I've had this CDP since new but it has spent several years in the loft, having been ousted first by a Cambridge something-or-other and now, for the last 7 or 8 years by Rega Apollo-R. I hawked it down the other day and plugged it in. It lights up and the remote still works! However, it jumped all over the place on the first CD I put on (played faultlessly by the Apollo). I've never done any diy stuff myself but I'm tempted to use it as a bit of a test bed to see if it can be brought up to higher level of performance. Can anyone suggest how to sort the skipping out and then maybe some internal upgrades that a newbie/numpty like me might be able to take on? I have zero electronics knowledge but I'm reasonably fastidious and I own a soldering iron. What could possible go wrong?
