I'm waiting for three defective units from the local dealer for repair. Will update this thread in a few weeks. I've got a trained tech that repaired my Plinius integrated which was sitting for 5 years, a Krell amp that no one cared to repair. Looking forward on this channel.
Anyone solved MF Tri Vista SACD problems?
I am starting this thread for my friend who bought this Musical Fidelity Tri Vista SACD player as used two years ago. Now the transport mechanism and also the servo board (we think) are broken. Does anyone know if there still is some company who can repair these players or modify them with new parts (transport+servo board). It seems to us that Musical Fidelity has moved forward and abandoned its old Tri-Vista customers. No help from their side at all. All info/help is appreciated.

I'm glad i saw this thread. I was reading a post on Facebook how a guy's friend had the Krell SACD Standard player. He was saying how the Transport was broken and if anyone knew how to fix it. He didn't know about the faulty problems the Phillips Transport had in this Krell SACD player. I sent him a link to this thread telling him about the Phillips Transport was bad. Here's what he wrote. A friend has dragged his older Krell SACD Standard player It seems to have a problem.. I suspect the power supply for transport and front panel may be the fault .Opinions ? |
A friend has dragged his older Krell SACD Standard player It seems to have a problem It’s the Philips FURORE chipset and it cannot be fixed, no matter what anyone is saying. If you wish to confirm it and it’s an sacd unit, send the model and make and simple yes no email to Alex Peychev of APL HiFi He’s was very disgusted with this Philips chipset product release back then and the way they handled them selves over it, and is probably quite over the whole thing by now himself. http://aplhifi.com/ He just happens to make very good dacs now himself also. he’s actually a quiet member here, see if this brings him out, @aplhifi @aplhifi Cheers George |
I put up a thread on this back in 2007, don’t get burnt, value on any of them? $10 for scrap. https://www.diyaudio.com/forums/digital-source/107693-philips-top-line-sacd-transport-servo-decoder-fiasco.html Cheers George |
