Marantz CD5000 tray stuck

Jun 13, 2006 2 Replies

The cabinet door was closed when the tray was out. This must have knocked it off track or something, as it will not close.



questions:



  1. Can it be fixed, either by me or a repair shop?
  2. Is it worth fixing it? It worked fine before the incident, but I expect there are newer models with better specs for 0 or so. Not sure...

TIA

It depends oon the fault. have a look, if the teeth have been stripped of the tray or the shaft with the cog is bent those parts will probably need to be replaced if not it may just be wedged and only need un-wedging.

It may be possible to use CD-rom drive parts in there.

Marantz was a high end brand last time I checked, not like the cheap crap sony etc are selling to consumers these days.

Still a new player may have features like te ability to play compressed tracks (MP3/OGG etc..)
