Bluenote Reliability

Thanks for the responses guys, i appreciate it. You basically confirmed what i was thinking. Italian gear always sounds good
but is rarely reliable. I have had too many problems lately and am not willing to have an unreliable product no matter how good it sounds.Ah well. On goes the search i guess.

You make a good point Trelja. Wouldn't the Bluenote be better
in this regard. I'm pretty sure it uses a dvd transport.Is
it naive of me to think they are better.

I completely agree.We shouldn't have to deal with reliability issues when we spend so much money.A $2000
cd player is considered low end but it's not really
cheap by most peoples standards.My $200 Yamaha dvd
player hasn't malfunctioned once in three years.Over
the course of the last few months i had problems with
2 Exposure 2010s cd players and one Copland which
ironically uses a dvd rom drive. I guess at the end of the day customer support is what really matters. Exposure has a small distributor with one tech who is incompetent. My dealer had to tell him what to fix, he couldn't figure it out on his own.Lol.
Not Good.
