DF-1

Post by Steely Joe »

Greetings to all since I am new here.
And I have recently acquired a seemingly rare CJ model. a DF-1.
There is a scarcity of info about this unit and I would appreciate whatever you might have.
Attached are an image.
Thanks in advance.

Very cool unit. Unfortunately, you are correct there is not much info on this unit that I can find. I find it interesting that they would put a CD player and a preamp together in one unit. I'm sure this combination will not be seen again from CJ.

Let us know what you think of the sound.

Here is the CJ official site info: http://www.conradjohnson.com/It_just_so ... a-df1.html

They might have been feeling adventurous. Commercial CDs only became available in 1982 and didn't really get popular until the later 1980's, so this was quite the avant garde piece in its day, I'm sure!
