Live Trax 40 In Car CD Issues

Curious if anyone is having issues with playing the Live Trax 40 Cd's in their car? I keep getting a "Check CD" message. Called Music Today, they sent a replacement, same issue, same error. I've tried other CD's and Live Trax CD's with no errors. Music Today said they tested and having no problems. Perplexed.....

    Maybe its your CD Player? Does it work digitally via USB/AUX hook up?

    Consider ripping and burning a CD-R or ripping and listening via USB even cheaper.
    No, I haven't tried the LT40 discs in the car but I had no issues with the LT40 Winter Trax CD in the car.

    I haven't had any problems with my CD player in the car because it's not 1997.

    Stick your dick into the hole in the CD. Then use that to put the CD into the CD player. Then start humping your car radio. Then enjoy your music!

    If any of this doesn't work, shoot me a PM.

    Try wiping the CD off with a microfiber cloth or soft cloth. I had the same issue when I first got It and read somewhere on here that there is some residue from the packaging. Give it a try.

    Laugh it up, but some of the best audio options coming from dealers at the moment not only include CD compatability, but dts CD and DVD-Audio options too so you can listen to surround sound encoded discs.

    The new Genesis offers a 17-speaker, discrete 7.1 Lexicon sound system...wish they'd put options like this in entry-level Corollas, Elantras, Cruze, Focus, etc., for commoners like myself that can't drop $60k on a car.

    Took a Genesis for a test drive with The Beatles - Love (DVD-A, 24/96 MLP 5.1) - so good!!

    Ultra-high fidelity was an absolute development requirement for the G90 audio system to complete the luxurious cabin ambiance. Presenting a concert-like experience, the Lexicon® Premium Sound System boasts QuantumLogic® Surround sound with 17 speakers and a 10-inch subwoofer. Developed in concert with Grammy Award-winning artists and producers, QuantumLogic® Surround is a revolutionary new audio algorithm that is designed to mimic the acoustics of the original performance and recording space, identifying individual voices and instruments, and re-authoring these into a precise multi-channel soundstage. In addition, Clari-Fi® music reconstruction technology rebuilds sonic details typically lost in the compression process for digital music sources, adjusting fine musical nuances based on the overall quality of the audio signal. This helps to further maximize the high-fidelity listening experience with every track.
    That bolded bit? That's for all the lossy mp3/iTunes folks.

    Cool. They put a great sound system in a car no one's ever heard of.

    Seriously though... what the hell is Genesis?

    It's the Hyundai Genesis, this year they've spun Genesis into it's own brand and dropped Hyundai but same thing. They've been offering the discrete Lexicon 7.1 system in the Hyundai Genesis and Hyundai Equus for quite a few years now.

    Several Acura, Buick, Cadillac, Acadia, Infiniti and Lexus models have also had high resolution surround sound options available over the years, I believe a few Acura models still offer surround options but not sure if they do DVD-A anymore, just lossy DVD-V. Kind of defeats the purpose. Maybe they can play FLAC 5.1 tho.

    Sawing out a hole in your dash for a center channel, not so easy!

    What is a good cleaner to clean a cd with? Somehow one of my non-DMB discs has a small dry patch of something on it. Don't want to scratch the CD by just wiping it off. Not sure how the dry crap got on there. It went from the package to the car cd. Spun it a few times then it started to skip. Looked at the CD and it had a small dirt patch on it.

    Has anyone had issues with distortion on their iPods, whilst we're on a semi-related topic? When I put the EQ onto 'bass boost' it distorts a lot of (especially newer) music.....
