What method did you use for cleaning it Mike? I have the 1531 and was curious in the event I ever find myself in the same spot you did.

Thanks, Art
I used a distilled water with 1/5 Isopropyl alcohol mixed.took a Q tip dipped it in and whiped the lens.followed by whiping the lens with the dry side of the Q tip.I loosend the Q tip cotton for less friction 1st also.
Thanks Mike, glad to hear you're up and running. The 1531 is really a terrific player IMO.
Have any of you other 1531 owners experimented with any isolation or vibration control for these? I haven't yet, just curious what others are doing....
