| I've got an Alpine unit with 6CD Autochanger in the boot. It replaced the
standard Philips cassette radio that came with the Calibra as standard. If
you like, I can post more details here tomorrow.

2240.3 | Yes please... | KERNEL::HANNANS | | Thu Mar 17 1994 20:42 | 9 |
| That would be great cheers,
Alpines are expensive aren't they?
Also does it 'jump' when you go over any bumps?.., as I really want to
find a jump free car cd palyer if thats possible, well, one that can
afford ( I work for dec alas!!)

| Go for a head unit/autochanger combo from any of the top companys e.g. Alpine,
Kenwood, Sony, Panasonic and you can't go wrong. Expect to pay around 500 excl
fitting.
Your last unit was a in dash CD ? These do tend to be deeper than traditional
cass/radio. Stick to a cass head unit with CD autochanger and you have a choice
what format you can play (also cheaper and should fit).

2240.6 | Alpine maybe? | KERNEL::HANNANS | | Wed Mar 23 1994 14:14 | 8 |
| Thanks for the info so far, Keep it coming..
I am definatly going for a rad/cass head unit and a 6 or 10 disk
autochanger.. I've read good reports about the Alpine systems, but I
want a system that won't jump if I hit bumps..( I hate my music
skipping :-) )

2240.7 | | RIOT01::SUMMERFIELD | Information Unclassified Road | Wed Mar 23 1994 14:46 | 5 |
| I'm well pleased with the Alpine System. Solid as a rock. Providing nothing
hits the autochanger in the boot, it doesn't skip even on the roughest of
surfaces.
Clive
|
2240.8 | | WOTVAX::HARRISC | Put that chicken down madam | Wed Mar 23 1994 18:05 | 8 |
| Keep to the good makes and skipping won't be a problem. You get what you pay for!
I used to have my Panasonic 12 disc autochanger in a Astra GTE (hard suspension)
even then it would only skip over big bumps at speed etc. (Its also down to how
and where the changer is installed)

2240.11 | Try a Pioneer | SEDSWS::OXFORD | Jetskiers do it on the swell | Fri Mar 25 1994 15:35 | 15 |
| Dave,
I've got a good (imo) setup in Renault 19.
Its a Pioneer 8300 RDS head unit with a CDXM6 autochanger under the
passenger seat. I did have an older autochanger (CDXM30) in the boot
but i recently had a shunt up the rear (painfull) and it got destroyed
so i aquired a new out the insurance company.
The old unit used to jump a bit over large bumps but this new has'nt
jumped since i've had it (about 6 weeks).
The autochanger comes in at about #300 or a little less and it depends
on which head unit you want as to how much the whole package would cost
but i can certainly reccomend the Pioneer.

2240.12 | Alpines new cd autochanger | KERNEL::HANNANS | | Mon Mar 28 1994 17:27 | 15 |

Hi,
I went to the local car hifi centre and had a long chat with the
guys there.. the general feeling is that Alpine have the edge on sound
quality ( the car hifi mags say this too). Also Alpine had a new 6 CD
autochanger out called the 5960, it's the smallest on the market , and
it looks a sexy little number too!!
But has anyone read any reviews or heard any stories about it as I'm
really tempted!!.. It must be good as the guy's in this shop said and
I quote " if it jumps or you don't like it, bring it back and we'll
exchange it or give you your wedge back!".
Steve
|
2240.13 | The choice is yours ! | SEDSWS::OXFORD | Jetskiers do it on the swell | Mon Mar 28 1994 20:46 | 15 |
| Basically you pay your money and take your choice.
The new Alpine probably is very good, but so are most other makes,
and i very much doubt that while you are driving around in your car,
which is a relatively noisey place to play music, you could tell the
difference between two manufacturers c.d. players, apart from one might
jump and the other might not. A friend of mine has an Alpine setup and
i have the Pioneer i mentioned earlier, and the opinions are that mine
sounds better, i personally think it sounds the mutts nuts, but it is
probably more down to the amps and speakers i've got rather than the
c.d. player.
Whatever you get it wont be long before you want either, louder,
bassier, more treble, or something else as you get used to the
sound, basically, welcome to the money pit club.

| Spot on note Nick.
Once there's a decent tape deck or a CD changer in there, it's all down to
reasonable external amps and decent MDF speaker door rebuilds!
This is why reputable installer's systems knock the spots of quick
installation places.

