Ironically, I know of 2 CDP 101s that are both still

Do they still cut off (truncate) reverb tails the way I
recall ?


Never did.

I think you had a broken one


Wasn't mine but a good friend whose opinion in audio I generally respected a
lot. But we disagreed about the CDP-101. He also had one of those betamax
A/D/As too.


I posted a detailed description of a possible failure that would cause that
symptom last week.


It was a Floyd album it really hit me on. Damned if I can remember which album
or track now though.

The Denon 1700 was a revalation though. And so beautifully built. I had Hayden
Labs service it once and I may yet do so again. I doubt you'll ever find a
more solid, satisfying, reasonably compact transport that closes its door with
a decent CLUNK.
