Hi guys,
I have a big old Sony system, in a previous thread I mentioned that I’d always wanted one and it certainly lives up to the spec.
From the beginning I played all of my old CDs on the system no problem. I had some mixed copied discs which I’ve began to throw out because sadly this system doesn’t play them.
I had pretty much given up hope, when I bought a Bluetooth receiver but the sound came out awful because I think the solder joints on the phono connections are dry.
At the weekend for some reason I stuck a few CDs in including a Metallica album I bought but copied on to a disc. It played straight away in the system!
Sticking it in the PC only revealed it was .CDA format which Is obviously a sign I burnt it with Windows Media Player. So I need to replicate whatever settings I had for this CD. I tried a few different things on the last three blanks I had lying around. I changed the settings from fast to slowest, without gaps and turned auto volume levelling off to ensure it was as close to old school as possible. The CD’s were just standard 700mb CD-R’s and the files were MP3 to begin with. Can someone shed any light on as to why I can’t make another CD work?
