I used to on my PS1 and Saturn. Actually, the first CD I ever purchased was Nirvana’s Nevermind, and the first CD player I had to play that on was the Sega CD.
I often used the original Playstation and then my Dreamcast for CDs but not in a long long time.
Even though the PlayStation logo wail always made me feel uncomfortable, if I had an cd in the PS1, booting to the save manager/audio player creeped me out even more
I loved the visualizations on on the PS1
If you have a specific PS1 model it apparently has very good audio capabilities.
On both the 3DO and the PS1, and possibly the Dreamcast and the CD32. They all had these fun visualizations, IIRC, that were unique to each console.
CD32 was my first CD player, was all cassette for me until then
