Review: Brennan JB7 CD Player
Store, browse and listen to your complete CD collection on the revolutionary Brennan…
What’s the point in owning hundreds of CDs worth thousands of pounds if you never listen to them? The problem with CDs is that it’s quicker to make a cup of coffee than dip into a CD. Try timing how long it takes to pick a CD, load it in the CD player, play a snippet from a track or two, eject it and put it back where it came from. Then there is the problem of finding music. The print on a CD spine is tiny. What if the track is on a compilation CD? What if the CD is in the car? Then there is the clutter. You need to keep your CDs near the player or you won’t play them. So you are forced to share your living space with literally hundreds of cheap plastic boxes.
CDs are a great way to listen to music but they are also inconvenient, inaccessible and a bit of a chore. The Brennan JB7 is a CD player with a hard disk that stores up to 5,000 CDs – and that’s not all. It saves space and clutter and delivers near immediate access to an entire music collection. JB7 owners rediscover then fall in love with their music again simply because the Brennan makes it so accessible.
The Brennan also records from vinyl and cassette so you can enjoy your entire music collection hit keep the originals in another room or retire them to the attic.
Small enough to pick up with one hand yet big enough for a lifetime of music, the Brennan JB7 is one man’s brilliant idea for everyone’s forgotten music.
