Next project
One of them is a Special Edition. The differences: it's stuffed with Cerafines and two NE5532 instead of LM833 opamps, can you believe that!
I hooked it up and it sounds great actually! The music is very calm and relaxed, but not laid back or veiled. The soundstage stays a bit between the speakers though. I like my CD67 better, but this is unexpected! Looks very promising. Maybe i'm infected with the 1541 virus now. Next thing you know i'm into non-OS!!
Regards,
Ray.

Just thought i'd say hi, and happy sunny days.
I'm taking a break from destroying 63's atm until my exams are over. Then im going to do the reg mod that simon just did, although i have x2 5V audicom super-regs for decoder digtial and analogue.
Got 3m of coax cable from maplins too, and will eventually order the rest of the resistors and caps from farnell.
Plus ive managed to procure x4 we are scientists tickets for the nottingham show in november, which should make me some nice profit for cdp mods on ebay

Anyone happen to have a service manual of this model?
I'd be very grateful to have a few scanned pages.

Awww thanks ray.
Sunny days are lovely, and spent the evning out at the local park playing some frisbee and drinking good ol' english cider, then watched the UEFA cup final. Silly middlesborough.
Have fun with your mods lads, il see you back properly in a couple of weeks.
b.t.w i think i have actually typed a post without spelling errors for once. I must keep this amount of alcohol in my system. Tut tut

Sound from both mate, but slightly excessive noise from L-CH. I'll take it apart when it's less sunny and see if there's anything obviously wrong. What things could possible cause a lot of noise?
Si
There could be a dry joint on DAC etc.
Try swapping opamps over also.
Explain the noise for others mate.

Re: Re: Cd65
Hey, great links Allan, thanks. I'm going to look for the CD782 manual too.
Nostalgia....
If I look at how this player is built, for those years it is awesome! I also like the swingarm transport a lot.
One of the players has been used very little. It looks like new, and the laser is propably good for years to come . This is real vintage stuff!
