I was wracking my brain trying to remember the name "nakamichi" but the only thing that I could remember was "dragon". Certainly not many buttons.

If anyone wants it, I have an NAD cd player I'll give away for shipping cost...

NAD is also know for clean front panels but, I don’t remember them having rounded corners.

Any other clues on the style of the transport tray?

I seem to remember it having just a slot not a tray.

That’s wild, I thought they only did car stereo. I took a look at the pictures and it isn’t what I’m looking for though.

So, is it a curved front like some Marantz CD players, or with rounded off corners but flat on the front?

I originally thought he meants #1, but now I think he means #2 - flat, rectangular front with rounded corners.

I think he means something like this

Thanks Steve, there are flat fronted Marantz CD players with rounded corners but the tend to have a whole to of buttons. Opposite to a Cambridge Audio with almost no buttons.

Not curved. Not starting with an A. But Oppo? Very clean looking.

Bill,

I just searched Cambridge audio and their Topaz CD-10 is similar in what my tiny brain is remembering.

Thanks

This is a Carver CD player that I still have from the 80's

[serene911]

Bang & Olufson CDX and 4500 cd players

[herr_oberst]

This is the Azur from Cambridge

Crown makes hi end components but I only briefly searched for an image and didn't see anything like you described.
How about Yamaha?

[rwest]

Serene, Herr and Joe,

Thanks for looking, but still not what I think I remember.

Was it top loading? AMR CD777

[greglepore]

Classe. If you google images for Classe CD they had numerous variants with rounded edges.
