Hi Herman,

I've been using Sony CD and MD changers for some time... both 6 and 10
disk models. I've seen the jamming problem a few times, but I've always
been able to fix the problem with a reset.

Jamming is going to be more common for a changer than a single disk
head unit... more mechanical stuff in a constantly moving and shaking
car will always be less reliable than a simpler mechanism in the same
environment. That being said, I don't think it's "common" for changers
to be jamming constantly. If that were the case, manufacturers would
have stopped making them a long time ago to avoid the warranty claims.

Mr. Shopkeeper really wants you to buy a new head unit to use with your
changer...

smiles,
Jamie

First of all, I like to ask if disk jammed and reset problem common to most
CD changers.

When I ask the shop keeper where I bought the changer, he says it is
a common problem for CD changers, and he actually advise customers against
getting CD changers, and buy front loading CD player.

Is the shop keeper right, that jamming up is a common problem for CD
changers, or is it my CD receiver that has the problem? I don't want to
spend the money to have the CD changer fixed but finding it jammed again a
week later. If so, I would rather get a front load CD player instead.
