Great CD Deck. I have used about 10 in different installation. Only one which give me a problem that I cant solve. The CD drawer keeps opening. When machine is tilted on about 45 degree angle it will work properly, but putting it back level it will no work. Any suggestions appreciated |

Strength:
Price point for a unit with pitch control, wide range of pitch, quiet mech, sensible arrangement of controls, very readable display, remote control, coax and optical digital outputs, electronic shock protection works very well. Reads MP3s.
Weakness:
Weak optical system causes slow reading of TOC on imperfect discs and failure to locate tracks in track search or random mode. Very early component failure. Distortion of analog audio on loud passages. My client is an aerobics instructor so this unit sees heavy use, but that is no excuse for a component failure after only three months in service. Not one, but TWO of the tac switches, play/pause and stop, had become intermittent in that short time. The play/pause in particular was almost inoperable by the time my client brought it in for repair.
Similar Products Used: Hundreds. Perhaps thousands. I've been repairing CD players since they were invented. |
