Black Friday is over, but even if you missed out on grabbing a Black Friday CD player deal, there's still time to dive in as many sales are still running.

For example, you can get your hands on this Philips CD player with a pair of bookshelf speakers with 29% off at Amazon - taking the price down from $179.99 to $127.49.

And if you're in the UK, you can get our highly-rated Majority Oakington CD player at Amazon with 29% off. It's currently down from £164.95 to £116.95.

Although these discounts are still live at the time of writing, they could come to an end at any moment. With that in mind, snap something up quickly if you see something you love.

Thanks for checking in with Louder - let's do it all again next year!

When do the 2024 Black Friday CD players deals start?

This year's Black Friday will officially kick-off on November 29, with all the sales continuing right through the weekend, before culminating on Cyber Monday on December 2.

I've been involved with covering the Black Friday sales full-time since 2019 and, as you can see with the selection above, the deals are getting earlier every year, as online retailers jostle for your hard-earned cash.

Myself and the Louder team are here to bring you all the awesome Black Friday CD player deals as soon as we see them - and posting them right here.

So whether you're after your first CD player, looking for a player after rediscovering your collection in the attic, hunting for a fresh new model, or looking for a portable unit, keep this page bookmarked and check back regularly for some excellent Black Friday CD player deals.

What CD player deals should I expect to see?

I've been covering Black Friday full-time since 2019 and there are always great deals across the board on CD players in all shapes and sizes - and with this November's sales in the spotlight, discounts on models from the likes of Cambridge Audio, Technics, Philips, Majority, Panasonic, Denon, Arcam, Onkyo and more are starting to come in.

There are portable CD players, all-in-one units, players with additional DAB digital radio functionality, while Bluetooth can also be found in many CD players these days.

CDs might not be flavour of the month, but they're still going strong despite fierce competition from streaming services and vinyl sales. They don't enjoy the same sales as in previous years, but if you have amassed a collection, you'll find CD players on sale at very competitive prices this year.

I'm keeping my eyes on retail sites including Amazon, John Lewis, Walmart, BestBuy and Target and bringing you the best Black Friday CD player deals as soon as I find them.

Shopping tips

Before Black Friday officially arrives, I like to get a little bit of preparation done in advance to ease the financial burden of all those amazing deals. Hopefully, some of these tips will help you grab a cracking Black Friday CD player bargain.

1. Keep a list handy: By keeping a list of the products you're interested in handy means you'll have a more focused approach when looking out for a great deal. I keep a list of all the products I'm on the lookout for on my phone and on my Amazon wish list so I can check at a glance what's on sale and when.

2. Budget: This year's Black Friday takes place on the second to last day of the month, so for a lot of people, that means it will fall around pay day. But to take some of the stress out of the big shop, if you can put some money aside for the sales, it can certainly ease the financial burden of grabbing a new CD player. I've been putting a little bit of cash aside for the Black Friday weekend - not a lot, but what I do save now will help once I start adding products to my basket.

3. Shop around: Before throwing your money at a new CD player, comparing prices of the item you're keen on is well worth 5 minutes of your time. Prices around Black Friday can vary wildly, and some retailers will also throw in the occasional freebie. Check the small print and prices.

Myself and the Louder team are doing that so we can bring you some great CD player savings right here, so keep this page bookmarked and check back regularly. Also keep your eyes on our Black Friday music deals page. Not only will be have CD player deals, but also discounts on all sorts of other products such as CDs, vinyl box sets, headphones, Lego kits, turntables and more.

How we choose products

I've mentioned previously that I still buy CDs so when it comes to choosing a CD player, I first take a look at what the big names including Philips, Sony and Panasonic have out on the market.

I'll then look at what extras the CD player has: Does it have Bluetooth connectivity? Is it compact enough for my music shelf? Does it have a built-in DAB radio? Does it come with a remote control? Do I have wired speakers? Is it portable?

I'll always highlight the important information to help you make an informed decision - and if there's a lesser-known CD player brand, I'll check it out thoroughly before recommending it to you.

Myself and the Louder team are bringing you the Black Friday CD player deals that we think offer great value for money - and posting them right here.
