Default Is my Hi-Fi dead? Please help

"Kanulondon" wrote in message . uk...
Hello All

I am looking for a bit of help....I recently bought a Sony MCH 6700 2nd hand
off a friend...its exactly the same as
this model on eBay

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...sPageName=WDVW

I was told the device was a few years old and that it hadn't been used for a
while. Anyway when I got the HiFi it worked
a treat and has done for 3 weeks until yesterday. I was playing one of many
of my CD-R compilation cd and the unit started
skipping. When I took the CD out and re-insterted it...the screen just read
'no-disc' I tried 4 or 5 CD-R's and CD's all with no
luck. I then tried another CD-R and it worked! It just played the first
track though

Now my question is....'is the device broken?' When you insert a CD you hear
it spinning up but it doesn't seem to scan for tracks
properly. So before I go shouting at a friend what can I do? Do you think it
just needs a good CD lens cleaner?

I have a big subwoofer besides the hi-fi...may this have caused damage?

Just as a note...the HiFi itself still works fine(radio,tape,etc)

Please help!

Have you tried it with original CD's not CD-R's? Your post only talks
about CD-Rs and that may be the cause of your problems. Let us know
what you find.
