Is there any way I can listen to cds on the boombox with headphones? Or ear buds?

No. In the future, if you don't see the letters "CD" anywhere in the description/product features, its safe to assume CDs are not compatible with the device. The ability to play CD's is not a function a company would choose to include without making it apparent to consumers.

Yes! There is! You'll need a few things though; A Sony Walkman or similar cd player, and a male to male 3.5mm audio cord/cable. Then just plug in the cd player into the boom boxs' aux in port with the audio cable, then plug in your headphones/ear buds into the headphone/ear bud 3.5mm audio output port on the back of the machine. Put the machine on Aux in mode, and there you go...

It does not have any place to put in a CD. Only way you can listen to a CD is if you have a portable cd player, and then you can take the output through the Aux cable and connect it to this one and listen to music through the speakers. It can act as a speaker for a cd player using the Aux. cable, for someone that does not want to use the headphones, or if multiple people want to listen to the cd over the speaker.

No, it does not play CDs. You can still listen to music on it through headphones though.

No you cannot. Do not buy this product. Mine broke after about a month and will no longer play CDs. The USB port is for thumb drive use and does not support mp3 play let alone charging.

Hi Rick, the Boombox has a single Audio in port. You can connect a TV or DVD Player to it using a Stereo -mini jack on one end and two phono plugs on the other end. -Vincent

Turn on. Press the Source button till CD appears in the screen. Press the lower right part of the right dial on the top of the boombox. The CD will play. Tom.

I have only used MP3 disks that play like normal CDs. The Sony literature that came with the Boombox says that the audio plug uses a stero minijack with an imput minimum of 245 mV. Bob Benson

Yes you can however, the sound quality is not good enough to enjoy digital audio files from. You will be better served by purchasing a dedicated set of wireless headphones.

Yes you can connect multiple music players like your iPods and play the music on the iPod boombox.

If they are CDs or on a flash drive, you should be able to. I returned my player because the the cable connection was loose and I had to hold it in to use. Too bad, because the idea of combining an MP3 with a CD player is good.

No Joy, you don't HAVE to buy speakers for this.. but if you want to listen to the audio output you'll either need headphones or speakers + speaker cable + an amplifier.If you only want to 'rip' CDs to USB devices, you don't need either but you won't hear anything.

Jonathan - yes, you can hook up a CD player or any other music player as long as your CD player has a connector for headphones. Then all you do is buy a 3.5mm male-to-male cable and connect the DVD player to the Panasonic speakers. I mostly use the Panasonic with a Bluetooth connection to my laptop, iPhone, iPad and Nano but I've used it with a cable as well. Nice sound and good product. I own two of them I like them so muchAlso, the female input jack is next to the power cord. Not easy to see but it's there

As long as your boombox has an auxiliary input then yes. The plug is "headphone sized" so anything headphones plug in to, so will these. I connect my phone or iPod into my computer speakers all the time.

All I see on it is an "Aux in" plug, where you can presumably plug in an external source (like a tape deck), and there's also a USB jack on the front, which I've never used for anything. If you have USB speakers you might try them out and if they work then USB headphones might also, if there is such a thing as USB headphones. I just listen to CDs on the built-in speakers so I haven't tried out all the features. If the user manual is on-line it may have more info. Good luck! Marie

Try plugging it in to an electrical outlet. Given that you will also need an amplifier with speakers. The amplifier/receiver will need to have a place where you can plug a patch cord in from the CD player and a switch which will select the CD player.

Well, my "sound system" is an old Sony boombox and it doesn't have an aux input. So I'm wondering what I need to buy to play back my recordings. Thanks.
