Philips - CD 100 CD player

Vintage CD Player PHILIPS CD 100
Fully revised, here is, so to speak, the king of first-generation CD players, the Philips CD100, certainly the one that left the strongest impression along with the Sony CDP-101.
Both were the first models distributed by the two manufacturers who originated the CD format.
Rotary optical block and 14-bit converter.
Appeared in March 1983 in Europe, the Philips CD100 presents itself as a small, compact, and heavy brick.
An inclined front strip carries all the controls, and the display by illuminated segments.
The brushed aluminum case finish, with its striking appearance, gives this player a high-end touch of far superior quality to the majority of current production.
The small silver buttons grant access to most essential functions (play / pause / stop and special effects) as well as a programmable track playback option.
The CD100 lacks a remote control and a headphone jack, and the audio output level is fixed.
