TEAC CD Player for 3600/-

[sudhirbhosale]

At Lamington road, I came across TEAC CD player brand new available @ 3600 with bill. Model 1160. Surprise to see the price as other player cost more than twice.


I am not expert hence want to ask in forum is that good quality player? If I buy (because its in budget) what I will miss over other players like Yamaha, Marantz?

Any Pros and cons of this model?

Thanks in advance

I have Teac CD 1260, with Blue Back Lit LCD Display

I think it is same as 1160 but 1260 plays MP3 from Disk

It has output opamp LM4558, luckily in 8 PIN DIP

I removed LM4558, put an 8 pin IC base and plugged

Dual IC on PCB with socket LME49710 HA

now it is one of the very best sounding players

I own oppo BDP 93, NAD C320, Marantz etz this beats them all

cost of 2 LME49710 HA sourced from Indonesia was appx 2K

from ebay seller sorchaudio

LME series chips are very sweet sounding. Though, if not on a good layout, the highs could be fatiguing.

I would really really like to buy the Teac or any similarly priced, equally good or better dedicated CD player.

Coulkd some point me towards a source for one in Mumbai or online
