My home CD player has a USB port from which I plan to record albums and audio books onto a flash drive. Questions: 1) Can I play back on this? 2) 16g

I don't think you can, it doesn't have the right ports for that hookup, the only way to play music on this device is to have a CD player, or any kind of MP3 player

I'm not sure if you can plug an External USB device and play the files, you could however share your DVD/BluRay drive on your computer and play the files over the newtork (wired gigabit connection to be stable). It will play bluray/dvd iso or raw files. I bought a few 4TB externals and just created ISO files out of my blurays so I don't have to get up and get the disc, I can just select them from a list and play them.

The USB device port on the front of the unit only supports 16bit/44.1kHz CD quality or lower files on a USB thumb drive. It will not play files stored on an external drive unless the external drive has its own power source. The CD6005's front USB port will recognize and play up to 24bit/48kHz WAV files stored on an iPhone, iPad, or iPad Mini.

No, you could use an external HD. Yes, you can play audio CD's the are jacks in the back. The tutorial's on Youtube are very helpful also.

you really don't need it you can put all your music on a thumb drive and just plug it in to the face of it. I never used the CD player function since i bought this. i have a 64 gig thumb drive plugged in to mine which is more music than you can fit on 6 CD's. you can also plug in an ipod and any other mp3 player as long as you use the power and data feature.

not sure about any boomboxes with usb or sd recording, but i bought my son a Pyle PT560UA 300 watt stereo 2 yrs ago for 99.00 and it plays all usb music and off SD cards. i dont know if he's done any recording on it, but the sound is great. he has a 5 disc cd player on it, but hasnt tried recording. i myself have most my cd'd on my computer now and have loaded music on usb memory sticks, after i had went with a new stereo in my truck that plays usb sticks, etc. the stereos still go for the same price and i am wondering if the mini pyle stereo that plays usb and sd cards would work on my older home stereo reciever, so i could play the music on it, if it would plug into reciver some how. just search Pyle stereo's' or anything stereo wise keywords usb stereo, etc. hope this helps. the stereos still go for around same price as 2 yrs ago, i found mine for my son on ebay at the time but have seen it on amazon here now also. hope this helps

Plays fine in my boat, but now I mostly use a USB flash drive. I use a USB cable extension so the flash drive doesn't bounce in the unit, hoping that less weight would not damage the connection in the unit. If that connection has a problem, it's back to the CD and carrying the CDs.

Not sure what review that is, but I use a flash drive plugged into the USB port all the time and have no problems turning the volume up or down. The volume works just the same as when listening to a CD or the radio tuner.

Yes.it works great.I play music and also OTR (old time radio) programs on it. The thunb drives in the USB port eliminates the need for CD'S.

I ripped the CDs using Windows Media Player, mostly in .mp3 format, to my "my Music folder". A folder with the CD title was created for each CD with the individual song as a file in that folder. I then copied the CD folder to the SDRAM and the player sorted it out and played the music. It will also accept a USB thumb drive, but the SDRAM takes up less phsical space.

You can get a micro USB (male) to USB (female) adapter from Amazon for about $6 and add external devices. I am formatting a DVD thru an external drive via the adapter right now. You can access your music CD's and rip to Music.

The USB uses a 44.1KHz, 16 bit DAC therefore producing CD quality sound; most likely this is what your computer uses as well. You may use either.

The USB on this player only supports USB flash drives such as thumb drives and jump drives. It does not support standard USB hard drives.Playable formats are FAT16 and FAT32, it can not play NTFS, HFS, andHFS+.The maximum number of playable folders is 99 and the maximum number of playable/recordable files is 2000. Do not use a USB hub between this CD player and the USB flash drive. Hope this helps.Regards,Hung

Hello Mergo, thank you for your interest in Magnasonic. Yes you can play MP3's from disc, sd card and USB 1. & 2.0 flash drives.

It sounds to me like you are talking about burning an MP3 disc, a disc with MP3's burned directly as data files instead of converting them to cd audio files. Yes, in that case you can get a couple of hundred songs on a cd compared to about 20 with a normal audio cd. With this receiver, you can save MP3's and other audio file types on a flash drive and plug it in to the USB port and not have to use any discs at all. I read that other people have been also able to use external hard drives!

Sorry, but the cited Onkyo unit does NOT appear to be able to read USB/Thumb Drive storage. I was specifically looking for this function when I purchased the Yamaha. The Yamaha was the *Only* CD player that had the ability to read audio (either MP3 or WAV) files from a USB drive that was available (in its price range or below) at Amazon. The sound quality of the Onkyo unit was therefore not even an issue since it would not read all the media types I wanted to play. The Yamaha conveniently supports this function without fuss, as others have observed.

I don't entirely understand the question, but I'll give you my scenario. I have an old computer that was built in 2002, it has a 40 Gb hard drive that is partitioned, and it runs USB 1.1. I also have a new Dell Vista machine where my main iTunes library is stored, that is at a different location so networking isn't an option. I wanted to back up my music, and I wanted to play it on the old machine, so I bought one of these drives for that. Now I don't have to use 16 (or so, I think the actual capacity is 15.something Gb) Gb of space on that tiny hard drive, I can use the USB drive for all my music. It opened up the space on the old hard drive so I don't have to duplicate the music files there. ITunes reads just fine from the flash drive over USB 1.1; it took some work to copy all the files into iTunes from the flash drive though and get it all set up. As long as the drive letter stays the same, iTunes can find the music any time that flash drive is plugged in and play directly from it. I hope this helps.
