Thanks much for the parts. I am not above scrounging around.
- A shame that an expensive player is basically un-repairable after 10 years due to a simple motor.
My Mission DAD-7000 works fine and sounds good as new (which actually is not that good!), after I replaced the drawer belt with an O-ring form the hardware store. I even have a working Magnavox CD-1, which sounds even wore than the DAD-7000.
Yet Art Dudley's Sony and my Toshiba are feet-up on the table before their 10th birthday!
