Bizzare Oppo 95 failure

Suddenly, all redbook CDs have distortion - constant, fuzzy distortion, but worse on transients - but SACDs play completely fine. This conclusion is certain - I have tried at least a half dozen each RBCDs and SACDs over a couple days.

The results also apply to both the SE and balanced outputs.

I have never heard of a digital player failing in this manner. And it is only a couple months old as well. Has anyone else ever heard of or experienced such a thing?

Paulfolbrecht,

My Sony 777 ES player had a separate laser for the SACD & redbook discs, I believe.
Maybe your Oppo is the same, and the redbook laser or transport has a problem?
