As a post-90s generation, in the music stage, I have experienced the era of tapes, CDs and the Internet audio-visual era after MP3, the rapid development of technology has also changed the way we listen to songs. Despite this, driven by feelings, I still bought a Celin CD player R400, which not only gave my dusty record for many years a home, but also directly filled the atmosphere.
Saitalin this product, the main thing is a portable, from the outer packaging, the overall size is the same as the size of a CD, but there should be a lot of functions. The package contains a USC-C charging cable, an instruction manual, a test disc, and a matching acrylic transparent protective case.
The Syitren R400 CD player is designed with a delicate retro shape and is small in size, and can be placed in the living room, study or bedroom of the home, like a work of art, becoming the highlight of the space. This one in my hand is retro white, cream color, full of luxury, with the yellow button and revealing the feeling of youthful vitality, can be well integrated into different home decoration styles, no sense of disobedience, the artistic sense is particularly strong, placed at home, even when not in use, you can feel that the taste of home life has improved, the perfect integration of modern and retro.
The overall volume is 161mm (length) * 161mm (width) * 37mm (height), the small body is wireless and portable, the top of the button is 5 buttons and an additional button, which can be used to play/pause, previous song, next song, volume adjustment, mode/loop buttons, the side contains a switch button, and you can choose Bluetooth mode or 3.5 output.
In the details, let's carefully study the overall design idea of the CD card slot is a simple design, the center part has only one CD card slot, and the laser probe for reading the CD is placed in the groove, when the CD is placed and taken out, it will not hit the reader, which achieves good protection, plus there is an extra groove on the lower left side to prompt the disc to be taken here, and it is easy to take it freely, and there is no need to get stuck or hard pulled, which is still very intimate for the protection of the CD.
The design of the charging compartment behind it is also very knowledgeable, and the sunken charging compartment and wire duct will get the line stuck in the groove, which will not bend the wire, nor affect the use of the CD player when charging.
Above the power jack are three indicators indicating the amount of power, and by the way, it has a built-in 2000mAh battery. In the process of use, it can last for about 5 hours when fully charged. That's more than enough for me, after all, I don't spend too much time listening to music every day, and I only like to fiddle with it when I'm at home on Saturdays and Sundays to add some atmosphere to my boring life.
In order to protect the CD player, I also bought a set of transparent protective shells, put a safety protective case on the CD player, and then install the bracket to start the listening journey, and it is a handicraft when you put it in your hand.
After talking about the appearance, let's take a look at the function, in terms of function, the integration of various technologies has been realized, such as the 3.5mm output jack set up, which makes it possible to connect the CD player with the amplifier speaker and various wired headphones. At the same time, a popular Bluetooth connection solution has also been added. Equipped with the latest Bluetooth 5.3 version, not only the sound quality transmission delay is lower, the sound quality is better, but also the connection is simpler and more stable. Any playback tool with Bluetooth function can be connected to it, only one key to turn on the Bluetooth function, the CD player will automatically connect to the device, at first I was curious about how to succeed without manually connecting, I didn't expect that the two devices turned on Bluetooth at the same time on the instant connection, I have to sigh again about the progress of science and technology, which is also a combination of traditional CD and modern technology.
After the CD disc is installed, the cover is fastened, and it is connected to the speaker through Bluetooth, because the top cover adopts a transparent design, so you can directly see the scene when the CD player is running, just like the air fryer can intuitively see the cake baking process, which is very decompressing and full of atmosphere. The opening and closing of the lid is silky and the slight damping feeling is also smooth. Lying on the balcony on the weekend basking in the sun, listening to CDs, reading a novel, how comfortable it is.
In terms of sound effect, Saitalin R400 gives full play to the advantages of audio, and completely outputs the details and layers of sound to the audio. Of course, this also has a lot to do with the quality of the speaker itself. On the whole, I am still very satisfied with the performance of the sound, and it is a different feeling to listen to the discs of that year.
In addition, there is also a headphone jack, with the blessing of noise-canceling headphones, its sound quality is more prominent, more immersive, especially pure music, it sounds full of substitution, full of presence, the melody of each song is vividly displayed, I feel like I am in a music palace, every note is clear into the ear.
Overall, the Celthalink R400 CD player incorporates modern Bluetooth connectivity on top of the traditional retro feelings. Not only is it outstanding, but it is also reasonably priced, which not only allows you to retain your feelings, but also integrates a convenient way of digital listening. For friends who have a CD collection at home, it's really worth getting one.
