new laser/assembly for Cary 303/300 cdp


The laser is going south on my CDP giving me a lot of "no disc" messages. Just wondering can the laser or laser assembly be sourced a lot cheaper anywhere else but Cary?

Thanks Tim! I'll give it a shot. BTW, I saw a Resolution Audio CD50 awhile back for I believe 550(which also has the volume control) & I was real tempted to jump on it. Are those fixable too?
If this is the CD50 you're referring to, it was mine. I sold it for $350 about six months ago.
yes! that's it Tim - a very good sounding player I'm told & w/the built in analog volume control it's tempting.
Much Thanks! for the update- Pehare.
It is good to know that there are some guys still "modding"
cd/sacd players. Our hope is that they nor trade will never go away. Keep me posted & Happy Listening!
Just replaced the laser drive again today, 2 hr job but I'm slow.  Last replacement was done in 2015.  Cary charged me $311 delivered for the laser drive in 2015.  This one I bought NOS on ebay from Taiwan for $75 delivered.  Back in business!  If anybody needs help let me know....Cary no longer does on the phone tech support.....receptionist said you have to email inquiries for tech help....WTF?
