My MXD-D3 plays discs from my other players (JA-50ES, JA-20ES, JB-930, JB-920, JE-630, etc.) Just fine. I'd take your MXD-D3 back for (yet another) relpacement.

We had a really bad shipment of MXD-D3's that all had visible signs of mishandling, so the optical pickup must have been knocked off spec. I really love the D3. It's incredible, and I find that the new-style remote with three letters on each button, isn't really too hard to use. The 4x recording more than makes up for the increased time in titling! Daryl P.S. I'm going to check out the Wal-marts in my area to see if any have that Sanyo deck. My brother would love to have an MD deck in his car! - To stop getting this list send a message containing just the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

MD: MXD-D3 Read Errors
I had my MDS-JE510 swapped out for an MXD-D3 today because Best Buy's service centre decided to junk out the JE510, which was in service for the third time. Although I have zero confidence in Sony products these days, I figured that my MD problems would at least be done with for the foreseeable future. Boy, was I wrong! When I hooked my new deck up, I was disappointed to find that it would not play *any* MD's -- that's right -- not *any*. Every MD I insert produces the same message: "Read Error; C-13". C-13 is Sony's new MD diagnostic code meaning that the disc could not read the TOC of the MD properly. The manual makes mention that moisture that causes the development of condensation on the lens, could cause problems such as that, and that in such a case, one should let it warm up for about an hour (page 3) or several hours (page 37). Incidentally, the CD player works just fine. Well, it's been well over an hour, and I see no improvement.. Has anyone else experienced the same problem with his MXD-D3?. I hope that I would not have to return it, because I'm getting terribly frustrated with Sony. I don't want to ever buy another crappy Sony product AGAIN!!
