Marantz CD-17 KI Signature CD Player – Ken Ishiwata Special Edition

For sale is my Marantz CD-17 KI Signature CD player, one of the most highly regarded CD players produced by Marantz and personally refined by the late Ken Ishiwata.

The KI Signature models are renowned for their exceptional musicality, superb build quality and detailed, analogue-like presentation. Built during Marantz’s golden era, the CD-17 KI remains highly sought after by audiophiles for its smooth, natural sound and outstanding reliability.

This player delivers a wonderfully open and engaging performance with excellent timing, deep soundstage and impressive detail retrieval. Whether used as a standalone CD player or partnered with a high-quality amplifier, it remains a serious piece of hi-fi equipment capable of competing with many modern digital sources.
