Lines: 9 The December 84 issue of Stereo Review has a test report on Sony's new CD-5 'Discman' - a portable CD player for under $300 (OK that's less batteries the battery pack costs another $50 and earphones) . Julian Hirsch claims the performance is better than the first generation of CD players he tested, although not of the same caliber of todays better players like the Revox. I'm impressed.
