I burn a lot of cd-rs for the car. my head unit (blaupunkt) heats up during use and often makes my cd-rs unreadable halfway through. I believe instability of cd-rs are to blame. if you examine them, they are thinner than normal cds. the maxells i've used lately seem to have a half-life of only a few weeks of car use, the philips cd-rs seem to fare better. i have to burn new discs every month or so...btw, i also have a cec tl-1x and it plays 'new' cd-rs just fine--as long as they're less than a few weeks old.
CD-R's suddenly "unreadable".
I've been listening to CD-r's on my CEC TL-1X without any problems for the past several years. Within the past few weeks the same CD-R's have become unreadable on this transport. Ocassionally, if I start the CD on a later track, say track 10, and work my way back to track 1 with the remote, it will read and continue to play.
The manufacturer of the CD-R's are from many sources including Sony, Marantz, IBM, etc.
I checked the laser for dust and debris and all seems OK.
Any Suggestions??
