I have a Pioneer CLD-1750 that is in current use and Pioneer CLD-2950 that needs a small part to attach to the top of the spindle motor where the centre hole of the disc is supported a piece of rubber or rubber ring that sticks to the spindle.

The Pioneer CLD-1750 can a bit noisy due to start up and the acceleration of the discs speed tends to be a little off putting that is until the film starts and as the laser is tracking thou the disc the speed is gradually slowing down and getting quieter as well, I never gave it much thought to take an average SPL db read to see how loud the player is.
