RE: MD: MXD-D3 Read Errors

  After I read your post, I grabbed a handful of MDs which were recorded
on various machines, and as far back as May of 1993. They all worked just
fine. It sounds to me like you probably have a defective unit.(Jim)

Thanks for your reply, Jim.  You must be right, because the unit I exchanged
it with, works just fine.  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!

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!

After I read your post, I grabbed a handful of MDs which were recorded
on various machines, and as far back as May of 1993. They all worked
just fine. It sounds to me like you probably have a defective unit.

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". 

Has anyone else experienced the same problem with his MXD-D3?.
