Hello,
Could you tell me few words regarding Pioneer Stable Platter PEA1030/1343 CD mechanism used by Wadia 22,23 models ?
Compared to well appreciated and largely used VRDS CMK-3.2 – KSS-151A or Sanyo SF-HD65 mechanism of 581 model.
I have no personal experience with Stable Platter mechanisms but I do know that most of the iterations are not nearly as stable as one would think. My feeling is that they will sound very different from the VRDS breed.
I see. I’ll take into account your remarks regarding that.
Many thanks for your quick reply.
Hi Christiaan,
can you suggest me please a cd transport with AT&T output, that could be easily repaired also nowadays? I have looked at WT3200, WT2000, ML 37/31/31.5 and others but the spare parts are out of stock today. I found the Aqua la Diva but it’s too pricey….would you have any other idea? thank you!
