Rotel RCD-955AX
Not much is documented about the Rotel RCD-955AX. It was a stereo compact disc player from Rotel. The surviving record is mostly seller listings and a service-manual page. No original specifications, original price or confirmed production years have surfaced.
Here is what is known. The disc tray uses a belt drive, and replacement belts are sold for both the RCD-955AX and the Rotel RCD-945AX. A UK Audio Mart listing calls the player an “Audiophile TDA1541 DAC based player” in excellent condition, asking $210. The listing title also carries “1991,” which is the only clue to its vintage. Aggregated eBay prices on hifi-wiki show a very good-condition RCD-955AX with remote at €194.96 and a refurbished unit without remote at €160. A June 2020 eBay listing captured there showed a tested, fully operational example with remote at $175 with 9 bids and 13h54m remaining. A service manual and repair info page also exists for the RCD-955AX.
Beyond that, the public record is thin. No measured specs, no period reviews and no owner documentation appear to have survived in the usual channels.
