Former Sony High-End, Champagne front players.

...ah, back in the day, or something else trite, I had three of the Sony ES Champagne colored CD players.  I believe they were the CDP-X777Es, and the same letters with 707 and 779 in place of the numbers.  I am likely just reliving an audio memory or senility has started.  If any of you have owned any of these models anything you can share of your thoughts and experience would be welcome.  I think I will take a little time off now and fire up the Studebaker Avanti.

I know what it was. You could buy @Corian caddies and put them in the 777 and 9000. The AM caddies were made somewhere in Japan also. Spendy little guy, 1000.00 or so... 15 years ago.

777es 9000es, all the ESs I used, were just wonderful. A true sonic nugget, few know about.. I bet the quality stacks up against, 3-4000.00 silver disk spinners... The only one I didn't use was the multidisk ES. 
I use the 777 and 5500 (?) now.. Big bang for the buck..

Second they match very well with most of my gear...Not supper picky about ICs either..Silver clad wire with certain covers can be BRIGHT. though. They like pure copper or silver.

The PC not to big, it just sucks the life out of the SQ...Good PC if they have IECs, if not, think about replacing, the old or adding a new IEC.

Regards, yup great stuff...
