Anyone tried the original Playstation 1 for CD?


I read the story in Six Moons about the original Playstation 1 being an excellent CD player. Has anyone actually tried doing this? Bob

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.
I have a slightly modified PS1 as a CDP. I leave it on all the time and it is a fine player. For me in my set-up the sound of the PS-1 is a lot more of a laid back vs. other players. That isn't a bad thing, just different. I compared the PS-1 to a Cambridge S30 as a transport to a Grant Fidelity DAC-09 with an upgraded tube and I found the S30/DAC-09 combo more in your face. Again not a bad thing just a difference.
