Nice players you have there
Indeed, but I would prefer the white one
Not sure I would have the bottle to modify such classic gear!
I agree 100%.
As radio collector/restaurator, I know, how it looks, when some people tweaked radios in the 60ies and 70ies.
As example, look at this eggshelf at this Paillard Mod 431.
And the worst thing: this is a radio from my father and it was MYSELF, as young boy, glueing the shelf on the speaker, to improve high frequency reproduction
But: I dont remove it, as it is part of the history of this radio, now.
Regarding the CD207, I think I will carefully replace the old electrolytic caps by new ones, to avoid some damages.
And maybe, some small and reversible modifications.
