I have a Sony CDP-302 player.  Out of about 90 disks, only two have not
played properly.  One lost all audio in the left channel for about 1/4
second, the other had what sounded like pops.

Both problems were reproducable on a Discman.

The disk with pops was visibly physically damaged.

A friend got a 302, and has also had (virtually) no problems.

I am so happy with what I have, I am getting a second player, and am very
hesitantly trying a Technics SL-P2 for my office.  I'd rather get a Sony 102,
but the price difference is large.
