Description from the seller
Marantz CD-63 MKII KI Signature - (Ken Ishiwata Edition) - Mint Condition - With Remote
Introduction:
Up for auction is a legendary piece of Hi-Fi history: the Marantz CD-63 MKII KI Signature. This is not the standard CD-63, but the highly sought-after version personally refined by the late sound maestro Ken Ishiwata. It remains one of the most musical and "analog-sounding" CD players ever produced.
Condition & Provenance:
This unit is in impeccable (mint) condition, both aesthetically and technically. It has been meticulously cared for in a smoke-free, pet-free environment. As seen in the photos, the interior is pristine, showcasing the hallmark of the KI Signature series: the full copper-plated chassis and the high-grade toroidal transformer.
Technical Highlights:
Copper-Plated Chassis: Designed to eliminate EMI and RFI interference for a cleaner signal.
Toroidal Transformer: Provides high-current, low-noise power for superior dynamics.
HDAM Modules: Marantz's proprietary Hyper Dynamic Amplifier Modules for a warm, detailed soundstage.
Unmodified: The unit is 100% original, maintaining its factory-spec components (high-quality Silmic/Cerafine capacitors), which is a rarity for collectors today.
Performance:
The player is in perfect working order. It reads discs (including high-quality CD-Rs) instantly and tracks flawlessly. The display is bright and clear, with no fading.
Included in the Sale:
Marantz CD-63 MKII KI Signature Player.
Original Marantz Remote Control (fully functional).
Power cable.
Shipping:
The player will be packed with professional care using "double-box" technique and high-density foam to ensure it arrives safely anywhere in Europe. Shipped via insured courier with tracking.
