Capacitors are checked for telltale signs of predictive failure including bulging, shrunken wrappers, or physical leakage. We also inspect resistors and other passive components for signs of overheating. When the unit is first powered on we check the drawer mechanism function. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAfter the visual inspection we connect the CD Player RCA outputs to our Sencore PA81 Power Analyzer which simulates a real world input impedance and allows us to monitor the output on an oscilloscope. We start with a test CD with precision test signals to verify proper output on both channels. If the CD player has balanced outputs these are also tested at this time.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIf this check passes, we move onto evaluation with actual music CDs. We listen for clicks, skips, and drops during playback. At this time we also check the transport functions including Play, Pause, Stop, Repeat Track, Next Track, Previous Track, Fast Forward, Rewind, and programming if applicable. If the unit has a remote control, all remote control functions are verified. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIf the CD player is capable of SACD playback we test its ability to read SACD layers on multiple discs including standard and hybrid SACD's. At this time we also check the unit’s digital outputs where applicable. If SACD layers are being properly read we should see the digital outputs mute during playback. On redbook CD playback we verify that each digital output maintains proper lock on our bench DAC. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAfter bench testing is completed, CD players are set up for testing on our long term test rig. During extended testing we make sure that unit can play through several different discs from beginning to end with no skips or lockups. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"McIntosh","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47845778587902,"sku":"107472","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0003\/3275\/9084\/files\/mcintosh-mcd350-sacd-cd-player-pre-loved-digital-882.jpg?v=1777733297","url":"https:\/\/skyfiaudio.com\/en-gb\/products\/mcintosh-mcd350-sacd-cd-player-pre-loved","provider":"SkyFi Audio","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
