That really is annoying, and very puzzling. Sorry I don't have a clue about this problem / defect, Fran seems to have stumbled on a phenonmon which I have never heard of before. Maybe you could try taking a ex demo model which has been running in the shop for several weeks, although beware of any bu...

Hi Tony, I think what you want is a step down transformer, not a step up transformer. Domestic supply in Ireland is 230V or thereabouts, most US domestic products run at 110V. Hence you would require to step down from 230V to 110V or 115V. If you were to step up then you would be going from 230 to 4...

I admit I have no experience with Mains conditioners. But I have a few thoughts about them. If your electricity supply is already good quality then there might not be much point in obtaining one. If on the other hand you are aware of a quality problem then it could be a worthwhile investment for not...

Hi SydneyK,

Just a few questions about the 288, how old is the unit and what price range did you have in mind?
You mention the laser mechanism was refurbished, how long ago was that? I don't know much about Copland players but is the 288 a sucessor to the 823?

Regards,

Adrian.
