Well it looks like my beloved 12 year old Sony CDP-X559ES is on it's way
out

It is all pointing to a transport problem. A few seconds (and always the
same few seconds) after pressing play at the start of the disk it skips
a bit (whatever disk is used), then occasionally it does the same thing
a few minutes later. Then it plays perfectly.


My Roksan is doing this. 90% of the time it skips several times, but
only on track 1. Also, it will just displays zero's after skipping to
another track - refusing to do anything until the CD has been ejected
and put back in.




You need one of those new Jap-tweaked (valve OP stage) high end jobs - I
think they're called Wadia-Noh?
