Made the rounds at the usual thrift shops, this low-mid-fi cdp caught my eye with a price tag of $9. Turned out the pickup lens had popped off (common with Pioneers). Glued it back on, made a few adjustments, and had her singing in under an hour.
This unit uses a six disc magazine style cartridge to load CDs. You have to put them (the CDs) in upside down which is a little bit different. It uses a "Legato Link" DAC chip which sounds pretty good to my ears. The headphone out on the front is half decent, capable of driving my 600ohm 240DFs at a decent volume without noticeable distortion.
Overall, a very nice find for the $. I just love finding killer deals!
