my car cd player is fucked up, but i'm not sure if it's the stereo or some electrical problem.
i'll be playing a cd and the sound will drop out and come back. but not drop out completely . it'll get all warbled and distorted, then drop out, then come back.. and it seems like it does that during the loud parts of songs (?).. but it's not "skipping" because the sound comes back where it should be in the song. i question whether it's a simple connection problem because it's not just losing audio and coming back, but sounding f'd up.
it's truly torturing me since i listen to most of my music in the car (as i am always stuck in traffic). but my stereo isn't under warranty so i can't just take it in. .
can anyone shed some light? it's causing physical pain

After smacking the side of my television recently to get some staticy stuff to stop my son said to his mother,
"I told you my daddy can fix stuff by hitting it really hard."
So, needless to say, if you were waiting around with five bucks in your hand waiting to buy my upcoming brochure Understanding Poop, you can put that five bucks away, 'cause it ain't happenin.

I like the Horseshoe. The cocktail waitresses stink, but it's hard to feel like the biggest loser in the room even when your losing at the Blackjack table. |

I walked to work in the snow today. Torrential rain I can understand - snow I just don't. It's totally alien to me.
Send the bikini bull riders at The Frontier my love, should you find yourself there.

maybe it's me who never had a sense of humour, yeah that's gotta be it.

Hey there mister Floop, here's some info. Check the bottom of this page - is this your stereo mentioned in the common problems section? Can you not get a cheap stereo from somewhere to test with, or at least buy one and take it back if the same problem occurs (i.e. a more serious electrical system fault)

Here's some info about removal:

Ah well, onwards and upwards

You may not have an external amp, but all stereos have some sort of amplification built into them. Otherwise, you'd need power to your speakers (and the sound would be amplified there). I second the new car/stereo/idea. I assume you don't have anything new in your car (command start, etc)?

what year is your car floop? it may still be under warranty. i used to work for a dealership, and whenever there was stereo complaints while still under warranty they replaced after a basic troubleshoot. troublechoot was to make sure the operator(you) was not a complete retard and hitting the mute button or complaining that sound was only coming out of their right-side speakers because they had the fade turned all the way to the right.

i would just take out my stereo and look at the wires but in my car (Honda Civic) it's such a bitch. you have to take off the whole dashboard to get the stereo out.
Surfer's healing hands are sounding very appealing.
I don't think you'll find anything with wires. It sounds like your amp is having problems as it gets near the rails. Possibly you've installed something else recently that's drawing more power and dropping the voltages, or some non-critical component has failed inside the driver. But difficult to say from here obviously.
I could also be completely wrong.
