CD player plays some CDs, not others.


I need a little advice here. My Denon player (8 years old) will play most CDs just fine, but now and then certain CDs, which played just fine before, will no longer play. The display reads Track 01, and that is all. I can skip to track 02 but it still will not play. If I put in another CD, it will play. Then if I go back to the other CD, it will not read the CD. These are CDs that will play in my Sony Walkman, but for some reason my Denon is not able to read them anymore. They are in good shape, clean, and had played in the past. Is the laser shot?? Need a new player?? ALong those lines, what quality can I get in the $500-$600 range, single play or changer. I like Denon, but will try any other recommended to me. Thanks in advance. Al on Cape Cod

Try a product such as Allsop carbonedge cd driveclean to clean your lazer lens.Even if this doesn,t cure your problem it's still good to use.A product called SonicBlast CD Sound Enhancer from 303 Products Inc. Helps Correct skipping and improves sound.If you truly enjoy good sound consider auditioning some new players against yours.There are some exceptional units within $400.One is a H and K FL8550 carousel that can be had for $349.Check reviews at Audio Review site.Also talk to repairmen at different authorized Denon repair centers about your problem.
