Bush Jog Proof Portable CD Player - Silver

Product Information

Old CDs are generally really cheap to buy at the present time, with the obvious exception of rare or limited editions. Many new or used CDs can be yours for just a few pounds or dollars. Grab them while you can, because there’s no guarantee that they won’t shoot up in price – just as vinyl has in recent times. Which is the best quality portable CD player for you? Again this is a make I hadn’t previously come across, but the 5 year warranty on this Klim personal CD player would go a long way towards convincing me. Surely a company isn’t going to offer that unless they’re very confident in their products? The product must be correctly installed and operated in accordance with the instructions contained in the manual.

We have an old Sony boombox in our kitchen – alongside an Echo Dot. We’ve had it for almost two decades and it’s still as reliable as ever. There’s a reason why I’m a lifelong fan of Sony. As well as 80s and 90s music, of course. As someone’s first portable CD player, this is ideal. The colours should appeal to kids, tweens and teens, while the price means no one will be too upset if it did get damaged due to the carelessness of youth. It can be used outside or within the home, powered via batteries or the mains. I love the Klim Nomad – for happy owners it’s the best sounding portable CD player of the bunch. Is it the best portable CD player ever made? It’s a serious contender now that big brands like Sony have stopped making them. A rechargeable li-ion battery and Fusion earbuds come with it, and there’s also a 5 year warranty. So what are the benefits of CDs? I remember when we first heard of them, my stepdad marvelling at the idea of an indestructible music disc. It was an appealing idea – only late last summer during a heatwave I managed to warp one of my mum’s original Beatles vinyl singles pretty badly by leaving it in the summerhouse that I use as an office during hot weather. Never again.This Jensen CD player can run on mains or battery power, so it can be used both inside and outside the home as required.

I love the distinctive look of this Jensen portable CD player – there’s something space age about it. Maybe it’s the shaping of those built-in speakers, that are a little like stylised alien eyes. This CD boombox does have a telescopic antenna, after all…How much do you, personally, value the sound quality? If it’s the most important factor for you, then it’s worth spending more on a better machine. Such products tend to outlive cheaper options too – although that’s not always the case. Bass boost may help to enhance the sound. Also bear in mind that the headphones included with a premium product will tend to be of a much higher quality than their cheaper counterparts. It may thus be worth factoring in the cost of purchasing a pair if you choose a budget model. If you’re after a USB CD player for the car, though, you might not use headphones anyway. Portability This neat little boombox comes from Sony, my go-to audio brand. It plays cassettes, CDs and MP3 files, plus it has a radio tuner. Whether you’re looking at small CD players for home use or are willing to splash out on my Sony Walkman CD player best buy, I hope this guide helps with your journey into the wonderful world of the compact disc. Welcome to the 90s, indeed. If you want an introduction to the world of the compact disc, this Bush portable CD player could be the best portable player for a beginner.
