I had many issues with my Stibbert. I replaced it with a Raysonic 168, added cryoed NOS tubes from tubeman and Herbie Tube coolers. One of my audio friends said the Raysonic sounds even better. So far it's been very reliable. Alas, I did give rup be ability to listen to DADs and DVD-As
Bluenote Reliability
Any Bluenote Koala Tube cd player owners care to comment on reliability. I heard the player and really like the sound, but the build looks a bit iffy.I have had allot of reliability issues with cd players lately(exposure, copland)so i am sick of servicing downtime.Any owner input would be much appreciated.
