Peak CD? A vintage CD player so nice, I bought it twice!

Vinyl and even cassettes have had their day; now it's the compact disc having its own revival. Despite that, I think we've lost the plot in the 2020's on what makes a good CD player. The best CD players came from the 1980's, and here's an unsung model you've probably never seen before. I had this player when I was younger, and always regretted selling it.

This is the JVC XL-Z555, and in this video, I'll tell you my little story with it and what I like about it, open it up and show you what's inside, and demo some of its features - including a couple of neat tricks it can do that were pretty unique back in the day and may still be now.
