CD transport warmup

If your unit is truly 'off' your situation would be normal, I think, IME anyway. But I've never used this unit.

If it does not totally shut off, but goes into a standby mode, I don't know, you'd think that is what a standby mode is for. Personally, unless it generates a lot of heat, I'd just leave it on.

+1… leave it on. You will not need a CD player much longer and as long as it is not spinning the electronics will last for a long time.

actually CDs are making a comeback I knew this was going to happen right after LP started to make it come back that's why companies are still making CD players and transports.

Hi.

Congratulations for a good ear and for a revealing system!

(I can only wish that i were able to hear that type of nuances.)

I have no clue what "needs to wake up" to make the transport to perform.

Maybe put it in a warmer spot like on top of power amplifier or something maybe then the warmup time will be shorter?🤔

An hour? Its either poorly designed or faulty, despite your assessing the probability of these things to be unlikely. Anything else that you mention is extraneous.
