I forgot to mention, Esoteric's distributor told me they never see this problem before. They said if this is the reading head's problem, it will unable to read disc at the beginning, but not suddenly stop and show "Disc Error". They suggest me to set the player to Factory Default, I have done this today but the problem still there.......
Esoteric Grandioso K1 "Disc Error"
Recently I am getting random Disc Error on my Esoteric Grandioso CD/SACD player. It can play songs but suddenly it stop and show “Disc Error”. I try different CD and some disc are almost completely new. Sometime it can play for 2, 3 hours without any problem. But sometime it happen a few times in a
listening session (2-3 hours) and it hangs up. If this happen, I need to open the tray
then replay the disc again. But occasionally I can’t even open the tray,
it seem like the belt lose it’s strength. I need to turn off the
player, wait for 30 seconds or a minute then power on again to open the
tray.
I owned 2 Esoteric CDP before (X-03SE and K-03X), each of them I use almost 5 years without any problem. And this K1 is only 3 years old, I‘m disappointed about this. A friend told me maybe there are some mechanical parts problem on the transport system, it can’t read the disc properly and sometime unable to open the tray. I will call Esoteric’s distributor next week but want to know if anybody has similar experience, what reason to cause these problems? Thanks.