2240.16 | Alpine it was!! | KERNEL::HANNANS | | Tue Apr 05 1994 19:23 | 29 |
|
Well, I did it!!.. I emptied the piggy bank and bought an Alpine set
up.. The 514 LS and the 5960 6 cd auto changer, which are just hitting
the dealers.. The CD autochanger is really small compared with the
majority, smaller that the 5952Z , which was small anyway.
I installed the CD changer in the glove box, as I can lock it, which
still left room underneath for bits and pieces.. ( Golf MK3 Gti )
It's brilliant.. I tried to make it jump by driving over sleeping
policeman, pot holes, dirt tracks etc.. but not a skip in sight!!
The CD changer is well designed, as it doesn't take the cd out of the
cartridge, well not all the way, just half way out.. and they have
saved space on the gaps around the mech making the whole unit a lot
smaller.
The only thing I'm not impressed with is the quality of the speakers in
the golf.. They are crap with a capital C!!.. So once I've paid this
off, I'm investing in some decent speakers.
If anyone wants a demo, let me know.. :-)

| Congrats! I too have an Alpine 6 CD shuttle, 7514L head units, silly amps & speakers & gubbins, etc.
Firstly, can I reassure you - you can get rid of them tapes now, they won't get much use.
Secondly, yup - you shall not have any problems with jumping. I have a kit car with *very* hard suspension and
I can only remember it jumping once in its life when I crashed into a pot hole I hadn't seen, incidently
nearly wrecking my ****ing suspension in the process (..we pay our road tax and we get ...blah blah!..).
Thirdly, I did an installation in a friends Golf. While replacement speakers for the standard sited front speaker
are available, they are a complete pain in the backside to work with, and do not really support a decent size to
get good acoustic performance from... I take it you share the same speaker locations, in the top of the dash
in each corner?
So, I can just suggest what you might like to consider... it's not the daftest stereo around, but it's sensible,
not 'over-bassed' (if such a word exists!) and relatively speaking, inexpensive.
It simply consisted of a Pioneer 4x70w amp (any make will do ofcourse, preferably Alpine to match your system)
along with some 6.5" 2-way drivers in the door panels (mounted into a chipboard base, NOT the door) and some
monster 150w 3-ways simply located in the rear parcel shelf. No crossovers, no subs. The amp went under the
passenger seat.
Okay so it won't get far in a sound off, but then again if you are confident enough to do the work yourself (it
really isn't that hard) you'll end up spending around 500 pound all in all. And you can always slam in a bass box
and component speakers at a later date!
Were you thinking of spending this much dosh to overcome the squeeks and rattles?!

2240.25 | CD Changer Skip Trouble | CHEFS::TAFF::Wob | Rob Screene | Fri Jul 28 1995 16:48 | 36 |
| Anyone's cd players getting on a bit seen this?
I would appreciate any help on this annoying problem.
I have a Denon 707R first gen RDS radio/cassette, with it's partnering
10-disc cd changer DCC-1570.
It has had about 2x30mins usage 6 days a week over it 4 year life. Since
installing it in my new car, the thing skips terribly.
Background:
Before, it was installed vertically in the rear side panel of a little
mk1 VW Golf GTI with hard riding gas suspension, it would skip say 3
times in a 20 minute journey. It would also skip if you slammed the
door when stationary. Not brilliant but tolerable considering.
I used the changer and radio cassette off a 12v supply in the house
for months, with the changer on it's side without a single skip.
Last night, after connecting the thing up in the new car, it skipped
(randonly around once every 15 seconds). This was in a stationary
car! It seems to skip worse on the upper and lower numbered disc
slots, it may be less when playing the middle slots.
It doesn't seem very related to vehicle speed or inclines; skips going
downhill at 20mph as it does going flat at 80mph.
It is installed flat under the drivers seat, which just clears the top
of the unit, it doesn't appear to be effected by someone sitting in
the seat or not.
Many thanks,
Robert.

