Undefined Nakamichi CD500 radio/cd, brand new in box

[Pedro]

Hello,

I´ve got a couple of auto radios for sale. European market (don´t know if there are any differences to the US ones) Nakamichi CD500, they have never been used, never connected to anything, absolutely new. The only time one of these was ever taken out of the box was for me to take these pictures, and I´m probably keeping it and selling the others. If you buy you´ll get the box like it came from the factory, still in the original plastics.

Sold one to a friend and tested it on his car today, it really does sound clearer, sharper, cleaner, compared to a more mundane brand. I think these are really a top notch item, supreme sound quality.

Several backlight colour combinations possible.

I would expect payment by bank transfer with charges your way. On the other hand I will take care of shipping fees via messenger with a tracking number.

I´m expecting 400€ if shipping to the US.

Nice and simple looking, is this a rare model or something? 400!?

I tested one of these radios that I sold to a friend in his car, which is a VW Caddy with a pretty good Alpine radio, a cheap amp and some cheap speakers, and it completely transformed the sound. It´s amazing. Driving back home after that in my E91 with BMW Professional sound system, listening to the same CD, and suddenly my car´s sound is worth crap.

It´s a top quality radio with a really discrete simple look. You don´t have to be an audiophile to recognize and enjoy crisp and clear music.

Here is a CD400, which looks just like the CD500 but is unable to read MP3, fitted to an MX5
