I have tried unsuccessfully a few months ago to get my 508.20 repaired. It won't read the TOC on any CD I put in it , just keeps trying to load. From what I understand, the lasers go and it's unlikely to find another one. I tried to two local shops here in Portland, OR. Good luck.

After some Internet research, I found the following contact for Meridian repairs: Marc Koval at: Marc Koval The Repair Shop 404-585-1102 [email protected] I have never used The Repair Shop. I suggest you give him a call. |
I used The Repair Shop to repair both my 598 & G68. They both work great now. I also had Mark install a LPS 60 Watt power supply in my G68 that makes it sound much better. I would recommend anyone with Meridian equipment to replace the original PS. Both of my pieces needed repair because the PS went bad. |
I will tell you different. I owned a 508.24 which was a great player in its day, but digital circa 2014 is better. For what the 508.24 cost new ($4000) you can buy a whale of an incredible player. I now own a Simaudio CD player which in my system is better in dynamics and scale. Dynamics was always what I thought to be the 508.24's weakest hand. |
