I have an "older" Sony CDP c505 5 disc player that has sound problems
as you go past track 3 or 4 (or to the outer edge of the CD itself) it
is kind of like cutting in and out and distortion ? Any adjustements I
can do to make this go away?


First check that the sled movement is absolutely free - that there is no no
grease on the slides that has gone 'sticky'. Problem could also be the sled
motor, the spindle motor, possibly the laser itself (make sure that the lens
is absolutely clean and shiny), or the surface mount electrolytics on the
servo board that are known trouble causers on the older Sonys. It is
unlikely that your problem can be cured by adjustment. Do not attempt random
adjustment, as this is only likely to compound the problem.
