Need to find a compact (size) CD player with RCA output

It's been tough to find any kind of cd players with rca output that are relatively small. I'm looking for something sort of cube shaped because that is what I have space for. If anyone reading this has such a device or knows of one, could you please tell me the name and manufacturer?

Anything less than or equal to 9 1/2" across, 9 1/2" tall, and even up to 10" deep

You might want to provide some meaningful measurements if you want some meaningful answers.

But,."Y" connectors exist with 3.5 mm on one side and RCA plugs on the other exist that allow any portable CD player to provide the functionality you seek.

Look for compact systems, the goodwill always has them. Most of them also have optical and RCA outputs.

Like these....

jeez, I can't believe I hadn't thought of that. I'll use that for the time being,

As far as dimensions, I figured I would look up the suggestions for their dimensions and compare to what I've got to deal with. I'll go ahead and add it to the description anyway

See post directly above. :)
 
Here's the RCA output Sony SCPH-1001 which is a fine sounding CD player and can often be found for $5 to $10 at flea markets. For RC your can use a PS2 plug in transmitter and remote which sell for under $10 on eBay.

I have a philips cd371 that is small.
I swap it for my Arcam cd73t. The philips stands up really well it has a easy warm but very musical sound it's a nice little player. Some photos

Guys, do you really think the OP is still waiting to pull the trigger sixteen months later?

Even if so, he hasn't returned since 2016. :)
 
It appears he was here for one day.
AK members are so helpful that's all the time it took to hook him up.
