Just wanted to give a BIG thanks to razpones for his post here. Just like him, deck 1 would simply not read any CDs at all. I replaced all of the surface mounted caps with proper radial caps, and laid them down as well. (Fortunately the laser head does not knock the new caps out of the way...

That is a really nice deck you have there! :) Best $6 I've ever seen spent on any deck. Check out the manual for the V700...it should be darn close to the V800 other than the DBX NR. If you want details on the DBX NR, pull up the V900X manual. It should be on hifiengine. I might have...

It's a bear to work on! :( Hey there, I know I'm late to the game, but I just swapped out the belts on my V-800X a few days ago. As others have mentioned, you have to pretty much take the deck apart, but you can probably get away with just loosening the front panel, and the power board...
