here are, in my years of searching, all of the variants i know of, of PIONEER's 1987/1989 CLD-3030 family of LDP designs,
covering JPN, U.S. and EURO markets. some of these seem to be especially rare birds indeed, irrespective of the market one searches for them in;

U.S. CLD-3030 is a very modestly stripped-down variation of it's JPN CLD-99S equivalent. primary differences
are a lower grade sheet-metal bottom panel for the 3030, versus heavier-gauge Copper-plated panel for 99S,
dk./lt. orange display panel shading for 3030, versus blue/red for 99S,
and the 99S' lack of tray provision for 8cm. CD-SINGLE. that aside, JPN CLD-99S is the superior
of the two, even if only by very slim cosmetic margin...

- personally, i also prefer the "LASERVISION/CD/CDV PLAYER" legend over the U.S. model's "CD/CDV/LD PLAYER" YMMV and all that, of course...

all told, the 3030 is among the very best 80's LDPs ever marketed in the U.S. -and one of the most cosmetically attractive models ever designed, YMMV-
probably not nearly good enough for those whom desire only the state of the art in LD playback,
but eminently watchable all the same, -usually at least as much as a good S-VHS recording-
and probably as good as most would ever need.

at any rate, here are some screencaps that might help determine if this model would prove personally acceptable;


TOP GUN (1986) (PIONEER LDC SPECIAL EDITION, 1995)

I also find my CLD-3030 will play through some disc defects better then my other players. It's a very quiet player with less vibration, maybe being the type of disc clamp is has.

yep, and my own is actually even quieter yet, thanks to the added isolation. a recommended, -and damn good looking, YMMV- tweak for any 3030-series owner;
