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?

Jafant I went talk to stereo rehab guy Casper very nice guy. Nice store. I did not bring my SA10.He said , he can do it. Only if the parts came from Encompass.So yes I like Him to do it.TVAD thank you.

You’re welcome, @jayctoy. I hope things continue to work out favorably until you have a working SA10 again.

Thanks also to @sharri for identifying the correct part and purchase resource. 

Some time ago I wrote about Aging Mode and how people can check their laser hours and laser output levels. I check my laser hours on the first of every month, just because I can do it. I also check laser output levels every 6 months. The laser output level is the T21 and T22 in Aging Mode. The critical numbers really are the T2 hours and the T22 output levels. These are the sacd laser numbers. I just checked mine. In the past 6 months I put 330 hours on my sacd laser. The T22 output level was unchanged. 

I would urge every user to keep track of their sacd laser output level, the T22 check. It is simple and easy to do.
