Hi

First make sure that the disk you are trying to play is an official bought disk, if you have done this and still get the reading NO DISK, this is because the Laser light as a fault, and the only remedy is a new CD player.

There is an inherent problem with this unit that is not the reader. I noticed that the red light which comes on when the super base is activated will sometimes flash while the unit is first trying to read the CD. It seems to be in sync with the disc spinning motor of the CD player. I have repaired a couple of these by checking and resoldering poor quality solder joints on the CD sub board and a few on the main circuit board. But this has not repaired all of them. Sony need to look into this.
