CD player

i dont believe so, if it did i didnt find it useful. i did have a CD player from factory. The first of my mods was a new headunit, then door speakers, subaru tweeters, Amp for the sub and my 4 channel will be arriving today so that will be wired in sometime next week

 

I burned all my CDs to MP3s. I have a Samsung Fit drive in my USB port (on the dash). I can listen to any of my CDs at any time.
Much better than fumbling around with CDs.

 

I don’t know if my truck has a CD player.

 

Prolly a Cassette

 

My 2018 has one. My old Subaru Outback had a CD changer AND a cassette player, I wish cars still had that. Oh well.

 

I’d like a CD player because I own about 300 CD’s.
Yes , I can spend hours burning them onto a stick and pretend that’s convenient.
Or I could just play the CD’s. Or I could if I had a CD player in my truck.

 

Except for the horrible sound quality. I'd sooner listen to talk radio before I listened to an MP3.

 

I had a similar problem with my 2018 Subaru, they removed the CD Player for 2018. I got a portable CD player for $25 from Best Buy and use a cord plugged into the Aux input. This way my phone stays clear. I had a 2nd cord that I left in my Subaru so I just put the CD player in whichever car I drive. I also have a large collection and have no desire to download anything, even if I don't have to use MP3 as the format. It's nice to just put in a Disc and listen.

 

Come down to audiohouse in Napa ca we have CD players for our trucks. They plug into the usb or we can swap out that oem radio.

 

Do the ones that plug into the USb mount in the car or are they Portable players?

 

I burn my MP3s at the highest bitrate. I also tried FLAC (lossless) and I don't notice any difference in quality.
I don't have premium audio, the audio plus base unit doesn't seem to have a high enough sound quality that MP3 vs FLAC vs CD makes a difference.
At least I didn't notice a difference.

 

I want a CD installed on my new 2020,,, why?, simple I like to listen to BOOKS on CD when i go on a road trip for crying out loud

 

Burn the CD to an MP3 and use a thumb drive in the dash usb port.

 

I'm opening a vintage CD shop where kids can shuffle up and down the aisles in their birkenstocks and hand-knit beanies, flip through albums just to hear that satisfying hard plastic "clack-clack-clack," and get into deep arguments on which Dave Matthews album was the best. Vinyl will be phasing out again and the newest generation of music nerds need the next big thing to feel all superior to each other. I just need to find the right employee that instead of getting paid, he just shows up for the unlimited coffee and insults.

 

Rip all your CDs to a USB using Windows Media Player. Plug that in to the USB slot in the truck. Problem solved.

 

There's always that, sounds a hellva lot cheaper and easier than installing yesteryear's yesterdecade's tech.

 

Dude I have 300 or more CDs. That's going to take some time and a big thumb drive.

 

I honestly can't even tell you if my '21 has a CD player in it without going outside to look...

 

I have at least 200 CDs. I burned a few a day. But now I have my entire CD library available through the head unit all the time.
