Esoteric K-03 X - mechanical problems w tray


...just bought a brand new Esoteric K-03X player and have only 14 hours on it and the tray is jammed and the disc is stuck inside. Real nice for this price .....you will see I had the Esoteric P-05 and the D-05 for almost 8 years which I sold here on Audiogon and NEVER had one problem with those pieces. I think I read where others owners were having the same issue...if this is the case not a happy owner. Not to mention the box weighs almost 100 lbs and who is going to pay for shipping and the hassle of boxing it etc. After 40 years with this hobby .....more of a headache anymore than fun !

I tend to agree w/ Talk2me. CD is not dead, far from it, actually.

Gary- how is your spinner doing?
Keep me posted and Happy Listening!
So great to read that you are back in the world of listening to music- Gary.

Another thought on cables/cords to match your Esoteric spinner- Silent Source and Wireworld 7 series.
There are probably more wonderful cabling suggestions, I can only recommend the ones by my ears.

I have posted a query about other Esoteric players, asking
the difference(s) between DV-50/60, SA-50/60 and the X-03, X-03SE ?
Guys-

which cables/power cords are you using with your Esoteric spinners? I am always curious to learn about new spinner/cabling combos! Keep me posted & Happy Listening!
Thank You! Guido-

anyone else want to give a shout-out for their fave cable/power on their Esoteric spinner?

Keep me posted & Happy Listening!
