Mark Levinson 39 Drawer problem

😢 so sorry to learn, eish.
I specifically made the lenghty effort to register (quite a pain...) to share my own experience with this issue. 
In fact I have to do a 'rod cleaning' yet again some time soon. Having switched off the unit over last night it once again refused to open, and only worked once sufficiently warmed up. I'm using my ML390S mostly with my ML36 Dac as I generally prefer sound of this ladder dac. 
Truly such a PITTY!

indeed a pity! I am going to replace one other component as a last resort. If that fails, I am doomed...

Let's hold thumbs that it works, and keep us updated 😌

It’s 20 years old...let it go...😉

Noooo, only if you really must! And then what? Streaming, and junk all of your CD collection? 
How about sustainabilty, 'Nachhaltigkeit'? 
Those are such nice and ever so well build units, definately no cheap-skate trashy throw away consumer junk. 😟 
I know this sounds quite emotional, and it is. Eish! 😢😱😖
