Does the CDR-220 play CD-RW discs?
 
Good morning all,

I currently have a CR-220 (cassette) and CD changer. I'm thinking about buying a used CDR-220 and adding a 3.5mm AUX input for a phone/ipod, etc.

I'm curious if anyone has tried playing rewritable CDs in the CDR-220? The changer doesn't support them (I've tried), so I'm curious about the in-dash player and whether it does or not.

Thanks in advance,
Craig

I have used CD-R's in the CDR-220. :cheers:

Thanks, rick3000. Yes, the changer also plays CD-Rs, which is handy for burning custom discs for specific playlists, etc. However, it will not play CD-RWs, rewritable CDs. This is kind of a bummer if you want to modify the playlist -- you have to burn a new disc and throw the prior one away.

If it can play CD-RWs, that would be golden. Any luck with those?

I never tried a CD-RW, and I stopped using CD's a while ago.

Also, I think the AUX input and the CD changer use the same input. Double check, but I don't think you can have both unless you add the AUX by another means like splicing into the antenna connection.
