My wife and I own over 250 CD's. We have had CD players in every car since invented .... until we bought a new 2018 Cadillac XT5.
It was not until I left the dealership in Owensboro , Kentucky armed with a 12 hours audio book on CD for my return trip to Birmingham that I discovered " those are a thing of the past and are not even offered as a factory add on"
After grumbling about it for four years and paying Sirius for songs she did not like or want to hear, I finally woke up to having a sound shop install her an aftermarket CD player, but I HATE those add ons with a little wired remote and knew she would too.
But since our 21st anniversary was coming up Friday, I stabbed in the dark on Monday and struck SOLID GOLD !!
I got Shawn, parts manager at Paul's Sound in Foley. We discussed my dilemma. While I held he found the perfect solution. A quality aftermarket CD player that fits inside the console and is totally controlled through the touch screen on the Cadillac.
It was in stock at his distributor in Marietta Georgia. I gave Shawn the green light and at noon Friday four days later , I drove away from Paul's listing to Otis Redding on Abby's CD on her Anniversary present.
The quality is excellent, the price very affordable, the service ..PRICELESS.
P. S. I expected a one man small sound shop, but was pleasantly amazed that it is a large retail store with marine equipment, custom wheel, huge sound systems, several professional installers and so much more.
I would give them six stars if possible !! read more
