Any hope at finding these ?


Little, unless you're a Philips dealer or hold a Philips spares account.
They will supply them, but I don't think I have ever seen anyone who does
them as a second source supplier. Most of the Philips CD recorders that I've
seen over the years have been dual deck jobs with a play only and a
play/record deck, and in most cases I've found it to be the play only laser
that was faulty. The one on the record deck has seemed to be pretty
reliable, although I have changed a couple.
