Default Marantz CD6000 and CD-Rs - an appeal for suggestions



"baseball bat" wrote in message
.. .
I've recently picked up a used Marantz CD6000 KI Signature and I find
that it won't always play CD-Rs I've burned myself. It will
occasionally not read past the TOC on a disc, or if it does, will not
skip from one track to the next. Instead it throws up an error
message and does nothing. But if left alone it will play straight
through a disc without a problem.



Given that the CD6000 is capable of reading the much lower
reflectivity CDRWs by design rather than accident, I'm surprised there
is a problem with CDRs

Having said this (and it may not be good news), I had a problem with
my CD6000 OSE skipping, mainly on CDRs, but occasionally on pressed
discs.

Fortunately it was under warranty at the time. I seem to recall it
needed a new laser and also an official "mod" - an extra capacitor
added in, or possibly a change of capacitor value; can't remember
which

If you know what you are doing, it might be worth cleaning the lens on
the laser
