Iv'e had one of these for a while, supposed to be one of the best CD Players
Rotel ever made. And at the time I was very pleased with it. Then it started
to play up. Intermittant failure with "NO DISK" showing on the digital
readout screen. In the end nothing worked , regardless of disc type used. But the problem was intermitant, sometimes it would play, If I disconnected the unit from the power, and then reconnected it 1 hour later it would play,
So I get the unit , that the guy rushed to finish on a friday night of a
long weekend. Yer right.
Reported the failure to the local dealer / distributer / retailler, who went
into meltdown, Never in 14 years had He ever had a Rotel product fail.
It want to the local autherised repairer, TV Tecnologies, Marcia Street,
Coffs Harbour, NSW Australia. together with a dud remote. Which never did work , from day one. And Yes it did have battries.
.20 days later machine was returned with a new CD Tray, Remote Senser,
and a new remote. One week later , "NO DISK" again appeared.
Hallo, who's f****d up then.
Machine is returned to the Distributor in Victoria, Australia. International
Dynamic's. One week later Player is returned , this is good service,
reporting that they changed the Laser Loom, Plugged it in, "No DISK' on
digital readout.
This time it did nothing, and no amout of re-booting would allow it to work.
Main distributor // importer F****d up.
Poor bloody Retailer goes into complete melt down, Takes large handfuls of
little green Pills, and supplies new machine. All through this fiasco,
Park Beach Music and Hi Fi, have been terrific, Nothing was to much trouble,
I was loaned a substitute player, while mine was away, and also got regular
phone call up-dates, I'm located 100klm from the shop, some of it on dirt
roads, So we only go to town when we have too.
Next day rang International Dynamic's to vent my spleen, Contacted the
Service Manager Ross Woodford, who stayed awake while I told my little story of woe, Promised to look into the problem, Supplied Docket number to assist him. Frankly he did not want to know and didn't really give a Flying
F**k.. Ended up doing Sweet F**k All, and the visiting Rep, to the retail
outlet was far more sympathetic.
So if you buy Rotel in Australia, Forget any help from International
Dynamic's Service dept. There total incapable of repairing the products
they import.. And show no interest in there customers requirements.
And there e-mail address also refuses to work.
Funny thing is, non of these high grade authorised repairers bothered to
look at the Power Supply.. Funny That..
anyone got any idea's.
