Anyone solved MF Tri Vista SACD problems?

I concur w. you- Peterferg-

I am certain a trained tech could probably pull this off.
It seems that the "modders" of the past are no longer interested nor engaged in that art?

We need modders for all of our electrical gear needs'. It makes sense that someday a part will malfunction and/or quit working correctly. Most of these so-called high-end companies to not offer the appropriate service/repair options- it is easier to throw-away ( and purchase a newer model).

Keep me posted & Happy Listening!

Is there not two digital input at the back so you can use it as a dac? I just got one used and it sounds really good. Will try the digital in if you want.  You just need to hit ext input on the remote.

MF has had QC issues in the past. It is a shame that this company could not build a better SACD spinner.

It had nothing to do with MF, the problem was as Alex ( aplhifi ) explained above in the Philips FURORE chipset, and it wasn’t just with MF, but with Krell and Philips and a few others that use this chipset.
The chip had a self decay that started from the first time it was switched on and was doomed to fail, and Philips wiped their hands of any come backs. (good on ya Philips)
So do not go near any SACD players from that era, as they may have this chip.
