How to hook CD player to this thing. Or can you? The manual PDF says this thing plays CDs, but these vertical units are a pain to mess with... plus the PDF content is "subject to change", so they can basically say all they can cram onto the page and if...

The one I received can only be connected to an iDevice or threw a device with Bluetooth.

The manual states: "Please use CD, CD-R and CR-RW discs bearing the 'DIGITALAUDIO' mark." It also states: "Depending on the quality of the disc and/or the condition of the recording, some CD-R or CD-RW discs may not be playable." and that "an audio CD created using a CD-RW disc may not play back satisfactorily on every audio CD player." I had difficulty with consistent play back of CDs I recorded - i.e., some played fine anywhere, and some would play on the TEAC and/or my computer, but not in the car and another time the same disc would not play on the TEAC. Sometimes they would play the first track (side one of a vinyl record) and not the second track (side 2 of the record). This was quite frustrating because I was wasting discs (since they can't be re-recorded). I then got some RW discs and still had problems. When I called TEAC, I was told the discs were most likely the cause of problem and that low cost generic discs were usually the culprit - I said I was using Maxell CD-R music discs and TDK CD-RW audio discs! He suggested using Sony. I have now recorded a few on Sony discs and had no playback problems - but that may be the luck of the draw since at least 2 Maxells also worked (and still work) fine.

Can't answer that, because I returned mine the next day. It would play one MP3 CD and then the next CD it would do an endless search without starting. I didn't even bother to try the SD card function. It is a nice looking unit and sounds good, but the quality of the key features on this player are NOT worth taking a chance on!! I paid fiftybucks for an MP3 player by memo rex...it works great!! No SD card feature though. :(

I believe you can hook it to the cd/radio if you have aux. in jacks or you can always play it thru the radio by tuning it to the proper station.

just got my unit, didn't even unwrap it. In the desc. it says it has AUX plugins (plural). When I looked at the back of the unit there are no plug ins, there is only 1 on the front. Needless to say, I can't use my Sirius Satellite Radio with it and you can't use additional speakers, tv, computer, etc. I didn't even try the CD player, maybe this one works but sadly I won't know because it's going back.

According to the manual, this does NOT play any Mp3-based CDs. It only plays AUDIO CDs, either burned or original discs.

No to both questions. A warning if you have'nt purchased this player. The cd player is crap--it stops playing intermittently with evey cd I try to play. A lesson to be learned here is that with cheap prices come cheap electronics.I would not recommend this product. Even the connections for the speaker wires when inserted into the radio/cd unit don't fit tight and have to be played with to get a solid connection. The am band in my area --Long Island N.Y. is bad and you can't turn the unit around in the hopes of getting a stronger signal because of the wires for the speakers and the placement of the unit if you do get a good signal---the tuning buttons and tuner knob may not be facing you it may be facing away from you. This is my experience with this purchase. Spend more money to hopefully to get a better product.

This is not a CD player it is an amplifier. A CD player can be connected to it.

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.

To Camilla: I also noticed when I push the play/pause button it shows "no usb". So I push the play/pause button again and the same thing happens. Then I pushed the Mode button that didn't seem to help either. I also noticed it does not respond immediately when you press any button. When I open and close the CD holder it goes back to square one. So now I just keep pushing the play/pause button and sometimes it responds. I don't like this at all. When you read the instructions they are very confusing. I am thinking about returning mine. Hope this helps you decide if you want to keep it.

Here is the manual for this unit. https://docs.sony.com/release/DFJ61.PDF It has a Line Out, headphone jack and DC (Power) In. It's a CD player, not an MP3 player. I have no idea if it can play MP3 CDs, though, but I doubt it. As for price, this unit isn't manufactured anymore, so if you're looking at the 3rd party price-gouging Amazon sellers trying to sell these off at $200+ ignore them and go for a reasonably-priced used model like I did in the $20 range.

I have never used this one to play CDs. However I owned the previous version of this player that played them without a problem. You should have no problem playing CDs with this unit. You will have to check the manual but I believe this will also play MP3 files on data CDs as well as regular audio CDS.

Not really. We tried to play several CDs with MP3 files on this product. It tried to read the CDs but could not read anything. So the product we received either was defective, or the product was not design to play MP3. We returned it a few days later.

It is my understanding that you must convert the CD to an mp3 format. And then you have to get it into I Tunes. Do yourself a favor.....buy a Phillips mp3 player and then loading tunes from anywhere (and most formats.

It was a gift, so I don't know. Honestly, I do not think that any cd players do what you are interested.

There's a sliding button just to the left of the headphone jack. make sure it's on "CD" and not "FM". Then just put a CD inane push the play button. that looks like "I>". If it doesn't play hit play again. It's touchy and I noticed sometimes I'll hit it twice by accident, which means it starts to play but pauses before the CD starts.
