Post subject: | LD Player Purchase |
I recently just purchased a pretty nice looking CLD-59 Player. I'm wondering how good this is (i assume decent enough since it's an Elite model). Such as how does it compare to a CLD-D-704? |

Sorry to say there is a lot of great info when doing a google search on these models. Any working player at this point is the best player you can own. |

From what I understand that model is a CLD-D604/5/6 under the hood, which makes it an average LD player. Biggest drawback that I've heard is that the DNR can't be turned off on that model. |

I think ebay is a good way to find a good LD player. After, quality will depend on your wallet... For exemple : https://www.ebay.fr/itm/Pioneer-DVL-909-LaserDisc-LD-DVD-Player-mit-FB-BDA-2-Jahre-Garantie/372355368849?_trkparms=aid%3D222007%26algo%3DSIM.MBE%26ao%3D2%26asc%3D20170831090034%26meid%3D0c1dd7b1ad744b17bd063e035c42b11b%26pid%3D100005%26rk%3D1%26rkt%3D12%26sd%3D372355368353%26itm%3D372355368849&_trksid=p2047675.c100005.m1851 This is a good player PAL / NTSC, 220V and the buyer give a warranty for 2 years ! This is quite rare to find a plyer perfectly working during 2 years ! Then is is not a bad idea. On ebay you can find a lot of player depending on your needs and your wallet size ^^ ! |

If you want a top class player you can also import player by ebay : https://www.ebay.fr/itm/Pioneer-CLD-959 ... Sww9xZKkAk for exemple. A very good NTSC player. Be careful, you will need a Voltage transformer 100V > 220 for this one. |

thanks but 600 euros are crazy prices for me, i use small tv's for LD playback |

Post subject: | Re: LD Player Purchase |
Right now 60 usd is too much for me to spend on a player, let alone 600. thankfully I have enough for now.... Maybe look for the lower end units similar to the CLD-104, such as the 315 maybe? or is that a PAL player. Sorry I am not so familiar with the EU models. |

That’s a really really low end model. I wouldn’t really want one at any price. It’s loud and rattles and makes a lot of video noise. It took until the mid 90s until Pioneer could make a $299.99 player. Before that only the S201 was even close to as cheap and that wasn’t so great either. I have to say, I’ve never tried to purchase an LD player in France in 2018 on a budget. It can’t be easy. I also have to say I don’t really know why anyone would...it’s not like France is filled with great LDs to watch. |

Post subject: | Re: LD Player Purchase |
thanks for that rein-o Signofzeta...I have this Cld-j990g (maybe from 1996, im sure is a clone of the Cld-v2800); it works perfect except some failed attemps with the double side mechanism I have only watched in person another model owned by a friend an euro expensive DVL-919 and i have to say it showed imho a subtle greenish cast to the imege, i prefer my 40 euro Cld-j990g anyday UPDATE: right now i have bought finally a CLD-R6 through a proxy shop ; 114 euro without shipping and import taxes hope not reach the 200 euros maybe yes |

What is it? Some sort of built-in LD+G? |

It’s a karaoke model. EDIT: or rather I assumed it was but I don’t see any mic inputs. |

Post subject: | Re: LD Player Purchase |
yes, it is the CD + LD player module of a japanese music tower equipment....i told you it is a really weird one |

Post subject: | Re: LD Player Purchase |
If it is for a tower, it makes sense to have the mic inputs in another device, like the amp. Also it appears to have TOSlink, you don't see those in karaoke models. |

Really I've only had one or two Karaoke models, I can't remember if they did or didn't have that as I sold them back in the day. But I didn't know that they aren't on Karaoke models. |

Post subject: | Re: LD Player Purchase |
Well I'm not an expert, maybe Japanese models do have TOSlink because LD+G uses the optical signal for the G part. But then, if this has built-in LD+G already, why would it need one? |
