Hello, I need some advice regarding an old battleship Sony CD player I recently purchased. At some point in its life, it had a Trichord clock upgrade but this has been removed. I'd like to return it to stock but it's missing the original crystal oscillator. I know the frequency I need (16.9244M), but I don't know if essentially any crystal will do the job? A quick web search throws up a ton of results for oscillators, are they pretty much all the same?
I'll have to replace the components around the original crystal as they've just been snipped and left in place, other option is to try to get another external clock and pick up a DC supply from somewhere in the player.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
