If your Bose has an AUX input, you could try buying just a CD or DVD player (no speakers or amp) and plug it into the AUX. That way you could keep most of the Bose sound you love.

Just curious, but can't you load your CDs onto a phone or table and bluetooth with the Bose?  Not sure when Bose added bluetooth.

My Bose radio is fairly new and I guess it works okay but I dislike it so much I rarely turn it on.  It's kind of a moot issue because not only is the instrument obsolete, so is radio itself.  In my area there's one classical music station, which I tired of.  All the rest are C&W, rock, Mexican, or religious,  all genres in which I'm not interested.  Nothing middle-of-the-road listenable music anymore.

Wow, I'm surprised to hear of all the issues. Bose was the premier brand back in the 70's.  It was really high end with excellent sound. I guess the quality has gone down over the years as it does with a lot of brands,

The device in question was old.  Everything eventually stops working and CD players are notorious for failing.
