Clarion 6 disk changer - CD-R

Hi

My 2000 206xs has the Clarion 6 disk changer in the boot - I use a lot
of cd-r's and it does not seem to like them. I use 80min TDK disks tht
play fine everywhere apart from in this changer. Origional CD's play fine.

Anyone know if there are issues with these changers and cd-r's or a
workaround?

thanks

 

I have a clarion 6 disk chager in my boot of my 2000 406 it plays memorex
700MB 80min 52X CD-r perfectly. I burn't them using a sony DVD-RW but other
drives have been as good.

Regards

I have found that disks burnt at a slower speed are more reliable.

 

thanks - will try a slow burn'd disk to see if that works

 

Try a different brand of discs burnt in a different burner. If the CD pickup
is particularly shite, then they can be fussy with differing CDRs (the
original Sony Playstation drive springs to mind, but that was very easily
adjusted by twiddling the pot on the top).

 

I am a audio technician and this query is fairly common with any CD player
car or home. Its normally caused by the CD pickup not reading the data
optically from the disc surface. When these CDR`s are burnt at a too higher
speed the depth or level is reduced.

If the recording is made approx 8X or slower if possible. it normally
produces a more defined track burn depending on the grade of blank disc.
Other problems also cause this ie. a slightly dusty pickup lens, cleaning
would should resolve this. Pickups do reduce in output with use and age
causing them to become "fussy and slow" about reading even new commercial
cd`s. Replacement the only option
