Same thing happened to mine about 14 years. I had to replace the CD laser mechanism.

The line level input on BS9000 as with other B&O kit is rather insensitive when used with non B&O accessories.You'll need to crank up the output level of your Aux device.Does it have RCA(phono) and 3.5mm jack connections?Try another route?

The cd symptons are typical,but as the unit has been in store,the cd laser lens may be "foggy" and simply need cleaning.

Replacement lasers for the Mk1 are becoming scarce too.

Do you have a B&O techie nearby that could take a look at the unit for you?

So I have fixed the low volume problem.  The radio and ipod through Aux works great.  Now just the CD problem....

Have you cleaned the laser lens with some cotton wool and isopropyl alcohol?

I did try cleaning the lens with a Q-tip and isopropyl alcohol, however I don't think it was very efficient due to the limited gap between the laser and the clamper...  

Is there a way to gain easier access to the laser for cleaning?  

Thanks to everyone for the help!  I greatly appreciate it.

I have asked one of Beoworld senior members if you can clean laser using Test Mode 65. So far no answer. I actually disassemble clamper arm to do that

Peter, What is "Test Mode 65"? 

I may attempt a disassembly of the the clamper to inspect and clean it more thoroughly.  Do you have any tips?

Thanks!
