ULTRA RARE Vintage Marantz CD-73 CD Player ~Serviced + LED bulb upgrade ! ~LOOK in New Hyde Park, New York

** DEMO VIDEO AVAILABLE UPON REQUEST **Single family owned vintage Marantz CD-73 Cd player. Unit has been cleaned and fully tested. "DISC" light has been replaced with a warm blue LED as per the original bulb specs. Gears have been cleaned and greased. When the CD 73 hit the market in 1983, it was a little revolution. Definitely the first "good" or better " extraordinary" looking CD-Player. The technical base was similar to the "first" Marantz toploader, but the disc loading mechanism was changed. Since then, everybody remembers the player with the "thick" disc carrier!The interface design of this CD-Player reminds to the conventional analog record player. First of all, there is no time code displayed! (Did you ever ask yourself why all the CD-Players since then have time displays?? ) Unit plays, stops, ff, rwd's, stops and goes to the next song perfectly !Concerning the sound of the CD 73: It is still one of the nicest sounding CD-Players built in the 80ies. It sound very "analogue" because of the very solid disc mechanism. The CDM 1 is known for its ever lasting quality and perfect reading characteristics. If the data is well read, you do not need that much error correction. That makes it sound very natural. It plays CDR without any problems aswell. .All in all, a wonderful player. Design, sound and handling will keep it special for the next generations.The optical condition is very good and clean, only light wear is visible on top if you take a closer look with a few scratches which could be fixed with a fresh coat of paint. I have decided to leave it factory original and I appreciate its vintage and believes it tells a story. Comes with power cord. Unit will be professionally packed, tracked, fully insured and delivered to your address within the lower 48 States. Cash local pickup also more than welcome. Thank you.
