Yamaha "vintage" CD Player

I am looking for what might be called a "flagship" Yamaha single disk CD player possibly from the late 80s. One possiblity may be the CDX-1100U. I have a photo of the inside of one and it looks like a lot of effort went into the analog (output) section.

Is the CDX-1100U a good one to be going after or is there a better one? Any comments wecomed !! Thanks !!

That would be one possibility.
I would say that the early cdplayers, especially the TOTL models, were much more robustly constructed than today's units, BUT, today's units are much improved all around than those first generation players.
Cdplayers, being a digital thing, are one piece of gear that isn't always 'better' in a vintage piece.
I've got 9, 10, 11 or so, and a couple portables, and with cd's, I have not really heard anything to jump and shout hosana's about.
