Not long ago I decided to join the physical medium of music, which is especially important given the dominance of AI audio, and bought a vinyl record player for myself, which exceeded all my expectations.
One of the first albums in the collection was the anniversary edition of “Random Access Memories” from Daft Punk. In short, “highs.” 👍
I’m thinking of going even further and getting an audio CD player as well – I’m considering the Syitren R300. Of course, they already collect vinyl records, such a device will be an additional addition.

This item is packaged in a neat cardboard box with a minimalist design. On the cover there is only a diagram of the device and the official website. The player itself is made in retro style with modern elements. There are several color options, including black with “wood” and conditionally white. Both options are very good. 👌
Square-shaped device with a hinged lid. The left side is for disks, the right is for control. The buttons seem to be conveniently located. They write online that they are getting a nice deal. Plus, the adjustment wheel makes precise steps to fine-tune the sound level.
Some characteristics:
▸ Bluetooth 5.3 (must have a stable connection).
▸ Audio leads: 3.5 mm and optical SPDIF (yes, and good).
▸ Supported discs: CD, CD-R, CD-RW (no DVD, but this is not necessary).
▸ Audio formats: CD, MP3, WAV, WMA (specifically, I’m only interested in the first one, because I definitely don’t plan to record anything myself).
▸ Battery: 2000 mAh, provides up to 6 hours of operation (yes, can be used without a permanent wired connection).
▸ Charging: via Type-C, full takes about 4 hours.
▸ Dimensions and weight: 162×147.3×32.5 mm, 389 g.
Under the control panel there is a small display showing the time, track number, charge level and other parameters. It’s a pity that when the lid is closed, the information is not visible – this is not so critical, but a little stupid. Control is carried out only through physical buttons, convenient for use “on the street”.
I personally really need Bluetooth connectivity because I’ll be using this thing with a Marshall wireless audio system. It works simply: just hold down the function button for 2 seconds, and the device is ready to connect to any device.
Judging by the reviews, the sound quality is excellent. Syitren R300 copes well with different genres – from rock to electronic music. The sound is clear, perfect balance, no impurities. However, all technologies have long been studied and are well understood, so the pattern is not accidental.
A compact and lightweight device that makes it an indispensable companion even when traveling. Whether it was outdoor recreation or a trip out of town – in theory, I threw myself into the water and went ahead. Of course, I myself would hardly use such a thing in this format, but, to be honest, anything can happen.
In short, if, like me, you already love vinyl records, then you will definitely appreciate this CD player. It allows you to listen to your favorite music in digital format without losing quality. But much more interesting is this whole process of searching for audio media and the process of collecting them – at least this is mine, if I may, IMHO. 🖖