2240.26 | Wot about a good clean? Cobwebs? | CHEFS::BARRON_D | | Fri Jul 28 1995 17:06 | 22 |
| Robert
Have you ever cleaned it. By "it" I mean the laser lens.
You can buy one these fancy CD disks with a set of spiraling brushes
on the disk surface. While it plays some naff muzac the lens gets
a polish. The altenate is to strip in down and give the lens a gentle
wipe with a soft piece of cloth, just damp with some sort of alcohol,
Isopropryl, Vodka (Smirnoff Blue 50% Export's good) etc.
What about the CD's themself, everyone you got or just a few? New/old
ones? A clean from time to time is will do no harm if done gently and
has resolved a few problems for me.
I wash mine in tepid water with a touch of good quality washing up liquid.
Then rinse under the tap and dry off with a soft cloth. Then again a
scratch on the surface is a killer if its deep enough.

| My experience of my Sony CD player is that it plays better mounted
horizontally (ooh,err,missus,etc...).
Also, I have noticed that if a CD is prone to skipping it is generally
not the first or second track but the tracks towards the end of the CD.
This maybe because the CD plays from the centre outwards and there is
more vibration on the outward edge due to a badly balanced CD player
or CD itself. Not sure what you can do about it though.
I'd go for the lens cleaner as the most economical way to start.
Cheers,
Barry.
PS. My in-car CD refuses to play any of Eric Clapton's latest but the
CD in the house will play it with no complaints. Perhaps in-car
players have in-built "musical taste" chips....

| Thanks Barry,
The local dealer said that the changer mechanism is of Sony origin, a few
years ago they were the oem supplier for a great many brands; Kenwood,
Denon and others. If yours is of same vintage, we may be talking about the
same box.
I followed Dave's advice again last night and was more bold in cleaning the
laser optic with a cotton bud with a little Isopropryl, which ironically
came with my Allsop3 magnetic tape head cleaner.
I deliberately did not clean the rogue discs so I would know what fixed it
if it did. On replacing the changer and firing it up, I listened to at
least one whole track on all ten discs. I listened to at least a minute of
every track on the rogue NewSoulRebels CD.
Not a single skip and, as described, I celebrated with a few brews.
This morning, I get in and select the above in disc 2, track 1 and again
get loads of skips!!! Aaaargh. All the other CD's seem to play fine (yes,
I was that sad git in the car park from 8:50 to 9:00).
The symptoms don't appear to be related to engine running or not. I can
only think that the fault is related to heat, as the car interior was
cooler last night???
I may try some contact cleaner on the multi-way connector at the back of
the removable stereo, perhaps that is not allowing the changer to
pull the constant current it needs to operate the disc tracking
effectively? But then, why would only a couple of discs be effected?
Time for Mr.Washing-Up tonight!
Lord help keep me sane!
Cheers,
Rob.

2240.35 | Info Requested on car CD players | IOSG::MITCHELLE | Pigs all fed and watered, and ready to fly | Wed Aug 02 1995 13:22 | 17 |
| Please can anyone advise me on a CD player -
My Mum wants to get a small CD player that she can use in a caravan - - so one
that can be plugged into 12V or 240V.
Are the ones for cars 'stand alone' or do you have to mount them as you would a
car radio?
Do they come with speakers - or do they rely on you having speakers for the
radio? - if they use radio ones, can you buy small free standing speakers which
could be mounted in a caravan?
ANy other advice? - or perhaps someone can tell me where in the Reading area I
can go to have a look for myself......

