Does a new cd transport require break-in time?

A big complaint with the now popular CXC is the all in one remote. I have found that Cambridge uses the common Phillips RC-5 protocol meaning many remotes will work with it. I had a remote from my Classe CDP-1 that to my surprise not only worked but the numeral buttons allowed direct track access. This means the CXC has the software to perform this function but marketing decided to have one remote for their whole component line.
Anyways I am very happy with mine post break-in.

@ricosound,

Did the SQ of your CXC improve overtime from the amount of playing time hours put on it?
If yes, about how many hours do you think it took until the CXC sounded its’ best?

It’s aggravating to find out the CXC is capable of accessing tracks but can’t because of marketing!
Also, I’m having issues with  mistracking on the unit.

You haven’t had it that long. I would contact the place you bought it from ASAP. Return it for another one or get a full refund.
