Only some CD's play in Technics SL-P212.

[Russell Griffiths]

Greetings Group.
Technics SL-P212 CD player.

CD player will play a lot of discs fine, but others just
spin at a high speed and will not play at all.

Sometimes the total time of the disc shows in the display,
but it will not play.

The owner seems to think the discs that play are American made,
and Australian made discs do not.

I have tried cleaning the laser.

Any suggestions.

Thanks,
Russell Griffiths.

I would suspect laser. see if there is laser current adjustments. This may
help. Apart from that -- new laser is needed.

Some players are just rubbish and just will not play some Australian
made (and obviously sub standard) cd's.

They will do just as you say - spin like crazy and then just fail.

The player should be returned for a refund if possible as its not fit
for the intended purpose of playing CD's. If its too old for that
then all he can probably do is throw it in the garbage.

World's greatest beer songs # 2 (2 cd set) are classic examples of
this and will exhibit this problem in such players.

Problem fixed.

All I needed to do was adjust VR106 (TR/B) to fix the problem.

The player will now play all cd's.

Thanks for replys.
