SONY SCD-1 CD/SACD Player

I have one of the above unit which has experienced a disc reading problem. The unit must be switched on and warm up for more than 30 minutes before it can read any disc (either CD or SACD. Please advise reason or comment if anyone has experienced same kind of problem for this model.
I wish that some one will provide the contact of any service or repairing center which can do upgrade and service for this model. Thanks.

Tonykay,

I would not, not buy a Sony SCD because of these threads. I have a 777, and its killer. Things may break down, but given the amount of units in circulation, its not that bad.

All said and done, there are a lot more working than not.

I had a 777 and an SCD-1. Both would not read a disc from time to time. I discovered that if I left the units powered up 24/7 that I no longer had the problem.

The Sony 5400es is much better than the 777 I had and does not have the same type of transport so there will be no sled problems with this unit.

Once I fixed the sled drive issue (easy fix) I have had no other problems with my scd-1. However, I would be concerned about buying one because of the age and the availability of parts.
