Talk:Sony SCPH1002

=Wrong

We tried it at home. With the result that it sounded a bit better than our HamanKardon. The level was about half. So 3dB less. Others make exactly opposite experiences. It worked for us. As for the quality of CD players. My Sony CD player is extremely bad. At higher levels, i.e. in loud places, it clangs immensely. I don't know why. Possibly an impedance problem. Or it just sucks. My sister is using it on a 100€ system now. --Black Cat II 17:55, 24 Sep 2010 (UTC)

I seriously wonder who came up with the strange idea of starting the "the PS1 as a high-end CD player" rumor many years ago. Belongs in the realm of voodoo, in my opinion, since both expensive and cheap CD players (regardless of the value of the component assembly) cannot be told apart in a blind test.

The value of CD players only becomes noticeable with better equipment. --Black Cat II 17:55, 24 Sep 2010 (UTC)

Reason for requesting deletion

The device in question was not developed as a HiFi device, but is a (now obsolete) game console, which was accidentally attributed a quite decent sound in tests of relevant trade magazines. Since the way to a usable HiFi CD player is very long and cost intensive, this belongs rather in a DIY forum, or possibly in a separate section that deals with such cases, then, however, well-founded construction proposals and sources of supply should be named, which make such a project feasible. However, these should look like they are part of the HiFiWiki and not be supported by countless links that are no longer findable after a short time. Whether this is then legally tenable remains to be checked! The article has been revised. Superfluous things have been removed, important things have been added and generally written in a neutral tone.
