Manufacturers all want to one-up each other so they add little tweaks to their devices just to make them stand out from the rest.
If you want to listen to their favorite music before going to bed but do not want to be bothered with earphones, then you need to get yourself a clock radio with a CD player. Some CD alarm clocks have nice-sounding speakers that can somehow accurately reproduce music and sounds. If you have trouble sleeping, you can load up your favorite sleep time tunes CD on the tray then set the sleep timer to go off after half an hour to an hour.
This should be long enough for you to get to sleep and stay asleep until the alarm wakes you up the following morning. Speaking of the alarm, if you are sick of the incessant annoying beeping sounds that most other alarm clocks make, you will love having a CD player alarm clock.
You have the option to wake up to your favorite morning radio program or get nudged gently out of sleep by your favorite song on the CD. You can also choose the HWS buzzer, which is a much gentler way of waking up from a deep slumber.
All of these are better options compared to getting rudely awakened by loud beeping noises. There are many brands of CD clock radios out there and not all of them are worth your time and money. Some look great on the outside but when you turn on the music, it turns out that the ultra-small speakers are not capable of pumping out decent quality audio. They usually sound like tin cans. However, others can make great CD clock radios.
There is no standard way to set up these devices. Some radios are easy-to-use that one can easily set it up without checking the manual. You can easily set the time and alarms without prior experience. You just look at the buttons and immediately know which ones do what. If you did your research properly, you will get a CD player alarm clock that even an elementary grade kid can program. Most of the time, if you can manage by yourself to set the correct time and date for the clock, you can also figure out how to set the alarms.
For complicated CD player alarm clocks, you better hope that the instructions are easy to understand literally. That way, you will not encounter problems setting them up. Since not that many people buy music CDs anymore, you may be wondering if there is a way for these radios to play MP3 files. The good news is that some brands offer radios that can read and play MP3 files. This way, they can play their favorite songs over and over again without scratching up their CD. These files can also be burned into a CD-R, which you can then play using a compliant device.
The great thing about doing this is that you can save hundreds of songs in MP3 format compared to just a dozen or so when saved as an audio CD.
Search for radio alarm clocks that have CD players capable of reading MP3 files. This way, you can listen to hundreds of songs without having to change discs. Some brands and models allow you to turn the units into external speakers for devices.
The most common way to connect your devices to these radios is to use the auxiliary input jack. Just plug in the aux cord which is just a cord with 3. Go through the settings of the radio and choose the AUX mode. This will then turn the radio into a speaker for the smartphone or MP3 player. Then there is the Bluetooth option. This one is better since you will not have to deal with wires and you do not have to fiddle around much with settings.
Usually, in Bluetooth-enabled radios, there is a dedicated button for Bluetooth. You just need to press this button and the radio will be ready to pair with a smartphone. Once paired, it will operate as an external speaker for the smartphone. It is fairly easy to take care of your CD player alarm clock, especially if you just use it indoors as you are supposed to. When used indoors, you only have to worry about dust gathering on top of the radio. This makes it different from outdoor radios where you also have to take care of mud and other debris.
First, turn off the clock radio and unplug it just to be sure. Take a damp, clean rag then proceed to wipe off any dust particles that you find on the surface of the radio. You can also use some plastic polish afterward to give it a good shine. If you want to clean the CD laser, get a Q-tip, moisten the tip with some rubbing alcohol then gently scrub the lens that you can see when you open up the cover.
Just make sure that you have just enough rubbing alcohol to gently wipe away any dirt on the glass lens of the CD reader.
If the CD tray is hidden inside the radio, you might need to buy a CD reader cleaning kit, which you can find in most computer parts stores. To prevent the disc tray from getting dirty, clean your CD collection before you play them in the CD player. Contrary to what most people believe, you can touch both sides of a CD but you will be leaving fingerprints all over the surface.
You can clean this using a clean microfiber rag and a bit of rubbing alcohol. Usually, these radios have the same length of warranty as other electronic devices, which is around 1 to 3 years. This is already long enough. However, some brands provide a lifetime limited warranty wherein the manufacturer will go about replacing your unit if you are not completely satisfied with it.
Some will even provide you with a complete refund without asking you any questions. You will want to get a radio that has the longest warranty possible but also consider how the company who made that product handles product returns.
Note that many manufacturers say that they provide lifetime warranties but the customer has to jump through a lot of bureaucratic hoops to get their refunds or replacements. The key here is to look for customer reviews. If most of the customers seem to like the customer service of a particular company then it is safe to say that you can trust them enough to buy their product. You will find quite a lot of these devices in most electronics stores in the city.
However, be careful when picking up something that comes from an obscure company. This is not to say that all electronics stores do this but most of them do. You have to be cautious of knock-offs.
These might look like brand-name radios but they are just cheap copies. This is not to say that all electronics stores carry counterfeits but there are plenty of them who do. Another more convenient way to shop for electronics like CD clock radios is to do so online.
There are many online retail sites, like Amazon and eBay, where you can find dozens upon dozens of different CD clock radios for sale. The great thing about using these websites is that you can compare prices coming from different sellers. This is one way to make sure that you get the genuine product. Now that you know what to look for when shopping for an alarm clock CD player, you can start wading through the many available brands and models and pick out the one that you think suits your needs the best.
Also, I hope that the list of recommended radios was of help. CD player alarm clocks can do more than what their name purports they do. Some models even have additional features or functions that are far superior to what others have. Do your research if you want to find the best CD clock radio that suits you well. However, I was hoping that there will be a way to use this radio as a loudspeaker for my smartphone. I was quite disappointed to find that this has no Bluetooth connectivity nor an aux input jack, though.
This radio would have been perfect if there were other audio inputs.
