I need to replace the cd drive in a Teac GF-350 and cannot figure out how to ge the old drive out of the case. What is the procedure to do this?

Useful Information About Your CD-R or CD-RW :
• TOC means Table of Contents and it tells you whether or not your CD has data already on it. If your CD is blank it should have No Table of Contents (No TOC). If a CD has data on it, it will show the number of tracks as well as the amount of time recorded on it.

• If a CD is NOT finalized you can use it and add more tracks . If it is finalized you will not be able to modify it, meaning you will not be able to add anymore tracks.

• Please note that even though you can use a CD-RW, some machines may have problems with it.

Reviews on your TEAC are not good.

However, I think pressing 'PHONO' has to be done twice according to page 12 and 20 of the manual. Then read onwards in the manual.

Firstly double check that the recordable discs you have bear the label "Digital Audio" on them as per the attached picture. Secondly what happens when you go through the finialise procedure in the manual? Do you see the ?FIn--d? display when you select the finialise button? Do you see ?NO TOC? and ?REC? indicators blinking at the next step? Please update the question & let us know if the information given was useful to you - Good Luck!

Hi Dave, if you do not have good radio tuning, you would have to extend the antenna and try the result
Regarding the Phono, check that the pua is clean, that there is no residue stuck
I sent you the link to download the user manual
I hope you find my comment useful

UNFORtunately ive seen this many times, some systems only play originals and not recorded ones do to technology changes,

is it possible to fit a new laser unit to my GF350

Hi, This is just a guess but it may be worth a try. I have heard that Audio CD-Rs, which are the only media this machine will record onto, are famous for being finicky about being played on different kinds of CD readers. My suggestion is that you "rip" the Audio CD-R's content to your computer (in .wav or .MP3 format) and then make a copy of your album onto a reagular CD-R which is more likely to be played on any CD reader. Not sure if this'll work for you but it's worth a shot. Hope this helps.
