So i go to fire up my 578A, and the display says "No Disc" no matter what I put into the drive - SACD, DVD-A, DTS, even standard CD.

Anyone run into this? Is there a fix?
 
I had this same problem with a 575A model. Although cleaning the lens helped for a while the only solution was to replace the laser lens assembly because the laser gets weak after a few years. They cost about $25 from ebay and it really is very easy to change the module over.
 
Thank you all for the help! I have a 563 as well, so perhaps I'd better stock up on a handful of lenses just to have around :)
 
PMFJI - I just want to mention that I scored a Denon DVD-1940CI for $50 + $20 shipping for a friend. I scored his cousin (my guitar tech) one of these units brand new for $88.88 in 2009 and it has never failed.

I used to have one of these Pioneer DV-578A players and finally got tired of the issues it had.
