Sound stutters during CD playback of my Philips device

Published on 2017-09-19

There might be various reasons why the sound from your Philips device is stuttering, please try the following steps to be able to enjoy your CDs again:

You may use a piece of soft fine cloth to gently wipe away any dust on the surface. Wipe away from the centre. Do not wipe in circles.

Note: If you are using CD cleaning liquid, always read and follow the instructions for using the cleaning liquid.

How to clean a CD
  • Avoid listening to disc that is scratched
  • If the CD lens is accessible, you may clean the lens using a CD lens cleaner (always read and follow the instructions for using the cleaner)
  • Use a lower compression level to burn tracks onto a CD. A compression level of higher than 320 kbps may cause problems.
  • If the problem persists, try listening to several other CDs
  • If the stuttering is heard also with a number of CDs, it is possible that device needs further investigation

If you are still facing the issue, please contact our Consumer support in order to provide a solution.
