http://161.58.228.32/alpine_mda-w890...it-display.jpg
this is the one i have got..
i dont noe if it needs a service or a lens clean
MD and radio works.. originals work.. except burnt!!!
Ken
please help someone!!
did you purchase it new or second hand?
are you sure the burnt CD's your trying work in other stereo's / media ?
Moved to A/V.
Some HU's don't read CD-R's at all. I'm really surprised an Alpine HU doesn't!
i noe.. this thing cost's 1.4k brand new..
original reads well..
stuck in my other cd's i play on my pioneer.. just sits there on idle..
is there a place i could bring to get it checked or serviced???
ken
what brand of CD-R's are you using.... I have found that some brands do not work in my Kenwood unit :?
sits stupid tho..
i used sony..TDK...
EMTEC...
no luck at all...
kinda really upsets me..
i need to service this thing i think..
or get it cheacked.. cause most people use burnt cd's on it!
:(
ken
Have you posted on auscaraudio yet? It's wierd it doesn't play CD-R's. :?
Yeh, have you tried a friend's CD-Rs?
Maybe it is your burning software?
Which model is this?
Alpine MDA-W890E
everything works fine..
except for dam Burnt copys

This is strange, a good H/U doesn't play CD-R's
You should check your manual or box because it usually says on there what they play!
PM FHRX, he can help you!
What CD format are you burning?
Are you copying music cds straight off , Cause new cds arent as easy to copy you need certain programs...
Or are you burning them off from mp3s if so you might of not set options to close the cd and set it to no multisession....
take it back to where u bought dude. thats not rite. my friend just bought a alpine HU and it plays everything
Yeah.. i've got an apline HU and it plays everything / every type of cd fine.Quote:

i agree with ah789454, take it back.. that's not right..
I am pretty sure I saw that unit for sale on CAA. IT is an older unit if I remember correctly, and it is well known that with some older decks even made by reputable companies like Alpine etc do not read cd-r's or if they do, they are VERY fussy about burn speed media etc. The honda cd player supplied in my parents CR-V is VERY VERY fussy and most of the time I just give up and stick an original in.
my friend has the same unit, burnt cds work tho... he has a alpine 6 disc stacker after the in unit one broke lol
yeh.. someone suggested me to get a alpine cd stacker..
which will play burnt cd's!!
wonder if anyone got one for sale??
*Sighs*
