintage CD players - Page 3

first posting ever to this forum...........have started a collection of pcdp's mostly from ebay before they all disappear from view, well the decent ones anyway.

the problem is knowing when to stop!........this is a contagion. Sites like this should be held to account for encouraging the weak of will and promoting audiophile lifestyles 

these vintage CD players routed through a outboard DAC (Fiio) +Grado SR80 expose limitations of AAC files played through an ipod Touch which are more than adequate for

outdoors.........will post my collection for those interested soon. 

^ Welcome to Head-Fi and sorry about your wallet. I've been down that same route when I first joined. It was my quest for a Sony D-E905 that led me here. Little did I know that the D-E905 would be first of many vintage pcdps that I would acquire. Now that I've stopped buying vintage pcdps, I look back and admire the sound of my purchases which consists of vintage pcpds from Sony, Aiwa, Denon, Philips, and Technics to name a few. Have fun and happy listening.

Very nice collection.

Its amazing how soon these gadgets became "vintage"....sshh...am I getting old or the tech is evolving too fast....?

Sony CDP - That CDP is older than me and I'm 23.

Sennheiser HD650 - Gift from my gramps who is an audiophile :D

Fiio E6 - Gets the job done

Yup, those D-5 (D-5A or D-50) are built like a tank. The first Sony Discman model that started it all back in 1985, I have 3 of them all still work flawlessly.
