I was wondering if anyone else around here has / had a NAD C541i CD player (or any relatively recent NAD CD player for that matter) that's eventually stopped playing discs? I purchased mine about 6 years ago along with a wonderful C370 Integrated Amp (which is built like a tank and has provided me with years of enjoyment). But about two years ago the player started skipping mercilessly on certain CDs and the problem eventually got worse and worse. Sometimes it didn't even recognize there was a disc loaded. Other times it would play as normal, but the problem seemed very random (regardless of disc, of which mine are all very clean btw).
Since this is my bedroom stereo, which is also hooked up to my computer, I packed up the CD Player last year and stuffed it under the bed with the intention of taking it to my local shop for repairs. Of course it's just been sitting there.
My question is - has anyone else had similar problems and discovered what they were? Is it worth it to repair?
I really loved the sound of the player and I miss it. I feel like I haven't really heard some of my music in a very long time . . .
