I have a DTR 5.5 paired with B&W CDMNT series speakers in 5.1 sound.
Last April began having problems with unit just days before warranty ran out. Problem: unit turned on by itself and would switch between various play modes by itself. I got unit repaired under warranty, shipping included. Some typed of computer circuit chip was replaced and something else.
Now, just a couple week ago the same thing started happening all over again. I call service shop to find out what it would cost (assuming it was the exact part failure again) to have it fixed. Cost of previous repair was about $300. So I may be looking at that plus shipping both ways out of state. And it may just be a problem with this particular unit that could happen again.
So I'm weighing repair against buying something else, even used but better. What would be a comparable unit to what I have or a step up? I'm open to other brands, but I'll probably have to by something used.
Thanks for any help.
