Want to upgrade my CD player so am a bit sad to sell my Sony which has served me well the past few years. Superb CD player which was well reviewed by WHF & HFC (5 stars & recommended respectively), originally £300. Unique Fixed Pick-up transport mechanism which Sony first introduced into this CD player as featured in some ES models. Sell for £90, I am certain it will trounce anything this side of today's £150 competition.
