AYRE Does NOT have Lasers available for the DX-5. This has been the case for many years now. Michael at Ayre who I have talked to MANY times in the past 4-5 years not only confirmed this BUT told me where I needed to go to find spare parts...which unfortunately is cheap chinese junk. Stop putting out inaccurate information.

Relevant thread here from Ayre's Ryan Berry. Sounds like Ayre no longer has a supply of laser assemblies for the C-5 but *does* have them for the DX-5. |
That thread is almost 2 years old. He also says the TRANSPORT Mechanism (Not the laser assembly) WAS available then...22 months ago. (When OPPO was still in business....have since closed) Feel free to call and get updated info. You will have to buy an OPPO 83 that is working and have them swap the parts in |
Once again I want to thank everyone whom have responded. All information is greatly appreciated. I will be entering an internet black hole for the next two weeks but will check back in after that to see if there have been anymore updates. I have to admit that I am intrigued by Ayre but not if they can't easily service the unit so I will contact them after my return to find out if they can service the the DX-5 DSD. If they can't I would say that the Pioneer LX500 and LX800 maybe the most appealing. Anyone have any thoughts on the Marantz UD 9004 or UD 7007. Thanks again Rusty |
