problem with levinson no 37?

I have a levinson 37 transport and I just purchased a used copy of the Sony, 20 bit, Miles Davis Kind of Blue. The Levinson is unable to read the disc but all of my other players have no problem with it (cheap bedroom player and car player). The disc appears to be in perfect cosmetic shape. I guess my question is, do you think the problem is with the disc or the player?

Rives is exctly right. I had the same problem on a few CD's with the 37. It just would not play them--maybe one in a couple hundred. As I recall, it happened most often on CD's where I had used the track memory to play specific selections. I sent it back to Madrigal for a total overhaul and the problem was reduced, but never completely went away. Otherwise, a very nice unit.

Mstram: see my comment above. This is exactly what happened to me. The same discs would play perfectly first in my Marantz CD burner, and later in my Sony SCD-1. They still play perfectly in my Classe Omega. I never figured out what the problem was with the 37.
