Accuphase DP-78 doesn't read SACD layer


I have a Accuphase DP-78 SACD player that will play pure SACD's, CD's, and will play the CD layer on a Hybrid SACD but no longer picks up the SACD layer. Has anyone come across this? I tried air blowing the inside was not successful.  Any Suggestions? or can you suggest a reputable NJ or metropolitan area repair?

Hopefully the Accuphase dealer can square you away but if not you may want to contact Music Technology in Virginia.

Bill Thalmann is excellent and has fair pricing.  He modded CJ tube gear for me years ago and I know he or he has a tech that works on sacd/cd players.

By all accounts the Accuphase is a deck worthy of keeping in service and functioning.

Good Luck
