Of course I knew this Problem (Nad 541 without i)
"NO disc"

The truth is, that NAD although  it sounds IMO wonderful,
it is not reliable.
AS far as I knew, it is the 3. Generation whit his problems
(NAD 520/521/251i  and 540/651/541i)
Dont try to get any answer from NAD.
AFAIK  they never write back.
I got no answer, and, if you read www.audioreview.com
you will figure out, *nobody* got an answer.

(I solved the problem for myself to buy a second player
(Arcam DIVA 72, sounds different, but ist very reliable)

But I tried something, and sometimes it works.
When you take out the CD from the Box, it happens, that you
"deform" it by pulling it out  like a "dish"

It tried to "deform" it in the other direction
(Hold it in the center ant pull other direction
(means: fom concav  to convex)
Most times it will work.

I changed my NAD twice, but each unit had other problems.
I wonder , why no test-magazine  writes about thoose problems ?
Or to be honest , I believe I knew why ;-)

PS:
I knew, my english is not the best, in spite of this, I hope, you
understood, what I
mean, if I wrote "deform"
If  my  hint works, please let me know
