MD: MZ-R50 Problems.

1999-08-21 Thread ollee


I've had my R50 since December, and since then have used it pretty heavily
(about 3-4 hours a day). I don't keep my discs in cases, but haven't really
had any problems with my unit until recently.

When recording, it will insert bits of crackly noise into the recording.
This is happening with new discs, and I even had a Sony ES disc fail after
about a day of use a week or so ago.

Should I try a lense cleaner disc? Does anyone have any other suggestions
of what I could do for it?

Also, the headphone jack, in the last two days has become very sensitive,
and I almost have to hold the plug into position on the jack to get both
audio channels. Anyone have any ideas about this?

Thanks.

Ollee.

MD: Faulty Discs

1999-08-02 Thread ollee


I've recently had two discs (one black Sony, another coloured TDK) which
have failed. The TDK is slow reading, and when it does finally play back
skips like a scratched CD and the Sony just says "Disc Error" when I insert
it. The TDK was pretty old and had been knocked around a bit, so I guess
problems are to be expcted, but the Sony was almost brand new. I'd bought
it to record a Knievel show about a week before it started to error. There
was a 'short' in the soundboard and the recording didn't work out, which is
just as well, as it was a great show and I'd be SO pissed if a faulty disc
caused me to lose it!

Is there any way I can get a replacement disc, for at least the Sony? Is
there a returns department or something?
