Description
People are tired of paying for streaming services and want to own their music, knowing it won’t just simply disappear without notice. Vinyl records are expensive and degrade the more you play them. So there has been a resurgence in CD’s, which is why I sell them in my store.
There are two main benefits with CD’s. Firstly, they always sound the same no matter how many times you play them. Secondly, they offer a far superior sound quality to vinyl.
But the problem is, most people don’t own CD players anymore and if there is an old one stored away somewhere, it is highly unlikely it will still work properly – if at all. So I have sourced a low cost, portable version, that has features those older models never even had. Back in the 1980’s and 90’s, we had what were called Discman’s, which were how we played CD’s on the move. You can think of this player as a modern version of those.
Features
This player has a builtin 2000mAh, rechargeable battery and can also be powered by a USB-C 5V power module. The black body will not show dirty fingerprints and the lid is frosted, so it is not a fingerprint magnet. There is a small internal speaker, but using headphones will really bring the sound to life. You can also feed it into an amplifier too if you have a HiFi system.
It also has Bluetooth, so you can pair it with headphones or a powered speaker. Another cool feature is it can play files from a USB-A thumb-drive, such as MP3 or lossless WAV. I have tested its ability to handle being moved around and could not get it to skip, either by shaking it or even running it upside down. The power switch has three positions, Off, On and Hold – which disables the controls so bumping them won’t cause unexpected functions.
The volume control works by applying pressure forward or backward, with a 20-step automatic adjustment. There is no power module supplied, only a USB power cable, but I will include a 5V/2.1A one for free.
