- This doesn't happen on mine. If I were you I'd take it back as this is

- I don't have any problems with mine being built "unsolidly". It performs
- better than I had hoped, so I am very pleased with it. As a sidenote,
- I had originally purchased the Sony 10-disc magazine (I don't remember the
- model #, sorry) and was really annoyed at the amount of noise that it made
- when changing discs. the salesperson where i purchased it said that it
- was normal, but let me trade it in for the Denon anyway.
