Can transport in Philips SACD 1000 be replaced?

Bill--didn't you say you were looking for a good doorstop? I think we've both found it.

Alex is advising that he will repair what he has in house but is not taking on additional SACD-1000 units for repairs. Alx has a forum board over at Audiocircle...

The more I hear about Phillips and the pervasive problems with the SACD 1000 units the more I'm surprised there is not a class action law suit holding them accountable for selling time bombs to consumers.

Ramstl, That would be More Righteous than the Millie-Vanilli Lipsync class action suit! This Fisher Price-ish player even at 20% mfrp was a joke right out of the box. It should have been rated Stereophile Class B for BAD! When TAS stated it wasn't far off the $28,000 Accuphase combo, someone was smoking Puff while chasing the digital Dragon! Where do I sign? I still own it's powercord, I use it for dental floss, thankfully it had an IEC!

Thank you Drhst20 and Brainwater. I have been writing back and forth to Alex and believe he can help me.

I really appreciate you sharing your knowledge.

Best wishes,
