RE: CD-R's in CD PLAYERS!
It's cause 1# the cd player isn't that good and 2# the cd-r's that your burnin are shit quality, so....
Get Acer's!!!!! They worked the best for me, i've tried them on every shitty cd player pretty much and they worked in all of them, this includes Car Cd players too.
Acer CD-R80... try those out.

ok heres the deal some cheaper cd players use cheap lasers that are not very bright ,when you burn a cd the info is not as heavily burned into the foil like a production cd so the cheap cd players have problems focusing on the info, the only way to fix the problem is to either increase the laser output or overburn your cds, and to tell you the truth overburning is not garanteed to work, but turning up the lasers power will,i have done this hundreds of times and it always works

You know,
I've burned hundreds of CD's on my Yamaha 6x burner at 6x and have not had any problems reading them in my CD players (Various ones, Discman, CD changer, home stereo)....I use the Imation 80 minute CD's and they are fairly inexpensive and work well. However, certain friends who have older cd players have a lot of trouble reading them. Same goes for those who have cheaper CD players....but 95% of modern (less than 2 years old) CD players have had any problems playing any of the CD's that I've burned...
However...the burned CD's seem to be more susceptible to skipping under heavy shock loads (i.e. Jogging with discman) than original CD's...but I guess you can't have it all, can you?
Cheers!

120V?? that's gonna melt it! lol. your outlet provides 120V. the adapter acts as the transformer to reduce the voltage. hehe.
