Just gone out and checked mine with CDRW and it worked fine - maybe the CD is corrupt ?
If you are just using a CDR(W) that is a just a burn of a music CD it should work fine, but I'm not sure the A10 can play MP3, WMA or anything clever like that ?
Hey you can buy the laser online, there bit fiddly to fit but otherwise ok. no adjustments are needed, should just work.
these units do play CDRs but are not designed to do so. playing CDRs will use more laser power, as the way CDRs and off The Shelf discs are made are totally different. you get more reflection from Brought Cd than you do with a CDR therefore the laser does not strain as much when reading the Cd.
I have checked this on the eye Patten on my oscilloscope, and the CDR gave out about half the eye Patten as the shop brought Cd.
so if you’re playing CDRs please bare this in mind.

hello,
you can use Audio CD (only CDR, not CDRW) from Sony, you must burn it with Nero as Audio CD and very slow, speed 1x or 2x than it must be work.:bannana:
