CD Players

*A lot more images and videos of this product in video review! So, my first Eversolo review. It's not that I didn't have any chance to listen to the DMP-A6 Gen 2 and DMP-A8 Gen 1. It's that I listened to them much too late, so everyone already did reviews, and I honestly thought that my review would be one too many. But then Eversolo announced the DMP-A8 Gen 2 Master Edition, with a fully functioning CD player. Me, a huge enthusiast for CD players, with the combined power and

So I recently got the SMSL PL150, and with that I had in my possession the entire new line of SMSL CD players. While I could do a regular review of the PL150, with my previous reviews of the PL100 Pro and PL200 I think there is not much I could have added here. So something came to my mind as I listened to all of their CD players. Four CD players. One company. And somewhere between 150 and 670 dollars, there is a line where spending more stops making sense.

Modern versatile player in 2026 The idea of buying a CD player in 2026 is always going to be fascinating to me and bring a smile to my face. I have been a huge supporter of CDs, and for SMSL to deliver budget-friendly CD players with the PL20, PL100, and PL150 is just the right gateway that people need to start appreciating this great format more. But recently SMSL released the PL100 Pro, which muddies the waters about which one you should buy — the 100 or the 150. Well, don’

*More information, videos and photos of this product in review above I think I started my audio lover career at the twilight of cassette players. I personally never liked cassette players, I think they were a portable necessity of their age, but just could never translate well into the future once newer and greater things arrived.
