Sony CDP-C7ESD CD Changer

[jt01]

I recently picked up a Sony CDP-C7ESD CD changer at a thrift, date of manufacture June 1988. There is very little info on the internet about this item, but decided to take a chance because it was cheap and has a digital coax output, which I figured was rare in 1988. It appears to work well, but the user interface seems unwieldy - there's no power button on the remote and it's difficult to get the CD tracks played in order. Can anyone tell me more about this CD changer? Thank you.

Sony es changer

I may be getting one in about two hours I'll let you know. there's a video on youtube about it and some service manuals available.
I have a Sony es 508 from that era and it's great.

Had a cdp c8esd .. decent player but known to be a noisy one.. I sold it to upgrade to a cdp c89es

sony players are decent changers but a average TT can best them

the mechanism may need adjusting as the transport keys are needed and stop laser carriage rattle.. many blame the laser but its actually misaligned carriage
