roamingguy 300291 Report post Posted November 8, 2012 I think come the New Year I'm going to splurge and get a portable CD player to take with me on out calls to have some background music playing. Can you get detachable speakers for sony discmans, and if so, does anyone know how the sound quality is. Or are there other smaller portable cd players out there. I don't want to be walking through a hotel lobby carrying an oversized boom box with me LOL Now as for music, and ladies, your opinion greatly appreciated (although all CERBite's may join in), what sort of music would you like to hear if you went to an out call. I know someone who can burn a disc or two for me. Thanks in advance RG Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PistolPete 61421 Report post Posted November 8, 2012 Laptops, Ipads what ever can play music just as well as a CD player, unless you don't have one. I have over 900 songs through Itunes ( I believe in paying for music not stealing it) So when I have a outcall or even an incall I will bring my Ipad loaded with music. As far as music goes, anything from soft rock,jazz,country,blues and some pop. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BownChickaBown 4829 Report post Posted November 8, 2012 I highly recommend 'NakedMusic presents Midnight Snack Volume One' playing from Start to Finish. (You can thank me later :P ) (sample) Natural High: As well, I see adverts nowadays for small portable speakers you simply put on your phone to amplify the sound. Keeps it simple in the new millennium. Fits in your coat pockets, and just use the mp3s on your mobi. Lots of reviews out there for which ones are best quality. Even make a YouTube playlist and play it anywhere you go with Internet access. On whatever device you or her may have. Lots of TVs can now get YouTube too. Keep it groovy! ;) 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tallguy007 4172 Report post Posted November 8, 2012 Sony bundles some of their MP3 players with a little speaker dock. Sample link, happens to be on sale: http://www.thesource.ca/estore/product.aspx?product=1417400&language=en-CA The speakers are fine for background music in a room. They're very light and easy to transport. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
contraman 5480 Report post Posted November 8, 2012 I'm a fan of this little Altec Lansing speaker. Plugs into anything with a headphone jack, runs on 3 AAA batteries. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mooophil 181 Report post Posted November 9, 2012 This little speaker is awesome http://www.amazon.ca/OrigAudio-Volcano-Portable-Capsule-Speaker/dp/B004R6H4RA (You can get them cheaper than that - I got one for $15 at Canada Computers) I was shocked when I heard it - I didn't think it would sound so good. I use one with my smartphone and it's excellent (all things being relative, of course). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
contraman 5480 Report post Posted November 9, 2012 PS: RoamingGuy, FWIW, get an iPod instead of a portable CD player. The truly teeny, $49 iPod Shuffle will hold several hundred songs; the iPod Nano will hold a couple of thousand for $150. Portable CD players at the Source are $30. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
conquistador 18487 Report post Posted November 9, 2012 (edited) RG, you don't really need a CD player, just use your Galaxy Note to store music on. I use to have an mp3 player and now just use my phone. I can store music and stream on my phone if i like (make sure you have the data for streaming though). If you have music on your PC then simply drag and drop to the phone...even Itunes music, if you use it. All you would really need would be a speaker or maybe use the speakers on the TV and just require an audio cable.
