Original Electronics CD-A9.3 Leonardo CD player

I brought this CD player and has not used before.             Brand new, unused, in open box.

For the audio manufacturer 
Original, the CD-A9.3 Leonardo represented their top-line digital offering. 

Featuring reliable top 
loading with a magnetic puck, this is a beautiful to behold CD player meant to 
be seen and heard. Silky smooth in sound and operation, the controls feel solid and sure.This particular player has all its original accessories and comes factory snug inside a velvet sock.  It is missing the owner's manual, all other accessories included.

Soundstage is deep and 
wide, imaging precise and pinpoint with plenty of space around instruments and 
voices.  Bass is subterranean and 
midrange presentation is cohesive and realistic, with almost XRCD-like 
smoothness to all Compact Discs auditioned.  
The sound outsizes the price by a wide margin.  Redbook CDs have never sounded this analog at 
this price, ever. 

Original Electronics Ltd. was founded in March 1999 by a pair of graduates from two of China’s top 
universities.  Introduced to North 
America in late 2005, the manufacturer offered specialty audio gear that was 
briefly imported by the late, honorable Ping Gong, formerly of the 
Massachusetts Institute of Technology and AAA Audio distribution.  Ping Gong became passionately interested in 
exposing the West to the best available examples of Chinese audio engineering. 
He combed China for years, seeking the best-sounding and best-crafted gear, and 
ultimately decided on three companies.  
Those three companies were “Dussun,” “Original Electronics Ltd.,” and 
“XLH.”  Tragically, before he fully realized his dream, Ping Gong passed away following a brief illness.

This Compact Disc player 
is among a couple dozen or so products, new and unopened (except this one has been opened for photographs),
