What do you listen to your cds on ? ADVICE PLEASE

lol

wonder what Im doing wrong then, its not that difficult you just put the cd in , maybe its me if its never happened to anyone esle either that or I must have been very unlucky.

Oh just remembered I have a carry case cd player that still works but requires batteries.

I guess I will just ahve to take pot luck and buy another one, Im running out of brands !

I've got a Kenwood discman cd player. I've never had any problems with it. It reads all my cd's, even copies. I had a Sony one before that...and it only needed to be replaced because my dog knocked it off the chair outside on the cement patio one day. I've never had a bigger portable type though. Usually, I listen to my cd's on my computer or in my car. Occassionally on my crappy stereo in my room. It sounds like you've just got bad luck with cd players Dawn. Maybe you could talk to one of the guys at the electronics store and see what he suggests. Also, I'd be returning something that stopped working so quickly.

are you putting it in the microwave too???

Dawn have you tried using a cleaning CD once in a while that might help

I know what you mean Dawn, ive had 3 not expensive but not cheap CD players in the last 10 years. Cleaning CDs will work for a little while but I will always end up buying another one. My mum has had a really cheap CD player in the kitchen for the last 7 years though and that plays fine

a what, I DIDNT KNOW THEY EXISTED. I remember cleaning tapes, but in the end thought everyone thought they were rubbish and made your tape deck worse.

R u joking about the cleaning cd ?

Dawn

No i'm not joking i've got one,Hey you havent been putting jam on them again have you?

You can get them for about a tenner from HMV/wollies/Smiths. As I said though, they only work for so long before the problems happens again.

my dads had a massive aiki stereo system (ie seperate cd player, tape deck, power amp, record player etc....) since i can ever remember. talking close to 15 years at least and there's never been one problem with it.

fair enough it's an expensive way to go about it but the sound quality ios much better. you can have speakers round the room hooked up so you get true stereo sound and you can play the tv/ videos/ dvd's through it too.

the one think i will say is that 5.1 mixing is startign to take off in the world of recording now so maybe looking into a 5.1 system is a good idea if you really like to hear whats going on in your music. I'm lookign forward to see how its utilised to it's potential and im sure andy wll fill you in ont he technical jargon about it

Interesting, would a dirty cd player be unable to actually read that discs are not even in the player ? I put a cd in the player and the player says there isnt one in there !!!!!!!

Rusty , I SMEAR IT IN CHIPS remember chiplips x
