Great looking LD-S2. Very quiet running and fully functional.
The Good: This has the AC-3 mod so it outputs AC-3 RF out of an RCA jack on the rear and it works. I ran it into a Denon pre-amp and it sensed the AC-3 RF input. I just recently replaced the belt for the tray. While in there I removed any old, sticky grease I could get to and replaced it with fresh white lithium grease. This should be trouble free for quite a while. I purchased 2 of the belts so I still have a new o...ne which is included. The remote works and is not sticky, grimy, dirty, or otherwise unpleasant. The original manual is included.
The not so good: as indicated in the item condition section, the top panel was repainted. It looks nice and glossy from a few feet away, but up close you can see imperfections, dust?, and several nicks. No dents or scratches into the metal though from what I can see. Paint and body work just isn't my forte so I am not attempting to fix that. Unable to see it when it is inside an A/V cabinet anyway. There are 8 screws total that hold the massively heavy cast iron plate onto the bottom of the player. 2 of them are missing. It does not seem to hurt anything, but I like to put everything out there so you have no surprises. I could not find any in my stash of screws that would work.
Will be heavy duty double boxed and insured for shipping. Local pickup is also available and will waive shipping charges if you can pick it up here.
