I performed the procedure (Big THANKS! to Sfstereo & Ncarv) and my 9000ES is humming along again.
While I performed the alignment procedure first, what MAY have done the trick (I see it didn't work for some others) is starting at option-2 "drive manual operation" then option-6 "memory check" and then "clear" for default settings.
I did this and a bunch of numbers changed and 9000ES once again playing ALL of my DSD disks.
It worked for me.
3/22/06 - Dang! Thought I was using DSD only disc!
Turns out that player will only play CD layer NOT SACD!
This is progress as previously would't play either layer.
Player will play DSD only disks, however.
