I need to buy a new CD player

yes I still listen to CDs at home and buy new new releases on CD. I also used to listen to CDs in the car but alas, they’ve phased out the CD player probably for good
Anyway, my 5-disc player/changer is on its last. The carousel only intermittently works and it has had a skipping issue for several years. It’s a JVC XLF254 if that matters, plugged into a kenwood receiver that works fine
Any recs on a new one? I just need it to plug into the amp and play the discs, that’s it
TIA

You might want to check Amazon, Crutchfield and Ebay.

I had a Sony carousel. Through my experience and seeing what’s gone on with friends, the thing that always seems to fail on these players is the carousel feature. Happened to me, looks like it happened to you. Personally, I’d avoid carousel or multi-disc players in general.
You can get something to satisfy the need you described for well under $100. I had a single disc Pioneer that lasted me for at least 30 years. I would go for something similar.

I came to recommend the onkyo. I watched a YouTube review of it a few weeks ago. I’d buy one.

You could probably get a used Bose at a reasonable price.

I just use my dvr player when I really want to listen to a cd - though I have to unplug one of the inputs to get clear audio.
I do miss the ol' 5 disc carousel set at random/shuffle to give me some mood music of my choosing for a couple hours.

My single disc Pioneer is a dual voltage unit I bought at the BX when I was stationed in England 87-91.
Still works perfectly.

Did anyone ever have the Sony 200 disc carousel...and then upgrade to the 300 when it came out?
