Anyone tried the original Playstation 1 for CD?

It takes having the Playstation 1 to be turned on for about two days. You don't necessarily have to play CDs. The sound just seems to open up after a full day on.

Just realized I left mine on by mistake for a day, and turned it off. Oh Well! Is it ok just to leave it powered up in general then? I am impressed so far, mine is only a few months old, and being used to break in a new system. It will be my only source for digital, just to break in equipment, and background listening. I paid $30, in almost perfect condition. Anyone try one of the aftermarket PC's?

I can't say I've noticed a difference (powered up for weeks now), but I was already very happy with the sound. Now if I could only get them (I have two) to track worth a flip. Won't play some CD's (especially "home-burned") and has the occasional 1 second or longer lapse.

Looks like a great way to try different source. Off I go to kijiji to find an used one to try.

a qualified tech can remove a filtering device that will allow the sony to play cd-rs. pretty simple really but it is electonics after all.
