this is the Laserdisc player that my good friend VINYLDAVID grew up with. due to an amusing set of circumstances parelelling my own, his parent's copy of the player was destroyed. thus, he is on the beat for one of his very own...

Nah.

I think that we've been through this before. Not that there is anything wrong with your player, in fact, it looks really well made and cool, but I want a CLD-M90.

My father had one way back when and it only died when it fell down a set of stairs when I was 11/12. best CDP I've ever heard, too.

Mainly I am gettin it for the sentimental value.


DAMN, THAT'S FUNNY!!!!:-oo the first FUNCTIONAL LD player i ever got was a CLD-1080 that my grandma got me for $50.00 when i was staying up there for a month. anyway, the morning she took me back home i was taking stuff out to the car including the truckload of gear i had found at thrifts that month. her house has a landing immediately inside the front door with two sets of stairs; one down to the finished basement, one up to the house proper. those damned stairs are SHALLOW. so shallow in fact that, as i was excitedly lugging both the LDP and the MITSUBISHI HS-413UR VCR that i have in my system to this day out to the car. i lost balance at the top steps and down went both decks. the 1080 slammed right into the base of the brass handrailing separating the upward staircase from the basement one. the VCR landed on top of it and actually survived without a scratch. the 1080, however was totaled, faceplate smashed in, and the transport mecha thrown clean out of alignment. dejected, but thankful that the VCR survived, i got the LDP's carcass back home, where i had another 1080 that i got in non-functional condition with the remote and manual. i tried to repair the deck with parts from that DOA example, and successfully swapped parts and reassembled it, but, alas, no go. at any rate, i traded some crap off for a 1987 LD-838D a few months later, and that was my only LDP until i got my baby there back in christmas of 07. anyway, i just thought the parity of our laserdisc experiences amusing, dave. i too am a highly sentimental person...
