Shanling ET-3 owners - a couple of questions, please


My Audiolab 6000CDT ate a CD and would not give it back through the slot . . . without some major coaxing by me.

The ET-3 is getting great press and scuttlebutt.  But I'm trying to see how the ET-3 would work for me . . . and I'm finding zero info about the remote and whether it has track numbers so that an owner can jump from track to track on a CD.

Related, does the ET-3 allow an owner to program selected tracks before playing a CD?

Mundane and old-school questions, I realize I'm asking, but I wouldn't want to buy a new CD transport and not know. . . .

Your real-world advice is greatly appreciated!

Speaking of remotes, my year old Shanling SACD1.3 remote stopped working. It's the receiver in the player that failed. Previously the drive mechanism failed which I repaired after a long fight with Shanling to get a spare under warranty.

The main thing Shanling is known for over the decades is poor reliability. I should have known better.

I recommend you consider another option.
