Rega Saturn no longer reads CD's


In January, I purchased a used Saturn here on Audiogon, which was built in 2007. It would misread CD's now and again, but worked without incident most of the time. I thought it was a problem with the few CD's I tried to play, but they worked in my Naim player. As of last week, it would no longer read any CD's. After the initializing process, the display reads: "no disc". Per the Sound Organisation, I removed the power cord in an effort to "reboot" the system. It didn't work. If anyone can shed some light on this problem and, specifically, how I can resolve the problem, I would appreciate it quite a bit. Thanks.

Glad to hopefully be of help !

I employed a few relatively simply, yet incredibly effective 'devices' to the Saturn which cumulatively resulted in truly phenomenal improvement to the already excellent machine.

Other than the Terra Firma 'enhancement' linked to below, I also installed Bybee filters on both the live and neutral a/c line input and Lundahl Amorphous core output transformers which feed the line outputs DIRECTLY from the onboard dacs (which additionally have individual ultra high quality power supply de-coupling caps added).

The player itself is supported by three Boston Audio 'Tune Blocks' using tungsten carbide bearings, sitting on a fully magnetically levitated platform which itself is mounted on a constrained layer rack of my own design.

I power my source components from an isolated, symmetrical a/c, parallel choke filtered 'power station' of my own specification which in conjunction with the transformed outputs, enables the Saturn to be truly galvanically isolated from the rest of the system.

Individually the steps taken above provided readily apparent improvements to aspects of the musical delivery, together the final resulting benefits are FAR more than the sum total of them !

These recurring problems with the Rega Apollo/Saturn is the reason I've kept my Planet 2000.
I've not experienced a single issue since having the transport and ribbon cable replaced, which is getting close to twelve months ago.
I think Rega quietly resolved any niggling issues sometime back.
