  Why not pop a new laser in the 7007 then? I think they're less than $50 on eBay.

    I had it fixed by Marantz, but cost almost $300.
    The original part lasted over 5 years, but the repair/replacement of a module of some sort only last a year or so.
    It's now out of production, and I wouldn't have it repaired again.
    The Sony 1000ES is only $500.
    But I wouldn't want to have to turn on the TV just to play a CD or SACD.
    I'm considering the new Pioneer at $1000, but no reviews yet.
    Streaming is fine on Amazon Prime/Netflix, but I have a number of DVDs I want to be able to watch too.

      It seems that most of the older universal players have some Achilles heel.
