I predict that your Xindak SCD-2 is in its "final death throes" to quote Dick Cheney. Hopefully, for you, I am as wrong as he was. The Xindak SCD-2 is a known latent defect based on *your* experience.I am heartened that you see the quality of many Sony offerings, quality I may add that was *always* there.
In any event, I believe you are painting yourself into a corner. But to continue the political analogy, like Bill Clinton, you are the "comeback kid". If anybody can comeback you can (and will). (Smile)
