Former dCS Service tech here. The controller board with all the regulators and the Ring DAC board (running at Class A) both give off a bit of heat. Completely normal for the Puccini Player to warm the CD.
dcs Puccini heats up CDs
Hello,
I purchased a dcs Puccini player a few days ago. It sound great, but what irritates me is that the CD tray is always very warm, and CDs come out pretty warm after playing, although the outside of the player is not very warm at all. I would say the CDs are at least 20 Degrees Celsius above the ambient temperature when they come out of the player. Can Puccini owners confirm that this is normal for the Puccini? If so, is it a property of the dcs construction or the Esoteric drive in general, meaning that other players with the same drive also heat up the CDs? Thanks in advance!
