Vlog series: The CD revolution: Part 1-3

Part 1:

Part 2 seems to the most interesting.
The CD revolution: Part 2: do all CD players sound the same?

In this video (Pt.2 of 3), I explore two main questions: Can a 30 year old vintage CD player sound as good as a top of the range modern one? And, if we use our CD players as 'transports' (by connecting them to a DAC via their coax digital outputs), will they sound the same as each other, and as good as a modern high-quality transport?

CD Players featured: Vintage - QUAD 67 (from 1993), Philips CD 880 (from 1989), Sony CD 'Walkman' (From 1999)
Modern: Cyrus CDi-XR with PSU XR, Rega Saturn MK3, Pro-ject cd-box-RS2-t with Pre Box RS2 Digital DAC, Philips TAEP 200 (DVD/CD player).
