I don't know what's the cause but I to have noticed this. It started appearing around the same time DVD players did, from my experience most DVD players don't hold up that well. I am not sure if its because with addition of DVD players in a lot of homes so many more parts are needed and quality control goes down due to the increased demand??? just a theory.
what happened to cd player build quality ?
that is obvious from reading the audiogon/audio asylum fourms and personal experience that any new cd/sacd will more than likely need repair somewhere down the line..
what happened ? i remember the "good ole days" one could buy a used cd player and expect it to be problem free for years or at least get it repaired( i still have a "used" jvc 1010 after 15 plus years and it works great)
would contribute this to high performance or crappy production or both? any thoughts on the matter?
