I've been using the Cary CD308T since 2003 or 2004 but it developed a problem - interrupted playback. I brought it to a tech this year as I thought that the problem was caused by the old and weak laserhead.The tech said 'no' and replaced the stock caps underneath the plate with Nichicon caps, which did not help. Then, as he said, he found the problem - there was some faulty Philips PCB regulating a drive motor...Such PCB is unobtanium but he managed to find one, after which it works, with some limitations. He brought be a new optical laser lense free (he ordered it from China) but said it was not the problem with the
optical laser lense.
To make a long story short, I ordered a new Canor 1.10 CD player/DAC which cost me EUR 3.000 (including a 30% dealer's discount).
It is an excellent device but the Cary sounds more delicate and sweet - such music as Yello ands Clannad sounds better with Cary!
