Hi all,
I have bought this Vimak DT800 player for it looked to be very similar to the Wadia 16 I recently fixed. A lot of FPGAs, quality build, digital inputs, quality mechanism (CDM-9 Pro).
The trouble is, there is very little info on it.
Please let me know if you have any technical documentation (Service Manual,
/ Circuit Diagram) or have worked on it. It is so new that I have not had a chance to take it apart and examine it, so I do not even know what DAC it uses.
For now, I have no digital output (but input is fine), no display, no headphone output and previous owner assures me it is very intermittent in its operation (although it works on analogue outputs for me now and works very well).
I would even be grateful to find out what remote codes it uses, so I do not have to program Logitech's Harmony with countless codes... I naturally tried Philips remote given it has a Philips mech but it failed to respond. Which of course might be another fault given that half of front panel does not work. 🙂
Here is a little video I put on my uTube channel:
Vimak DT800. Great player about which I know very little. - YouTube
Thanks for an info.
