Thank you for the link Gerard!

It seems like they are about to find out just about the same thing, as in the other threads/sites I've read on the subject.

Conclusion: Go for the oldest models!

hi pangea,
i was one of the lucky ones to have the 1001 that has been sitting unused now for 2 years or so ,i hooked it up played a little and figured it out ,my opinion is ,ITS GREAT !!!!!! sounds better than the slp1200 (technics)pro version or any other i have had ,i did no mods as of yet but i will thats for sure ,i have the shielding plate i removed from a JBL dvd600 just so it has a little jbl parts in it so i must say thank you so much for telling us about this great item , so i will give it the old double , triple , quadruple thumbs up ,because i did not have to pay a dime ,i had the better model ,and when i did buy it originally it was purchased from a pawn shop (40.00) and used it for at least three years or more and i never would have used it again if it were not for this info .

thank you once again pangea my best regards michael

Hi dblaxter!
You're very welcome. The pleasure is all mine!
I'm only so glad I could be of any help!
Usually I'm on the receiving end, info wise, so I'm only pleased, whenever I can give something back to all of you great guys on this great forum.

BTW, it's a bit like cheating, putting JBL parts inside the PS1. I think it's unfair that you should have that advantage, over the rest of us.

Hi Bill H.!

The SCPH-101 is the newest model of these PS1's, but you dont want to use it as a CD-drive, since it is very different inside.
Everyone that has tested it and compared it to the oldest models (1001, 5001 and 5501), say it sounds "awful" in comparison.<SCRIPT type=text/javascript> vbmenu_register("postmenu_47921", true); </SCRIPT>

Thanks PANGEA, Guess I will give it back to the little kid I took it from last night.

I'm waiting for a SCPH 1001 to arrive. It it supposed to come with the hand held controllers, memory card, all the OEM wires, and NO instruction manual. I've never had a PS1, so I'm lost as to how to use it for a CD player. Please give me a blow by blow tutorial on connections and such, so I may be able to play a CD. PS1 for DUMMIES is what I need.

[gerard]

hello again rek50


connect the ps1 to the Tv you will find everything , it will show you it is an audio disc ( ps : If it does not work try to start with 45° angle the ps1 , i knwo most of 1002 get a .

Normally you can start directly or type on "X" depends of the Ps1.

hello

I got a 1002 this week end with rca integrated ( may be the lens is not 1002 original ... ) but the motherboard is.

fisrt I test a 9002; not bad but no detail when big band plays s or many instruments !!

test a 1002 againt my cd/dvd player pionneer dv 565 .

1002 got more bass , little less treble , voice a little ahead but very good and warm .

I should say at first testing this cd is like testing phono cartridge , my pionner is nice , soft , aerial , the 1002 more bass , a little bit harder than the pionner .

So , thank you I got a second nice cd player .

Ps : I install remote control from ps2 works nice ; do not remember in case there is a chip on the ps1 to read copied games to remove it ( some cd may not work ; also even if the ps1 only read games at 45 ° , it will read audio in the right position ; that's what i learn this week end .

Just picked up a 1001 for 12.00 on Ebay. Is there an english version on paper, of the mods that should be done to turn this into a first class cd player?

Will get back to you with my impressions.

In fact, according to these specs the max resolution for sound processing is at 16/44.1

Thanks.
