My Micromega Stage 3 Stopped Producing Sound


I just recently bought it from a person on Audiogon. It was working fine until tonight. It appears to be spinning the CD as if it was playing but I do not get any sound.

I replaced the interconnect, tried plugging it into other inputs on my pre-amp. I even tried another CD player in the current input and it worked fine. So I have determined it is my Micromega Stage 3.

I think I must be missing something on the operation of my Micromega CD player.

Any Ideas??

Thanks,

Can't pop out off my head too much(there are plenty depending on what you're listening to) but I use the old-ish EAD DSP7000 and happy as a sheep.
Meridian 563, Theta Basic are pretty much on the same level as my EAD and cost arround $300-500 used. From Sonic Frontiers I would recommend SFD2 but this is in the range of $1000.

Try to bring it to any local dealer or someone who has such to hook it up first to make sure that the digital out is OK.

I mostly listen to regular red-book CDs since my higher resolution system is analogue and no SACD or XRCD or video-format CDs can beat it and such DAC as EAD DSP7000 MK2 is good enough for me that I've got for $250.
Thanks, for your recomendation. Would you mind suggesting a reassonably priced DAC. (new or used)

Thanks,

...try out using DAC and the digital output of your micromega(btw it has a great transport!)
If everything is OK than get some good DAC and use your player as a transport. I bet you didn't pay for your player too much. Besides sending it for a service might cost much higher than getting just a DAC.
