burns3016 Posted October 7, 2005 Report Share Posted October 7, 2005 Can anyone offer any help? My Sony MZ R500 MD Unit has lately started playing up. It appears to record fine in any mode ie. standard, LP2 or LP4 ... but on playback, about halfway through the disc, the counter will stop moving foward, the indicator will show that the disc is spinning, there is NO sound - basically it just won't move foward. Has anyone encountered this problem before ? Is it serious ? I've tried a lens cleaning unit .... But nothing! .... any help would be appreciated.

Pyka Posted February 19, 2006 Report Share Posted February 19, 2006 Once this happened to me... But this problem is structural. I've send it to the guarantee and it camed back as new!!Bye Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pauljones52 Posted February 19, 2006 Report Share Posted February 19, 2006 Sounds like the recording head is gone/on the way out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KrazyIvan Posted February 20, 2006 Report Share Posted February 20, 2006 It could be the disc but if it does it on other discs then it is probably the record head. I had an R500 that I ended up selling as a player because of this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
