Esoteric X-03 SE with extras

Offered by "The Dog" ...buy with confidence ..check my 18 year feedback on Audiogon over 1700 rating at 100% ..   
Up for sale is a very nice Esoteric X-03 SE CD/SACD player . This uses the HIGHLY respected VRDS NEO transport. Some people use it as a player and some as a transport. It is still quite competitive sonically.
 It was Esoteric's last model that used a mutli-bit chip.  
The one is in very good condition with one VERY SLIGHT tick on the upper edge of the face-plate ( see pictures) Also I see a very small mark under the VRDS NEO logo.. See Pictures) both of these flaws are very small. Most would rate it an 8 ... 
 Comes with remote ...   I will also include  an additional Laser data ribbon cable and an additional laser. ( see pictures) 
It is very clean and plays everything I throw at it. The only issue I have ever had is when it is cold and first turned on, the drawer is slow to open the first few times (2 or 3) . After about 5 minutes it operates normally and continues to operate normally the entire listening session. It has done this for years .. I usually just turn it on about 30 minutes before I am ready to listen or better yet from a sonic standpoint ...leave it on all of the time.    
Shipping will be stout as this beast weights in at about 70 lbs shipping weight....and ships in a Huge box. expect 100.00 to 150.00 depending on your location.....I will charge ACTUAL shipping cost to your destination..Shipped in the Factory double box for safe shipping.

These are quite popular as used items and they go quickly so don't miss it..
Any questions just shoot me a email...
Thanks for looking..
