How do you pack a high end CD Player for shipping?


I'm shipping a Sony SCD-1 to my father-in-law and want to protect the laser, moving parts in the CD transport section.  What can I do?

A few months ago, I spoke with Warren Gregoire who did my mods on my SCD-1 15 years ago. I was thinking of sending the SCD-1, with the original packaging, back to him for a look over since I had the unit in storage for close to 10 years. I told him that the foam inserts were flaking due to age. He told me that I should never use those foam insert again because the shock abortion capability is gone when they are flaking like they were. Just a FYI if you were not already aware.

On a side note, after my 10 year SCD-1 hiatus, I listen to 1 SACD each day with the SCD-1 and I remember why I loved this player.
