Technics SL-PG520A CD Player 4 Dac with Jog Dial 1990s 90s Golden age CD Player Must have addition to your Retro Hifi set up Highly rated and sought after Technics CD player with Editing Suite Functions and the superb Jog Dial Fully tested by our Audio expert for your peace of mind , its special, performs excellently and sounds great Remote control not included but replacements can be readily sourced Launch review from the web below Technics have introduced four new Compact Disc players. All use Technics established MASH single-bit D/A converter system with a 32-times oversampling digital filter and these latest machines claim a still better small signal level performance, resulting in an enhanced definition of ambient information. They have a range of basic controls including random track selection, repeat and auto-cue, they also have a headphones socket with level control.The SLPG520A has in addition to these features a studio-type shuttle search knob (allowing easy on the fly to and from searching at up to 76 times normal playing speed), specially selected circuit components and aluminum front and side panels.Its combination of edit-guide, synchro-edit, peak search, disc link and time fade options remain unchanged. You’ve even got Technics’ Shuttle Search Dial to facilitate precise, high-speed cueing.Philips’ CDM4 CD transport makes a reappearance, deferring any levy that Technics might be obliged to pay by incorporating a token piece of Europe. It’s fortunate for us too, because this single-beam swing-arm laser assembly is rather better than the budget three-beam jobbie Technics would otherwise be using.But inside is where the action isSound qualityAs far as our listeners were concerned every selection of music ended too soon — they felt cheated every time I swopped one disc for another. Yep, they loved it. Their spirited reception was prompted by the open, fresh and melodic character of this player. Less like listening to CD and more like listening to music, they suggested. Dangerous stuff, after all our listeners were not here to enjoy themselves.Either way they did, relishing the vibrant, lively quality of brass from Marty Paich and astounded by the boldness, strength and purpose of the vibes. Almost as if a new performer had taken to the instrument, huge in scale without blowing things out of proportion.They almost failed to recognize our Panufnik track whose sense of drama had always seemed lacking before. Now all the disparate, staccato elements pulled together, weighty and engaging. This expansive sense of acoustic extended to our pop tracks without compromising any sense of subtle detail. Sweeping movements were handled as gracefully as the tiniest inflection, astonishingly spacious, gloriously musical. A cracker.ConclusionThe above says it all. Our listeners were utterly bowled over by the sound of this player which had a sense of expression, of drama and scale that put far costlier products in the shade. It has all the hallmarks of a fine audio product: big, powerful, seductive yet never forceful. All the hallmarks of the ‘high-end’.
