Optical block Sony Wega - fix or replace?

[Geoff Bourquin]

That doesn't look like a good model number, but it doesn't really matter. I wouldn't do it, those optical blocks are expensive and on some models can be a real pain to get in. The new (or rebuilt) will likely eventually get the blue blobs too. If it's free, it might be worth snagging it just for the fun of taking it apart and seeing what makes it tick.
