Abstract
A reduction in the size of a CD player is achieved by making the transfer roller horizontally displaceable between a first position, adjacent the disk storage magazine, and a second position, adjacent the turntable. The roller is displaced to the first position while a disk is being played. Further size reduction is achieved by making the turntable horizontally displaceable between a first position, remote from the storage magazine, and a second position, closer thereto. The turntable is in the second position while a disk is being played.
