Original CD 2008--SOLD

Item: Original CD 2008 MK1 [High End CD Player]
For Sale : Sold to a gentleman
Features: Silver Version with spike footer, 14kg Heavy Solid Metal for Noise/Vibration Proof, Dual Transformer sealed ,24bit. HDCD. 96Khz , Philips transport and DAC
Condition: 9/10 [ Metal case Remote Control provided but not working ]

Lightly used as it was my auxiliary player.

Under the shell, it already come with high qualities components and parts built-in, but I further invest on top quality parts to push its performance further, it cost me near 1K .
The major upgrading included Tentlab XLO low jitters clock & many more performance upgrade that has no impact with its reliabilities…I can assure 6 months warranty on this player to ease your mind,further more criticals parts like lens are easily available locally.

In comparison with Sony Top loading CDP & Naim CDM9 based CDP & Philips CM1 based player which 1 had tried, this player is surely a solid performer as the way it looks ,it does not lose nor excels much than those players, I name it second after the Sony due to its super transparency[SACD] but without typical Japanese “ thin “ sounding.
It is also quite an analogue sounding player,you could live with it for an extended hours of listening without discomfort,but vinyl is the best in this region so i am yet to explore further..

Test CDs used: Dangerous[MJ] , George Michael Greatest Hit & Maher Zain "Thank you Allah" Album.

This player sounds even much better on audiophile recorded CDs.

Reason for Sale: To raised fund for another CDP upgrading work.
