Default Are Arcam CD players really of poor build quality?

Over a period of time 'double sided sticky' will dry out
and lose its adhesian. I would not like to find a high
quality piece of audio equipment held together with this.

It is cheap and shoddy.

Not all industrial adhesives are the same. Performance and quality
vary according to design and cost. Adhesives are often used where they
provide better performance than traditional fixing methods.

Can't comment specifically on Arcams use of adhesive tape, but if it
was chosen with the care they apply to the rest of their design then I
think it will do the job well.


What standard of adhesive tape do you think
the typical service dept will use. ?


Who cares? If it was done right by Arcam, then it won't need to be
replaced. The next time you go abroad on holiday, remember that the
aitcraft is mostly held together with adhesives....................
