I currently have a similar system made by RCA, but when the CD changer rotates it makes a very jarring sound. How loud is the CD rotation on this mode

Its about the same as other stereos I've owned. Its not quiet or silent but it's not obnoxious either. So "average" I guess would be more suitable answer.

The CD tray doesn't rotate. They have drawers that open and close and are very quiet.

hi Sarah, this boom box came broken (CD part), the quality of the sound for the radio is very poor. I would suggest you to look for another option. it is pretty, but that is it.

You can get an adapter cable to go from the RCA on the cd changer to a 3.5mm phono plug and then plug that into the audio in port of the soundbar. Not digital like the optical cable, but the changer isn't optical out anyways and this is much cheaper.

I'm sorry I can't answer your question, Rebekah. I had to send the machine back immediately after I received it, because the CD player wasn't working at all. I ordered a different machine through WalMart for the same price. I hope you find the answer you're looking for.

No CD player these days start instantly. Give it 4-5 seconds to read the disc.It says it plays MP3 material, even though I did not test it personally.I own this CD player, after sending back another brand/model, that got rave reviews, but did not play all my CD-Rs recorded on PC.This Tascam plays that CD-R. And it also sounds great.If you want a simple CD player that does the job without glitches, with a natural sound, this is one I would highly recommend.

Mine is in a home stereo setup. Quietest turntable I've ever had. I had issues with the same cartridge because of the high output. Changed them out and no more hum.

Mine just quite playing. Stops in the middle of a song so it is not the CD switch. Very disappointed. Tried different CD's with the same result.

Hello. I am having no luck with the CD-R's I have bought. Is there and brand that actually works in this machine? Thanks for your time, troy.

the cd sound is less than perfect. its ok. If you are used to quality sound I would not use this for cds. It is passable for cd use if not

Agree with the previous comment with the one exception - mine had nonworking CD player so I returned it. Purchased similar but a little more expensive SONY.

I attempted to play my DVD on it and it FAILED. There is an adapter you can buy to convert your CD's into great sounding LP's, but this requires much effort and concentration. I suggest closing your eyes and listening very carefully to your player when the CD is playing and you will hear sound produced very similar to your desired music.

i have the same issue, it doesnt happen on all discs, and some are louder than others. i own sveral bd players including the s580 the model right below ths one and none of them have this issue, so i dont know if its normal forthis particular unit or not but it is very annoying

Anybody tried to play CD in this. I got this player but it's not playing CDs.

Really? I have this unit, and I didn't even know it played music CDs. But I have to admit I use it mostly as a TV for watching the news while I'm in the kitchen. I have used the DVD function but have not tried the radio part of it and didn't even know if would play music CDs. That's good to know! One more thing I have discovered is that the remote has such tiny buttons, it's hard to hit the ones you want. But that's a minor complaint.

NO CD player will give you a "seamless" stream of music when changing discs .. but I'm sure you know that. I bought this Yamaha 697-BL Carousel-Type Changer a couple of years back, and it's the VERY BEST player I've ever owned! I've had several different manufacturer's models over the years and decided I wanted another carousel-type player .. this was the best decision I've made yet! MANY features, ease of use, dependable .. what more do you need?

Also. In all honesty, I would not recommend this product. I bought this from a local department store, not from Amazon. That's where I made my mistake. If I'd found it here and read the reviews, I'd never have bought it in the first place. Two thumbs up to Amazon's reviews! Take them seriously!! On this CD player, the sound is fine, and it's nice having an all-in-one system that plays 5 CDs; but the remote is a joke: it doesn't power on or off, and no volume control! Goofy. Worst of all: the horribly loud clunking sound as the carousel moves to the next CD. I thought it was broken until I read other people's reviews. It's the nature of the beast! So...think twice!!

The sound comes out of the bottom of the unit. I have been dubbing my vinyl to CDs and the sound is very good. You can hear the separation of the stereo and everything.
