ABOUT THIS ITEM

The Yamaha CDX-2000 is a high-end Natural Sound CD player made in Japan by Yamaha, released in 1987 as a flagship model built with a thorough focus on sound quality. It features an 8-times oversampling 8fs × 18-bit digital filter and a twin 18-bit DAC system with independent left and right converters (PCM56P-K), performing D/A conversion at four times the resolution of conventional units for faithful reproduction even at minute signal levels, with both filtered and direct (no low-pass filter) audio outputs. It also includes a high-quality Hi-Bit digital volume control, allowing the player to be connected directly to a power amplifier without a preamplifier. The optical pickup is driven by a unique high-speed linear-motor access system for quick track selection, mounted on a heavyweight BMC base to suppress resonance, with a two-way computer servo for improved tracing. A separate-board construction isolates the digital, servo, audio, and power sections, with a copper-plated VM stabilizer covering the audio circuitry, a two-stage V/I and I/V output stage, and a large power supply using two independent shielded transformers with shunt regulation. It offers gold-plated terminals plus coaxial and optical digital outputs. Weighing a substantial 16 kg, the CDX-2000 remains a superbly engineered and sought-after vintage CD player.

・Power Supply Voltage: AC 120V, 60 Hz
