Some CD players, mostly older ones (weak lasers), have problems playing CDRs (less reflective).
Rega Apollo might be one of them. I found info about it in another Audiogon thread:
"In John Atkinson's recent testing of a Rega Apollo CD player he noted difficulties playing CD-R's. Have Rega Apollo owner's experienced similar difficulties? There are other operational difficulties noted in an earlier Audiogon posting. Is this a flawed design? Have the problems been corrected? An attempt to get an answer from the U.S. distributor went unanswered."
