Anyone who now the name of that Sony model

Sony had a cd-player there you put the cd on a rotating disk who then went into the player. The laser read from above the cd.

AFAIK every model of Sony pickup assembly reads disk from the bottom.

Most probably you mean Pioneer's Stable Platter technique like used in the PD-S507, PD-S904 etc. The more expensive ones like the 901/904 are better by design. However they are less good than Teac VRDS machines, also when used as a transport. The DAC's used in them are nothing special.

Sony has made some cdplayers that used a puck like the CDP-X3000ES and CDP-X5000ES. These were Fixed Pickup machines that had the lasers at the conventional spot ( but fixed with the spindle moving ). Some less expensive versions did not use the puck but had more or less the same mechanics, like the CDP-XB920/930. I had a CDP-X3000ES which is a wonderful machine but unfortunately it is a bit family-unfriendly ( the puck and the plexiglass tray ). The Sonys are better than Stable Platter machines but harder to find and more expensive.

Other than the ones mentioned I do not know of Sony types with a system like you mean.
