My CD player is up for sale. Bought from new in 2007 and lightly used, it’s in perfect condition and is seldom moved from its shelf in a child free, smoke free environment. It was returned to Nagra in 2010 and given a new drawer mechanism and updates and as expected from Nagra, has been faultless.
I see one of same age on a dealers website as sold at £5500. I’m asking £4500 complete with box and all paperwork.

Beautifully engineered bit of kit, I could never work out how to use it, didn't own one but know someone who did.

Jim " JVS " on the HFWW had one , the cd draw sounded grindy :eek:, but the player its self souned very detailed

I spoke to Nagra once concerning the reliability of their machines, stating I would use one continuously for at least five hours a day. Their answer was that they couldn't conceive of anyone wanting to use a CDP continuously for such a long time. I wasn't impressed with their answer, or in their confidence with their design, so didn't go any further with buying one.

That's a ridiculous answer from Nagra. I'm sure many of us have had listening sessions that run to or exceed five hours. I know I have.

Exactly my thoughts at the time.

That's the one Al, detailed is one way to describe it I suppose

How would you describe the sound?

Messaged you Barry

Now don’t go dissing my ex! In fairness some early machines had drawer problems which Nagra fixed. Mine was as smooth as a baby’s bum. I had a few difficulties finding a suitable replacement and went through Chord, DCS and Audionote before settling on ARC.
