Hello.

I have a lovely PD-91 cd player of which I have been told needs a new pick-up that are still available from Pioneer at £99+vat from here:

Pioneer Pick-up (Laser) (http://parts.pioneerelectronics.com/part.asp?productNum=PWY1004)
and here Pioneer Pick-up (Laser) (http://www.dalbani.co.uk/catalogue/product_details.php?id=32303)

They even still do the motors which is good to know in regards to any vintage cd player, here:

I don't have the time to get this going myself as it will need some jiggery pokery. It's a real shame because it's a magnificent machine and very.... very well documented.

The machine itself is in excellent condition but does require a new mains cable.

Any questions please ask. Open to offers and + £15 for delivery. This is not the one currently on ebay

A superb project for someone who knows about these things. Someone not like me.. lol - If it can made to work you will have ONE HELL of a cd player and worth around £400-£500 and some very desirable hifi history to boot!

Pics soon.

Sold as parts/not working

Cheers

Do you realise just how good this machine could be????? :lol:

CD94 price when new and almost certainly better, disregarding all the fashionable copper/copper coloured metal in there :) I loved it when I heard Jimmy H's review one :)

Touché Von Dave :lol: - I'm using another PD-91. I bought this one as a donor but decided things must go. Yes, I agree the sound is magnificent, even in stock mode, which it is.
