Philips CD880 CD player with upgraded output section, power supply and super clock.

This player has had the following mods/upgrades: The I/V output stage completely replaced with a stage designed by Pedja Rogic around the AD844 high speed opamp with dedicated power supply and discrete voltage regulators (by Burson Audio). Sprague PIO (Paper in Oil) output capacitors bypassed with Vitamin-Q caps. Standard crystal oscillator replaced with separate high quality super clock board with dedicated power supply.

The headphone and SPDIF output have been removed as part of the modifications.

This player has the CDM1/2 transport and TDA1541A S1 DAC chip so it is a very good sounding player even before the upgrades. The CD880 was Philips flagship player of its era, they still sell for US$350 (and more) on Ebay and the S1 DAC chip sells for US$175 alone.

Haven't used this player for a year or so but just gave it a thorough test and seems to be working perfectly.

Excelent cosmetic condition. No remote but replacement ones available on Ebay.

Pick up much preferred as the player weighs 10kg! However will post at buyers risk/cost.
