whats your thoughts on Pioneer DV09


I know this may sound strange but I find myself perfering the sound of older cd players over newer players. Many say the newer technology cd players trump older cd players. I have a player that has the 24/196 up sampling board sounds great but I still find myself perfering the sound of my older mcintosh mcd7000 only thing is the laser is no longer available so I'm looking for another old cd player as a back up I came across a Pioneer DV09 I've always like these units looking for what others think of these.

I had a Pioneer DV-09, and still regret selling it. It sounded like a $2200 CD/DVD should sound, very pleaseant sound. I'll spare you the review, but I wouldn't hesitate to buy another one at the right price (under $300). I now have a McIntosh MVP 871 and can't say that I prefer the sound by any magnitude over the Pioneer.
I have a DV-09, nice but I like my Sony 707ESD better circa 1987. Same craftsmanship including wood sides. Not really into the upsampling thing these days. Laser assy. still available for the Pioneer but not the sony. I need to get the Pioneer modded to read cdr's too.
Artez, great buy. I bought mine several years ago for $200. I used it for a couple of years and sold it for $100. That's a great price for a really great piece of equipment. Congratulations, enjoy it!
