Default Stock CD Unit in 98 Accord Coupe plays some CDRS, but not all...


Can anyone tell me out there if they have had any experience playing
burnt Cds in the stock player in the 98 vintage of Accords?

Mine plays store bought cds perfectly well. With burnt CDs it is a
different matter. It will play some right away, others it will play if you
leave them in long enough...one I forgot about, left it in the player and
15 minutes later it finally played.

I realize that this is a compatibility issue. I just wonder if anyone can
define exactly what these issues are?

Has anyone else had difficulty with their CD player?

Sure.

It is exactly about a buuuunch of variables, which make it un-exact. :-)

Media manufacturer
Media quality
Media type
Media standards deviation
Burner manufacturer
Burner quality
Burner type
Burner standards deviation
Reader manufacturer
Reader quality
Reader type
Reader standards deviation

Most consumer readers are designed to read the tighter-spec'd
store-bought commercially produced media. Many aftermarket
units deal with the broad-spectrum of other CD issues quite well.

Its not difficulty if your unit wasn't specifically designed to operate
under such a broad array of differences. To bend the capability of
your stock unit some, try using very high quality media. You might
need to try various brands, as well, until you locate some that your
unit is "happy" (compatible) with.

This is a known issue. My 99 Accord has the same trouble with CDRs. I
tried to buy different brand media, but kind of gave up. I know
someone with 98 Accord and their radio plays all CDs fine. It is a hit
or miss situation. After a lot of digging on the google I found that
blue dye cd-r's may work better, I will try next time I need cdrs...
