It's possible that your old player was broke and the new player did
sound
better. Or not.

Hmmmm.../funny to hear that CD players can be "broke" in a way that
doing some dampening can help them out.

Now THAT'S science at its best!

Or not.

What I was speaking of is a player that was broken and had marginal
tracking. In that case a band aid might help it out.
