Recently I am getting random Disc Error on my Esoteric Grandioso CD/SACD player. It can play songs but suddenly it stop and show “Disc Error”. I try different CD and some disc are almost completely new. Sometime it can play for 2, 3 hours without any problem. But sometime it happen a few times in a
listening session (2-3 hours) and it hangs up. If this happen, I need to open the tray
then replay the disc again. But occasionally I can’t even open the tray,
it seem like the belt lose it’s strength. I need to turn off the
player, wait for 30 seconds or a minute then power on again to open the
tray.
I owned 2 Esoteric CDP before (X-03SE and
K-03X), each of them I use almost 5 years without any problem. And this K1 is
only 3 years old, I‘m disappointed about this. A friend told me maybe
there are some mechanical parts problem on the transport system, it can’t read
the disc properly and sometime unable to open the tray. I will
call Esoteric’s distributor next week but want to know if anybody has similar
experience, what reason to cause these problems? Thanks.
