Marantz SA10 sacd player

I love this player , after 3 yrs and 2 months I purchase it. It doesn’t read single layer sacd. It’s out of waaranty.So United Radio marantz authorize won’t repair it. Is this a common issue on this expensive sacd player?

They come with a small lump of solder that prevents static damage. upon receipt, that lump of solder needs to be separated, not hard for a repair person. I did it. ................................................... Have you tried one of these? cd lens cleaner simple cleaning has solved my friend’s as well as mine a few times

A fine height adjustment is needed to position the laser so it’s beam focuses/finds the sacd and cd layers. Adjusting for CD layer is easy, the very fine adjustment to read the SACD layer is hard. They ship them all over the world, and they stay aligned.

They only repair within warranty. Corelli I agree I will do my best to find a place to repair it.

They might give me a break , since SA10 is their flagship sacd player.
