Non audio items will continue to be available on my old profile "rockeater" with feedback of 440. For sale is Arcam Alpha 5+ CD player. This is a top quality player featuring.

Philips CDM-9 Swing-arm, Friction-less, Magnetic Drive mechanism - metal pro version. Philips 16 bit TDA-1541 DAC integrated circuit. All electrolytic capacitors are quality Rubycon. Trichord Clock 3 high stability upgrade. This unit when arrived in my workshop the CD drawer did not open, which is a common fault with these units.

Before by other workshop but the quality of the replacement gear was so poor, that it was rubbing against the chassis and jamming the drawer. Fitting new gear and belt solved the loading mechanism problem. The unit comes with either an original Arcam System Remote Controller, which only has very basic CD player functions, or aftermarket one programmed with all player's functions (but not both). The video showing the player during service is available on my uTube hear-net-au channel by clicking HERE.
