In Reply to: Vintage Magnavox CDB492 CD Player - Impressive! posted by mjcmt on June 30, 2009 at 17:32:23:
I think that's the one that people said to buy and mod, and I did so from Audio Advisor in the mid 80's, but never got around to modding.
Sits and occasionally plays in my family home's system. I put 4 large rubber sorbathane donut shaped feet under it and played it with Uncle Stu's green disc. Very soft and round and nice sound.
The gear is GAS Thoebe >>> Hafler DH 200 >>> Rogers 15 ohm LS3/5a and Bass unit LSB 1, fed by Philips Magnavox CDB 650 great shape, mint Ariston RD 11S/Grace 707 black arm tube, Shure V15VMR, Sony TCK 555 (not ES), Panasonic VCR and a China manufactured and labeled HDCD and DVD/CD player.
The system is very good for classical music and esp the over 500 mint LP collection, which is 90% classical or vocal opera and operetta. Bass and speaker postioning need improvements.
Picture of a typical LP from that collection. New appearing disc.
