Thanks. There seem to be two 303s I can find. The X303 ES with a central tray and a 303 ES with a left-sided tray. Which one is yours?Will do. I'll need to dig it out and take some pictures for you. In the meantime, please Google the model and see if it's something you're interested in. My example is serviced and ready to go. Cosmetic condition is at least 8/10, probably 9/10.
CDP-303es (with no X). The side tray one.Thanks. There seem to be two 303s I can find. The X303 ES with a central tray and a 303 ES with a left-sided tray. Which one is yours?
Yes, that's what I've always understood it to be too.My understanding from a sony engineer that worked on these machines is that ES is Elevated Standard.
So does the add on designation QS figure in all this? Or is that just marketing hype?
I had a QS amplifier. I believe QS stands for Quality Standard. So sits below ES and above their standard range.
This thread needs more ES pics. I really love the aesthetic.
Here's my office system:
The Audiolab acts as a USB interface from my computer, and I bought the TagMclaren DAC because it's cool, no other reason really.
And here's my cinema/listening room CD player:
All in near-mint condition
I had the 339ES CD Player, possibly the model up from your cinema room one, I can never tell with Sony numbering. Had it in my main rig about 30 years ago along with a few other Sony bits. The only Sony thing left from back then is a MDP-650D Laserdisc Player with AC3 and S-Vid comb filter mods.This thread needs more ES pics. I really love the aesthetic.

Nice Tag DAC.
