Jolida JD 100a - help w/Buzz when using headphones


I recently purchased the Jolida JD 100a and discovered that the CD transport mechanism, particularly when it spins the CD, is audible as a "buzz" in my headphones (Sennheiser 580s). It is also audible from the player itself. Is this normal? Or is this a defective player and/or correctable with lubricating the mechanism? Help.

Thanks for the input. I guess the sound of the CD spinning comes across as a "buzz" in the headphones (perhaps buzz is not the best word to describe it). I also hear the CD spinning inside the player but, the noise is continuous whilst the disk is spinning and only stops when I hit the "stop button and the disk stops spinning. It isn't really that loud but I can hear it from across the room, that gentle whirring noise inside the player. I never had this with my old Yamaha player and didn't expect it with a reference player like the Jolida. I did get it used and have contacted the seller. I expect I will get better info on the problem from Audiogon.
Hi,

I never used headphones with JD-100 but I never heard any sound from my JD-100 through speakers, which I am using for last 6 months.

Thanks,

Try posting this question at www.head-fi.org , it's a site for those who are really into headphones. I'm sure that someone there might have an answer, or some other input, for you.
I listen to my Grado 60's directly through modded Jolida 100. Get serious pops when I plug phones into Jolida already on but no buzzing ever whether through phones or speakers. Sound from this combo is pretty interesting - the ultimate laid back - at times slow sounding - warm tube sound that is totally different from how the player sounds through Musical Fidelity 3.2 amp and Paradigm speakers. I stayed away from Senn's because I heard feedback on head-fi that they might be hard for the Jolida to drive by itself. No ideas re buzzing though.
