Audiolab CDT 6000 Owners: Share the Love + Need help with time settings for Pause


I picked one up slightly used ~ 100 hours but now have ~ 50 more, including many  hours with burn in discs. I am truly amazed at the value this transport represents. I have tried several times to set the pause clock, as per the manual; holding for 3 seconds then pushing the same button (#1) but the 20M doesn't hold. Help! 

Here's a fantastic review that is a must read.

I just got one 2 months ago, not sure I understand what you mean by “pause clock?”  Kind of hate how it always goes into stand by.  Minor inconvenience, it’s a very solid transport.

Ok, I did something tonight and I think I reset the Standby feature to “Never”?
 

Push Standyby on the remote for 3 seconds until it says VER-044, then press it again and it will say 20 min, press again it says 1 Hr, press it a 3rd time and it will say “NEVER”

Beware once you get it to say never, now I can’t seem to un-reset it.  I just did this 5 minutes ago, so shortly I’ll see if I was successful in resetting the Standby feature.

You need to have “Repeat” on, otherwise, it will stop at the end of the cd

 

With mine, I have to manually put it into standby now.  No more annoying Automatic Standby

Despite any idiosyncrasies with the remote, this is a pretty solid player.  I’m using a 1.5M Kimber Kable Coax on the transport and some cheaper Coax on my Bluesound Node 2i that’s not as good with an Audio-gd NFB-1s DAC.

 

Other gear:  Meridian 551 int, Meridian 504 tuner, Nakamichi DR2, Ariston RD80SL TT, Schiit Mani, ProAc Super Tablettes, Monitor Audio R700MD

 

What are you using with yours?

Mine hasn’t defaulted to 15 minutes after I put it in standby.  I’m not sure I could duplicate this though so I’ll just leave it be.  I always hated the auto Standby feature anyway.
