Sony Playstation 1 for a CD player ???

Thanks Tholt. Email me for more info on mods.

You're welcome. Sounds like you're more then capable with the experience and results you've reported. Plus, my impression is that you're just a nice guy. next time i get the ps1 in the system, I'll hit you up.

Yep, I've got two SCPH-1001's as CD players. I think I paid $15-20 for each. I have one running with a vintage Fisher X-100 integrated tube amp and Klipsch Forte II's. Wow, what a sweet sounding combination! I'm using Audioquest Copperhead interconnects to the Sony.

Nice analog sounding unit for the digital shy.
The PS1 is the CD player that is worth the money x100.

Now also playing with the Walmart Yardmaster speaker wires.
Anyone have anything to share about time and what you will hear during break-in?
Also what about the potential that they are directional as indicated concerning the TAS Home Depot cables?

Just wanted to second the suggestion for rhing. I recently bought a modded PS1 from him and he was extremely helpful and took great pains to ensure that I was getting the best quality for my money. This entailed redoing the mods on a new second player before he sent it to me as the first one he worked on had laser issues. I have put in the Power Punch C7 cord and an Isoclean fuse as per his recommendations and the player sounds phenomenal and its not even fully burned in yet.
