Abstract: An electronic apparatus for use in recording and/or playing back audio or video signals includes a six-sided housing of which at least a pair of opposite sides are arranged not parallel to each other, and a signal processor unit mounted in the housing and including at least a circuit board which has a degree of rigidity. The circuit board is arranged with its main side facing the non-parallelly arranged, paired opposite sides of the housing. This prevents the generation of resonance between the housing and the circuit board caused by a stress of vibration introduced to the housing and the circuit board, thus hardly allowing the audio or video signals to deteriorate their recording and/or playback properties.

Abstract: A loading apparatus for a disc-shaped recording medium including a disc transport unit having, in turn, a disc tray movable between a position protruding from a casing of the apparatus for exchanging a disc-shaped recording medium and an internal position for reproducing the recording medium by a player section, and a unit for suppressing vibrations produced in the disc tray by thrusting against the disc tray when the disc tray is at the position for reproducing the recording medium by the player section.
