Description from the seller
The Pioneer PD-S503 is a classic hi-fi CD player that was produced between 1994 and 1995. The player is best known in the audio world for its unique Stable Platter Mechanism. Instead of a traditional CD tray where the CD is loose, this system has a kind of miniature turntable. You place the CD upside down in this (with the printed side down), after which the laser reads the CD from above. This design significantly minimizes vibration and resonance.
Key specifications:
Digital analog converter (DAC): Pioneer PD2029A (1-bit DLC / Pulseflow D/A converter with Legato Link conversion)
Running gear/CD mechanism: Pioneer PEA1179
Frequency range: 2 Hz to 20 kHz
Dynamic range: 96 dB

Total harmonic distortion (THD): 0.003%
Line output: 2V (RCA/Tulip)
Dimensions: 420 x 286 x 116 mm
Weight: 3.8 kg
Legato Link Conversion: A Pioneer-developed technology that attempts to artificially reconstruct audio frequencies above 20 kHz (which are normally filtered out in CDs) for a smoother and more natural analog sound.
Chassis Design: Equipped with a honeycomb chassis and large insulation feet to counter mechanical vibrations from the outside.
Features: Equipped with a switchable display (to reduce any interference with the audio signal), headphone output with volume control, "Hi-Lite Scan" and number access via the remote control.
