I'm having problems w/the 598: The slightest tap on the remote of either the track/chapter skip buttons, or the menu navigation buttons, yields a jump of two tracks, or two menu items. This happens on various discs, CD and DVD. Using my programmed MX-500 yields the same result, indicating something with the machine itself. Any ideas?

I'm using firmware 1.02. It just occurred to me that I haven't tried the track/chapter skip buttons on the unit to see if it is possibly an IR command issue. I will.

I'm also getting dropouts on DVD-A, and occasional no sound on startup, necessitating a power down/up that rectifies the problem. Hope I don't have a Meridian PMDT on my hands.

I'm considering writing Lexicon for additional compensation on the speakers I sold thinking they were deficient. Put the blame in the wrong place.
