NCDC Units & CD-R's
« on: 14 September 2011, 11:35:01 »
I know using a home brew CD-R will knacker the laser, is there anyway to minimise this?

I don't actually own any genuine music CD's, they are all home brew stuff from downloads.

If I burn't a disc at ultra low speed would it make any difference?

IME discs burnt with very low speeds are better tolerated by these players. Played CD-R's for several years with my past cars' CCR2006 without any issues. Then I got a new computer wich burnt CD's faster and within a few months problems started. I am not 100% sure would older CD-R's started the failure and was finished with newly burnt discs but I suspect that the writing speed does have something to do with this issue.

You can't any more ;)

The official line remains no CDRs.

You could buy up a decent stock of ccr2006 and cdc3 changers, and resolve your problem that way...

Apologies Tunnie for hi-jacking here...

If we're not to use cdr's in the CDC's, what options other than ripping out all the Bose system and using a compatible player?
I don't want to rip out the current set up either  :-/

As per every single other thread, if you have Bose, and want to keep it, FM modulator for NCDx, and cassette adapter or fm mod for ccr2006.

Thats it. The End.

Ah, is yours prefacelift with the 6 disc changer?  If so, much more resilient to CDRs - burn as slow as possible (6x is about slowest media available) and use quality media (Verbatim).  Just don't tell Dave DND ::)

Pointless me replying with anything else as you muppets obviously can`t read what I`ve written already - hey what do I care ! Your lasers, and no more replacement parts when you burn them out !

And I have nearly the entire stock of 2nd hand cdc3s, which I'm slowly destroying ;D

But the CDC2s, they seem indestructable (laser wise)?

The CD part (CDCx) is the same in NCDC units and CCRT2008?
Thanks
