Home Hi-Rez Highway

New high resolution SACD releases, players and technology.

I put up with intermittent errors for months on my Sony 2000es

67.140.80.99

Dealer told me if it's not a good solid problem, they probably won't be able to fix it. Right, and I kept using it with increasing annoyance.

At 3 years on the five year warranty and increasing problems with hybrid SACDs, I finally sent it back. The hybrids would give a 13 error, or if they played as SACDs would stop playing at any time, or they would only play as CDs. All very intermittent on all hybrid disks. The standard CDs and SACDs were ok. Sony replaced the laser mechanism.

Since getting it back I've only had one misread with a hybrid. I think this is a chronic problem with this player. My conscience would bother me now, if I tried to sell this player. It sounds pretty good, but much is lacking in the reliability.