2240.37 | | TRUCKS::BEATON_S | I Just Look Innocent | Wed Aug 02 1995 16:47 | 26 |
| I used to have a Sony thing called the Car-discman which doubled as
either a portable personal stereo cd player or could be attached to a
mounting bracket and used in the car. The player was powered by a plug
that went into the cigarette lighter of the car.
The unit came with headphones (for when in personal stereo mode), the
cigarette lighter power lead, plus an audio cassette like gizmo which
you pushed into your (car) cassette player, which then made the
connection between the cd player and the car speakers. (The mounting
bracket had to be bought separately.
To be honest it was more hassle than it was worth using it in the car,
from the point of view of trailing wires, etc. and I tended to use it
more as a personal stero with the headphones.
If you want to speak to a dealer about the car-discman, then your local
Sony shop should be able to help you out.
An alternative might be to buy one o' them cd/radio/tape boogie boxes
and some rechargable batteries (and a battery charger thingy).

I don't think my Mum wants to use it in the car - but is talking about a
semi-permanent installation for the caravan - so perhaps a portable with active

the radio/cassette/kitchen-sink units :-) - I don't think she's even interested
in it for using with earphones....

CD, and less than 1" deep) and so what she thought she wanted was one of those -
until I pointed out that something had to be plugged into it to enable you to
hear anything!
It should be able to run on 12V and 240V (the caravan is wired for both)
and she doesn't really want radio or cassette facilities. Size - as mentioned
above.
Why did I ever get involved in this...... :-)

2240.42 | Autochangers | MILE::JENKINS | | Wed Aug 02 1995 18:31 | 38 |
|
re .40
Unfortunately, it's not quite as simple as that. The CD autochanger
also needs to be controlled eg play, search etc.
You may be lucky and find that your current Radio/Cassette that will
do this for you. In which case the lead from the autochanger will plug
into you car radio (at the back) and this will connect the controls
and the sound feed at the same time.
If not, you can buy autochangers with a small (flat) control panel
(on a long lead) so that you can mount the autochanger in the boot
and stick the control panel wherever you want in the front of the
car. Sony or Pioneer make these, maybe others.
I think that the usual way of getting the sound feed to the
radio/cassette is via an FM modulator (sold separately). This
converts the CD out to an FM signal just as if it had been received
over your aerial. The real aerial and 'dummy' are both fed into
the aerial socket on the back of your car radio/cassette.
Once done, you can tune the radio to the FM frequency being used by
the CD just like you would tune into any station and hey presto, sound!
These autochangers should also have a 'line out' that you could then
feed in to your dummy cassette.
Probably the best thing is to go to a good car audio dealer and find
out what they recommend. Unless you particularly want an autochanger
I suspect that you could buy a cd-tuner to replace your radio/cassette
for about the same money as an autochanger.
You might also consider just buying a new personal cd player.
Richard.

| Elaine,
Don't worry about a cd-changer, they wear out then skip a lot(!).
Why not look out for a low-end cd/radio for a car. If your mother was to
get a removable one, she would be able to buy a second mounting cage and
just remove the cd/radio from her car when she wants it in the caravan.
Also it's secure, as it can be taken in the house when the caravan is in
the back garden. It will also have powered speaker leads comming out and
be able to have speakers wired straight to it (via the mounting cage).
Cheers,
Rob.
p.s. No one got an Alsop3 CD Lens cleaner, I'll take superb care of it
honest.

re:.41
Just get a reasonably good portable CD and a set of rechargeable
batteries or a power supply for it. Don't buy any of the active
speakers available in the shops 'cos they all sound fairly crappy even
the Sony ones at about 80 quid. For about 20 quid you should be able
to get some old active Goodmans speakers - look in the free-ads or
some cheapo hifi/trading shop.

Check out any Alpine stockist, they should be your best bet; they also
do (did, a year ago) a 3-cd head-unit changer that fits into the same
space as a normal single CD or tape unit - very impressive sound for a
small box.

| re .46, .48,
would you buy any audio equipment that's had to endure an onslaught

800 pounds for a 3 cd unit???
it only costs 600 pounds for a Sony 10 disk changer..so why pay more
for less...this isn't lingerie!! :)))
- BTW same unit in Canada costs 600 dollars!! It hurts to see how much
we have to pay here!!
