Media players will usually be added to an amplifier in an already-existing setup. By adding a media player to your setup, you then have access to many more connection options such as extra line inputs, mic inputs, Bluetooth, USB/SD card and FM radio. Having these different options for playback is helpful because you will be able to connect most devices like smartphones, CD players, USB sticks and laptops to your system.
A media player is mostly used to play digital media from external devices such as USB sticks. You can make your own playlists using MP3 files, store it onto a USB stick or SD card, and then plug this device into the media player so it will play the files in the order you have saved them.
Another useful feature that you will find on most of our media players is a microphone input. As media players are mostly used in a commercial setting, the mic input is convenient because it allows you to plug in a wired microphone to make announcements and/or sing along to any music being played.
Although the many inputs and connections are useful, perhaps the standout feature on a lot of our media players is Bluetooth connectivity due to how convenient it is. This is great if you aren't using the player with a device that is constantly plugged into it, as you can connect your smartphone, laptop or tablet as and when you please.
