For sale is my beloved Audio Note CD 3.1x tube cdp (version I, not II) in mint condition. Rated 8/10, only due to age. Functionally it is 10/10, cosmetically it is 9/10. If you see the photos, you can see that it is clean inside and out. Comes with remote, original box and manual.I am the only owner and bought it as a store demo over a decade back. The CD3.1x uses the revolutionary and currently exclusive Audio Note™ digital technology dubbed the 1xoversampling™ direct from disc™ circuit topology using the legendary AD1865 chip. Organic sounding, classic AN sound...transparent yet musical. Service history: Transformer was replaced under warranty. After warranty expired, the output capacitors were replaced very recently (one capacitor was leaking and hence slight static like noise in sound) by local Denver audio repair shop with OEM Audio Note copper foil-mylar in oil film capacitors part # CAP-3310 (same part that originally came with the player, but AN has redesigned the caps for better since the player was built) and had the player checked out. I also applied Noico constrained layer damping sheets on the chassis at specific locations to deaden it (see photos). The 6111WA tube has plenty of life left in it. Honestly it sounds a bit better than when I bought it. I am moving on to a different direction with digital and hence selling it. Asking for $900 + shipping. If you care about redbook CD playback, you will not find a better musical player at this price point. Lowballers will be ignored. Check feedback under dandaroy for me on Audiogon.
