JohnJ Posted June 10, 2023 Author Posted June 10, 2023 Yea, like the chunky looks and the aluminum's? finish! Having a separate PSU is always better in audio components too! 2 Quote

JohnJ Posted June 10, 2023 Author Posted June 10, 2023 Ok, Ok The toroidal psu in my Cambridge is shielded very well and that integrated has lots of power to spare for surprise crescendos! 2 Quote

The Philips CD-960 is largely identical in construction to the Marantz CD-94, CD-95, CD-99, CD-12, the Philips LHH-1000, the Micro Seiki CD-M2, CD-M100, CD-M2000X, and the Wadia WT-3200, and ran off the assembly lines of the Marantz manufacturing facilities in Japan along with them. The CD-960 is the most expensive CD player ever sold by Philips. The massive chassis is made of die-cast zinc, the power supply is more likely to be found in a mid-range integrated amplifier today, and two icons tower above it all - the indestructible Philips CDM1 turntable, also made of die-cast zinc and with glass lenses by Rodenstock, and probably the most musical digital/analogue converter ever, the Philips TDA1541. and a beauty as well I hope you only stored it so well that you can find it again, so that you don't have the same problem as I had with the Revox board. 2 1 Quote

Yes it’s easily accessible anytime I need to find it I will be selling a lot of my access components progressively over the next year or two Then decide if I should downsize the main system, as we are planning to move to a lifestyle unit complex Need to check if it will fit first then decide? 2 Quote

AndreG. Posted June 18, 2023 Posted June 18, 2023 Yes, but lately I´ve seen a lot of YT-links on Discogs that don´t work... A bummer when you just want to see if you like a tune or not. Then it´s the original YT. 1 Quote
