zumbini 6,150 Posted February 29, 2016 Posted February 29, 2016 I have an old Denon DCM-35 CDC that was also noisy. A little grease on the gears helped quite a bit.
bluefan 31 Posted February 29, 2016 Author Posted February 29, 2016 Yep... gonna try graphite with MOLYBDENUM as suggested in another posting on the issue.. hopefully that helps... It's weird though.. sometimes the CD roulette is quite in operation.. other times it sounds like shifting gears without using a clutch.. ugly sound
aslan7 954 Posted March 1, 2016 Posted March 1, 2016 Ah yes bluefan. Same thing happened to me with an older Sony ES carousel player. Unfortunately I think it's a common occurrence with these types of players. "If u can't find em, grind em"
bluefan 31 Posted March 24, 2016 Author Posted March 24, 2016 So for the 390t CD player, I took it apart and removed all the old grease and replaced. The sidewinder gear for the turntable was in fine shape but the noise it makes still remains as noted by another OP after he did the same clean up some time ago. I guess that I will just live with it. I really like the sound with the tube buffer. Onto the TFM-35... replaced all the caps and a couple toasty resistors. Sounds very good.. it had a bit of noise in the top end but that has all but vanished. Very happy with the outcome. CT-3... it started powering off/on so I went through it...just re-flowed the boards and it seems to be working fine now. Oh... last but not least... I will be receiving a new/used C1 today. What is the definition of addiction? How did I get here?
