[FS] Revox B126 CD player

[lawrence001]

Very well regarded CD player with Philips TDA1541A dac chip and swing arm mech. Tray mechanism is smooth and it plays faultlessly.

It weighs a lot (8.5kg from looking online) and sounds very nice indeed - not digital, unlike the cheaper CDPs with that chip that many buy in the hope they will sound good (which they don't from personal experience!).

It has a few small marks including the aluminium fascia but nothing major. There's no remote as it was sold separately to control the whole Revox system. It has a captive mains lead which could be upgraded.

Lampizator prefers it to the more expensive model:

Looking on HiFi Shark, £495 collection from N London seems very fair. I wouldn't trust this to a courier so personal collection only please.

I took some internal shots to show how sturdy the transport is, see the massive metal frame holding it in place and the big motor. Also note the capacitors all look good, no leaks or bulging.

Also a photo of it at night, the green light is very nice

Lastly, a nice feature I've not seen anywhere else is the black dot that shows how far through each track it is, rather like the bar on a streaming app.

Going to list on eBay later as I have the offer.

Bump for one of the best TDA1541A CD players.
