Hi

Looking to free up some cash to embark on a vinyl project I've finally decided to take the plunge and list my Lector t7 MKIII for sale. As a cheap (advance ;-) replacement I've just grabbed a newly listed Meridian 596 CD/DVD transport on the bay for £200. It seems like a bit of a bargain given its reputed audio performance which is suggested to be one of the best in the 500 series... Will be interesting to see how it compares to the Lector. Am I right in thinking the Meridians are still serviceable, with laser mechanisms easy to come by?
