No, but that was not the relevant issue. It was considerably less immune than other CD players in its price class, which makes for a bit of a dilemma since, at least to my ears, it offered a superior sound quality to what I've heard from other comparable players. Is it greedy to want both sound quality and good isolation? This might not be a particular problem for many people who can easily avoid subjecting the unit to mechanical shock, but those who, like me, have small children in the house know that it's impossible to predict when they'll come storming through which, in the case of this particular player in my friend's installation, caused ear-splitting sputters to result. - Greg Paley
