the cheapest CD player from the 80s

The CD player was sold under the Yorx name in 1988-1989 for about $100. Which was the cheapest to my knowledge as I couldn't find any listed for cheaper. Yorx is not known for high quality stuff but that being said this CD player still works perfectly all these years later with no help from me. Also the unit has a very good DAC made by Sony along with most of chips in the machine. The main microprocessor is made by Funai and I also believe this CD player was OEM by them as well as the date code sticker is exactly same one used on other funai made CD players from the 80s. Also the CD player was made in Japan as Yorx stuff came from eather Taiwan or China. I know a lot of people think funai only made junk but back in the 80s that wasn't the case at all.

I got the CD player little wile back because of its neat design and it was only $4 from a Goodwill. I use the CD player hooked up to my 80s Fisher all in one stereo and for what it is sounds good. The CD player is very basic but pretty we'll made in terms of the electronics not so much the case as cut myself on the egdes as the were sharp as a nife. So ware gloves on this one or have cute finger's.
