CD Player issue?

Older CD players generally aren’t able to read CD-R’s.

EDIT - I should say it's a crap shoot really.

The laser needs to be glued back in!   I had the same problem with my Pioneer PD65. Fitting it back in without glueing is going to cause it to vibrate and fall out again.

Thank you for your answer. So you mean that you also had this problem with a Pioneer CD player not reading CD-Rs that were burned on a computer?

So gluing the lens back in solved the problem? Well of course it did!

The PD-65 reads the disc upside down, so you have to glue the lens in place.

Currently the PD2000 LTD reads any original CD-Rs. The lens is on the bottom like a regular CD player. 

My PD65 could not read CD-R disks either before or after gluing the laser in place.  I was under the assumption that your player also had the "stable Platter".

Thank you for clarifying. I appreciate it! Guess I will have to sell it then.
