My Sony CDX-C7050X is really acting up. Most of the time, it won't play my CDs, it'll give me an "ERROR" message. When it does play, it skip "like a school girl." It can't get through one track, even when standing still. I tried a Lens cleaner, it seemed to help a little for a short while, but now it's bad again. I'm going to try e-mail sony, but I doubt that will get anythign done. I was wondering if anyone had a solution for this. Also, i was thinking, I could get a CD Changer to hook up to the HU. Does anyone have a Sony CD Changer? Does it skip?

I know I shouldn't have gotten a Sony, but that was back when I just got the car and didn't know anything. I had always thought of Sony being a decent brand to get, but that doesn't seem to be so for their car audio. Thanks for any help [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]

how long have you owned your deck? it might be covered under warranty?

if one sony product fails, why would you get another one? not flaming, but thats just my opinion... i never liked sony... for the price of a changer you could get a new HU

I think i can get a changer for about ~150. If i get another CD player, it'll probably be an MP3 player, so that would atleast run me about 300. I dont' really want to get a regular CD player.

JVC KD-SH 909 ... ive had mine for almost a year and i like it... 288 on autotoys.com ... an mp3 changer is also decently expensive... you buy what you like, but i dont trust sony... all the installs i do with sony products i always warn people against it...

I e-mailed Sony with a question once and since they have such a big demand of questions to answer it took them a month to e-mail me back. My cd player skips too, but only over bumps at around 20 mph. Odd that the AUX input NEVER skips....must be a cd player problem.

sonys are known to have issused with skipping. You'd be amazed how many of those things get returned...

Actually, no. You can get a Pioneer Premier DEH-P740MP at $250 and maybe less if you look at the other auctions. Gotta love Ebay stores. They're quite nice decks. I plan on getting mine within a week or so. I've had my eye on them for quite sometime, just a matter of time and money.
