Sony ES CD Player Wanted

[istari_knight]

I'm currently on the lookout for a Sony ES CD player... Willing to consider any model but would prefer circa early 90's [CDP-X**, CDP-X*0*, CDP-X***, CDP-X**9.]

Cheers :)

Have one of these myself as a transport, very nice indeed!

I had an XA-20ES a few years ago and wish I had never sold it :(

Have a look on the german or french ebay sites for an XA-50ES. They are real crackers :)

[istari_knight]

Thanks guys, I've had an XA20ES in the past [along with many others!] and I must say while it makes a good transport, as a complete CD player its the least capable ES I've had... That seller wants £65 too much as well IMO :(

I'm not letting you have my 303ES. :D

<good luck with your search though> :)

I wouldn't dream of it Richard, after all... You'll need it to partner your next ES amp ;) :D

Fair point, well made James. :)

Emporium have a 303ES but it's a bit heavy price-wise - may be negotiable?

[istari_knight]

Thanks for the heads up, your not wrong re the pricing... Everything on that site is about 50% higher than I would expect to pay. Maybe I'm a cheapskate ? ... Dont answer that :D

Are these of any interest to you James?....

lol - I think they have some haggle room built into their prices. When they first started up their advertised prices were very reasonable. Worst case they can only say no.

[istari_knight]

I took your advice & emailed them... Not heard anything back yet http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c129/istari_knight9/tumble_zps9be5952d.gif

... Still on the lookout ! :)
