The History of ESOTERICs Separate Player Systems
1987 To bring the highest level of musical experience to demanding audiophiles, TEAC launched the ESOTERIC brand as a separate business operation
which exclusively engineered and manufactured high end audio products. Esoterics first introductions included the P-1 / D-1 separate CD player
system. The P-1 was Esoterics first introduction of the truly unique VRDS mechanism, attracting serious attention among many audiophiles of that
era.
1988 The first decade of ESOTERIC history was a rush of new models; the X-1 CD player, the following X-1s, X-10w, and the X-10wD. The P-1 CD transport evolved to the
P-2, and then to the P-2s. ESOTERICs mechatronics, technologies were highly enhanced and accumulated, then fed back to engineering development for more
new CD Players; the P-10, the P-30 and the P-50.
