- >What about near-new, unscratched CDs which skip?

- On my new NAD 505 changer, I've noticed random CD skipping of about a second,
- (e.g., if the track being played is at time 01:00 (mm:ss), it'll suddenly
- jump to 01:02) at every couple of CDs, though sometimes it doesn't skip at
- all for the whole duration of the disc(s) being played.
-
- Although it's nothing serious, when the skipping happens a little more
- frequently during the play of a single track (and that is rare though),
- it gets to be quite noticeable and uncomfortable.
-
- When the same CDs were played on my older Sony D303 portable, I never heard
- them skip (except when the 303 was being bounced around while walking with
- it on my side).
-
- Maybe it has something to do with the moon being in the right phase, and
- the planets being aligned in synchronous harmony with one another...
