FS: Ariston CD1 cd player, CDM4/19 + TDA1541A(si)+OPA627BP

mudihan · 30th June 2006, 01:50 AM

British Ariston CD1 CD player. Considered one of the best players in the world in the early 90s. It has CDM4/19, TDA1541A(si), and specially desinged power supply. Op-amps have been upgraded to OPA627BP (4 of them). I have a heavily modified Art Dio (upgraded diodes and power caps, Linear op-amp, upgraded power supply, Dale resistors, disabled ADC section, directly-soldered cables , and more). Using CD1 both as a player and a transport at same time, I find the sound coming out of CD1 to be of much high quality, especially regarding imaging and depth. Subjectively, I would say that CD1 is a very musical player.

My player is in excellent working condition and reads my CDRs without any problems. CDM4/19 has recently been checked by a technician and is in good condition. I would give my player a cosmetic rating of 90%. No remote is included.

A recent CD1 without remote and any Op-amp upgrade was sold in Taiwan for 13500 Yuan (=$400) + shipping. My asking price is $210 with free shipping to the lower 48 states. I will also ship my player to Taiwan and Mainland China for an addition fee of $40. You can also email me your offer if you are seriously interested.

Please email me at mhan@oberlin.edu for pics and more info. I don't have any feedbacks, since this is the first time I sell my gear here. I live near Cleveland and I welcome you to audition this player.

Note: It is suggested on the player that the transport should be removed during shipment. I will do it for you at your request.

Price Drop: $200 Shipped. But I will no longer give the free gifts -- I decided to sell the OPA627BP separately. Sorry.
