Just want to play a CD. Is this unit defective? I push the play/pause button. CD spins and the display shows 3 dashes and then "no". CD never plays.

To Camilla: I also noticed when I push the play/pause button it shows "no usb". So I push the play/pause button again and the same thing happens. Then I pushed the Mode button that didn't seem to help either. I also noticed it does not respond immediately when you press any button. When I open and close the CD holder it goes back to square one. So now I just keep pushing the play/pause button and sometimes it responds. I don't like this at all. When you read the instructions they are very confusing. I am thinking about returning mine. Hope this helps you decide if you want to keep it.

Is the cd in place? You might need to push down on the cd a little, until it clicks into place. If that doesn't work, it sounds like it might be defective.

Mine seems to do the same thing. I called the number on the Instruction booklet, the person I talked to could not help but unsuccessfully tried to reach their tech support. They never called me back. I really like the player- it is just what I was looking for. I will return the unit as I also think it is defective. Cannot decide whether to ask for a replacement, or just get my money back.

Unfortunately, I'm not a good contact for this player as mine only worked for about 1/2 of a CD. Hope you have better luck should you decide to buy!

That's odd- I have this same computer (Amazon sent me an email to answer this for you because of it) and I never hear a sound from it. My suggestion would be that if you haven't already, check your CD player for anything- it likes to run disks even when they are not playing. Otherwise that sounds kind of abnormal. Best of luck!

Clean your CD from center out to edge, get a laser disc cleaner, check volume knob, function should be set at media you're playing, check power cord, request Amazon to send you a replacement. My unit plays really nice. I wish you a positive outcome.

No, it does not play cd's. just plays its own music when you push the buttons. It plays quite a few different songs.

Most of mine are old, too, and they play fine. I suppose that some home-recorded CDs might not play, but I have only played commercially-recorded ones.

Never got that problem; However, here is part of what I experienced:"Needed a BACK-UP PLAYER so ordered this unit. When I started playing CD-G's I started getting extraneous images (JUNK)and residue along with the text. I'm in the process of trying to make sure it's not my CD-G's causing the problem before I ask to return the VOCOPRO DVX-890K DVD Karaoke Player . Played on primary player (VocoPro DVG 888KII)and issue disappeared. Returned and had a replacement (same type machine) sent. Received and had the same problem...Bob

Do you know if this unit plays cd, cd-r. cd-rw? I have made most of my cd's and need a player that will play all them. Also, do I need to buy anything else other than this CS-325 to play my cd's? Thanks for your help.

Sorry, can't help with your question. It didn't work - right out of the box - with any CD (store-bought or burned) - - - so I immediately returned it.

I've noticed this happening to mine as well. With mine getting older and because I use it so often, there are many times where the CD player won't work properly. The same thing happened to my old CD player. I don't think there's anything you can do to fix it or the radio other than let it rest. Might need to get a new one.

I had trouble getting mine to go too but opened door and made sure all the cd 's were in right and found out you have to push the "play" button down on the bottom , then it worked. I may have just got lucky. I still do not have the radio set up though.

No CD player these days start instantly. Give it 4-5 seconds to read the disc.It says it plays MP3 material, even though I did not test it personally.I own this CD player, after sending back another brand/model, that got rave reviews, but did not play all my CD-Rs recorded on PC.This Tascam plays that CD-R. And it also sounds great.If you want a simple CD player that does the job without glitches, with a natural sound, this is one I would highly recommend.

We bought two of these and could not get the CD player to work on either one of them. They made a really loud grinding noise or would just plain skip or not play the CD's. If we put the CD's in another player they would work fine. I recommend another player. Go to Walmart - they have them in their audio section usually cheaper to.

Yes, just play it two to three times first and then play your cd if it skips clean it again a couple of times. Depending how dirty... You may have to clean it ten times but clean it after playing your music cd. The first few days after playing your cd as soon as your cd skips clean it again. Might take three days but then it works again for a while. I haven't used it again now for a couple of months but it took me a week of cleaning every few times.

Mine just quite playing. Stops in the middle of a song so it is not the CD switch. Very disappointed. Tried different CD's with the same result.

There is most likely a problem with your radio. I own the same one and all my CDs work perfectly the only time I may have this problem is if the cd is scratched. So, befor buying a new radio check the condition of the cd your playing. If the problem continues id just buy a new one. Wish you luck
