I was playing with no issues, I put the game on pause, when I went to continue the disc doesn't spin and the pause screen wouldn't let me use my controller, I have totally disconnected it from the power then later reconnected but the disc still doesn't spin (try to load) when I turn it on.

I've picked the best & it seems to be a 5502 with a cd drive from a hardly used 9002. My first ps1 was a 9002, it developed multiple faults, so I bought another 4 playstations cheap off ebay, originally just to use for parts (bought 4 because they're so cheap, came with with games/accessories), but they were all in better condition than my original.

How are you using RGB if you're in the US? I thought US sold TVs didn't support RGB? There are RGB (scart tv or arcade) to VGA converters/line doublers/upscalers, but they'll probably introduce a little lag & cost $50+, more (and more lag) for a hdmi 1080p upscaler. Later models seem sharper with defined square pixels. You'll notice much more of a difference between rgb & s-video than you would between different models of playstation, probably impossible to notice the difference if you don't use rgb. Now I got a new 7501, and I'll stay with it.Īs for video, I will use pure RGB so in this part will be much better to me (always used S-video as max).

CD-Rom technology was improving rapidly & getting cheaper when PS1 consoles were manufactured, so the later models all had better cd drives. They tried to cut manufacturing costs with the 750x & later models, so it wouldn't surprise me if they used some worse components for the video output. I think it must be a bit different, or I'm going mad. I can't find anything about the video chips either, but it looks better to me, smoother, less sharp & pixelated than on later models when used with rgb scart. These problems were fixed on the 5xxx series, the laser is better too, but still not as good as the later models.

Apparently you can easily replace the cd drive with one from a psone, not tried it myself, i'm not sure if it needs any mods to achieve.

It isn't possible to easily mod a 5xxx to sound exactly like a 100x through the rca connectors, because it doesn't have that op amp output stage, but the real audiophiles bypass that anyway - it's just the DAC that is supposed to be special.ġ00x psx had a flawed design, the cd drive was very prone to wearing out because it's all plastic, it was on the left of the psx near the power supply & the extra heat made it worse. some audiophiles mod their 100x to remove the 'op amp output stage' that feeds the rca connectors, effectively getting the same sound as you do from a multi-av adapter - which bypasses the output stage anyway, they just do it the hard way. The audio from the multi-av is better than from the 100x rca connectors. The audio shouldn't be hard to make a mod pos-5501.Īlso 550x doesn't have a dedicated audio output, so only 100x have good audio output.
