i think it is very important to make sure the disc is balanced and your CD spinner is as level as possible. Also, be sure to put some weight on the top plate to lessen any vibration while listening. Many CD players are made from thin materials and “ring like a bell” when you tap on them. SimAudio makes a great product. ** Good luck and happy Listening 👂🎶
