I have a 98 accord coupe EX, i have the factory cd player, and for some reason ive always had problems with playing burned cds, and before i used older memorex brand and it worked and newere ones didnt and now i got maxell and i burned a cd, doesnt seem to work it loads and loads forever. I dont know what to do this is kinda frustrating.


if anyone has any info or any solutions please let me know


thanks

 

try to get the black memorex CDs. i have a 99 coupe and they play fine. actually, those are one of the ones that always work in my cars, other burnt brands usually dont

 

yeah i noticed the black memorex at the store, but didnt get them cuz i wanted to get brands that have music cds, but if your saying those work then thats cool thats all i need to know.

cuz this really sucks,

anyone else know any other brands that work?

thanks

 

Maybe the internals of the 98 are different from the 02 model, but I just buy whatever, I've never had a problem with my player reading a burnt CD, and I actually usually just buy the cheapest ones they have.

 

get an indash mp3 player...audio cd's are old school now...waste of time and space if u ask me....i currently use a portable mp3 player with my oem stereo/cassette deck in my 96 accord.....NO complaints!! You can put 8 times as much music on one mp3 cd than u can put on an old format audio cd.

the 98 decks were made by panasonic... the 2002 version, with the 6 disc changer was made by pioneer. So the "guts" are different...

 

ah ... that's good to know. when i had my stock hu in the 2000, i had no problems playing cd-r's. i went with a Pioneer mp3 HU after owning the car for 2 months though.

 

good choice!!

how is the pioneer HU treatin ya? Is it a single or double din? Are there any double din mp3 player's out? I want one to cover that blank space in my 5th gen.

Dave

 

i haven't seen a double din mp3 player out there yet

i have one of these in my 6th gen ...



it's awesome. i dl mp3's all the time and now that i have a compatable HU, i could take full advantage of my collection. i will never need a cd changer too. i had alot of time on my hands and converted 1/2 of my mp3's to .wma ... and omg, i fit 45 albums on 1 cd. the sound quality is all there too.

i'm installing my delphi xm radio tomorrow, i'll keep everyone posted on how it goes. i've been jamming to xm all week in the house and it's great. :thumbup:

 

which indash mp3 players would you guys suggest i was looking into that but dont want anything fancy cuz iam planing to get rid of this car in about 6-8 months, so iam looking for some mp3 solutions that i can hook up on the fly and without any crazy mods.
