Sony Radio Cassette-Corder CFD-55

This is a domestic, one-owner unit originally purchased new by a family member who is a SONY fan.

The manufacturing year is unknown as it is not displayed, but its chic and unique design, with a retro Showa-era feel and a sense of luxury, is captivating.
The analog operation dials and buttons give it a high-quality feel, and it is an item with a truly impressive atmosphere.

By connecting a cable from your iPhone or smartphone to the AUX input mixing microphone jack (※in the 8th photo), you can enjoy surprisingly high-quality sound♪
The atmospheric playback that allows you to feel the nuances of the sound is, frankly, astonishing for a SONY product from the good old days.
It seems like it would be stylish and cool to use as an active speaker, perhaps placed in a rugged garage.
The sound quality is so good that I hesitated to part with it and considered keeping it, but I have no place to use it... so I would like to pass it on to someone who will appreciate and utilize it.

【Important】
The cassette tape deck is broken and cannot be used.

In the 9th photo,
the contrast of the text on the LCD screen has deteriorated, making it thin and difficult to read.

【Operation Check】
It operates with an AC outlet. The genuine AC power cord is included.
The cord will be stored inside the battery compartment for shipping.

In the 11th photo,
CD playback is possible. The lens was cleaned with a dry lens cleaner before listing.

In the 7th photo,
the FM/AM radio tuner is working.
Tune by turning the bottom dial in the photo left or right.

In the 4th photo,
it has a sturdy handle, making it easy to carry.

In the 8th photo,
pressing the Bass Boost button allows for playback with emphasized low frequencies.

In the 10th photo,
there is a headphone jack.

In the 12th and 13th photos,
it is designed to operate without an outlet by inserting 6 size D batteries, but I have never used it this way, so its operation is unverified.


A paper manual is not included, but operation is not difficult.

I have cleaned it as thoroughly as possible,
but please understand that as this is an item from 20-30 years ago, there may be some minor scratches or signs of wear.

Everything shown in the photos is included.
