Wegens overcompleet een mooie onkyo cd speler die in hele goede staat verkeerd. Nu voor een klein prijsje naar een andere liefhebber. Ik kan hem eventueel even aansluiten om de speler te testen.
This looks like a strong deal at €35. Recent comparable listings cluster around roughly €69 and higher, while serviced or excellent examples command considerably more, so €35 sits comfortably below the usual asking level. It is especially attractive if the seller can demonstrate that it reads discs reliably.
The DX-700 is a solid early-1990s single-disc player with the respected MN6472 1-bit, 8-times-oversampling DAC, good published noise and distortion figures, and a conventional KSS-210A mechanism. It should make a capable, musical partner for a vintage system, and the R1 remote or digital connection to compatible Onkyo equipment would add useful value. At this price, the sensible check is simply playback from cold, track access, drawer operation, and stable reading of several discs; minor cosmetic wear would not change the bargain verdict.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Onkyo traces its roots to postwar Japan, founded in 1946 in Osaka by Takeshi Goda, an engineer at Matsushita Electric who envisioned high-quality Japanese loudspeakers. Initially established as Osaka Denki Onkyo K.K., the company began production in 1948 with the acclaimed ED-100 speaker featuring a 25 cm driver, quickly building a reputation through LP concerts and innovative designs that resonated with audiophiles.
The brand excels in premium home audio, renowned for AV receivers, hi-fi amplifiers, and surround sound speakers that deliver exceptional clarity and power. Its portfolio spans turntables, DACs, headphones, and cables, bolstered by acquisitions like Pioneer's home electronics division in 2015, enabling cutting-edge integrations such as internet radio and high-resolution streaming.
Onkyo holds a solid mid-tier position in the hi-fi market, prized by discerning buyers for reliable performance and value rather than ultra-high-end exotica. Despite bankruptcy challenges in the late 2010s, its revival under new ownership preserves a legacy of technological innovation and pure sound enjoyment, appealing to both vintage enthusiasts and modern home cinema setups.
