It was driving me nuts! Sony swapped it out for the 10 disc unit, and all was well again. Not sure on the C90, but I know that it will show song titles, but probably using the ID3v1 tags...I used the deck for a short time, and I don't think you can navigate between folders... D

    Subject: My C90 keeps heating up CDs...
    --> XDP4000X-List message posted by: "Mike Piccin" <mpiccin2@hotmail.com> I was on a long trip in my car and had my arsenal of CDs ready to listen too. So an hour and a half into the trip and my C90 starts acting up....it would get about 2/3rds the way through the CDs and start skipping and then I woudl get a "DISC ERROR". When I pulled the CD out of the deck they would be on really hot...almost too hot to touch! So I would try another CD and 20 minutes later the smae thing. Why is the C90 making the CDs so hot? Do I have to clean it (since its never been cleaned since I have owned it for the last 3 years)? Since I live it Canada do I have to send it the United States to get it fixed....and how much does it cost? Sorry about all the questions but I don;t want to lose my beloved c90/4000x combo. Thanks, Mike

    --> XDP4000X-List message posted by: Matt Dralle <dralle@matronics.com> I've noticed the same heating issues with my two C90 installations. I think the heating problem is more an indication of the lack of airflow behind the dashboard and perhaps the use of the car's heater. I would try putting some sort of muffin fan underneath the dash blowing cool air up on the C90 and see if that helps the problem. In my car installation, there is so little room behind the dash that the display on the C90 starts to change color after its been on for a while. I rarely play CDs in the C90 itself, although I do from time to time, but I've not had the problem you're describing. My CDs do come out of the C90 pretty hot, though.

    play MP3s --> XDP4000X-List message posted by: DB <dbotel6500@rogers.com> Put it this way: The Audio quality is pretty decent, considering that it was mostly used for MP3 playback. ;-) If it sounded bad or ugly, it would've got the heave-ho for me. If you want a way to contain 7 albums on a CD, it's the only way to go. For critical listening, the headunit, or the changer with the digital out would be best, but by no means is the MP3 changer a slouch in the audio department.

    Subject: Re: My C90 keeps heating up CDs...
    --> XDP4000X-List message posted by: "Mike Piccin" <mpiccin2@hotmail.com> Matt, I did notice that too once in the winter when I had my heater on, pushing air through the duct just above the deck. The heat was causing the deck to warm up. I think the heat causes the CDs to expand, in turn, it can't pick-up the laser properly. I'm wondiering why the C90 getting so hot in the first place? I don't remeber it ever being like this. Is there any way to clean the C90? ----Original Message Follows---- From: Matt Dralle <dralle@matronics.com> Subject: Re: XDP4000X-List: My C90 keeps heating up CDs... --> XDP4000X-List message posted by: Matt Dralle <dralle@matronics.com> I've noticed the same heating issues with my two C90 installations.
