It carries the Sony mechanism as SCDXA9000ES, common issue, reads all but SACD layer on hybrids, you can change the laser but this will happen again sooner or later. I have learned to live with this, as i have mine since 2005. Laser changes are easy but require the test material (discs) for adjusting correctly the biases for CD & SACD. Better check with Accuphase or find somebody who knows how to do it.
