Portable PA with CD player

[fiza]

Anyone recommend a good portable PA system that comes with a built in CD player? Needed by PE Dept for outside use. Must be loud.

Budget can make a lot of difference here. I haven't heard modern Coomber stuff, but it has always been robust:

I don't think such a beast exists any more - it's all ipod docks and solidstate players... the best I can come up with is this thing... QR15PA - QTX SOUND - PORTABLE PA SYSTEM, 15" 100W RMS | CPC

 

which allows you to plug anything else into it, so a battery portable cd player or similar.

 

Although, this is available. I would see if you can get one to try first as it may not be loud enough... http://adastra.avsl.com/product/952.409UK

No built in CD player, but again you can plug one in to it:

Similar to the portable sounds systems you can get from Maplins and similar, but has a proper XLR audio-out port as well as inputs, so you can daisy-chain it to as many speakers as you need to fill the space. It's pretty powerful by itself (it does our small-ish hall by itself, no problem) and comes with a mic input and one included mic, so for basic situations you don't need a whole rack of kit. It has a built-in battery which, after a good year or so's use out of them now, seem to be holding up well, giving two or three hours of usage, no problem.

No wheels on that one.

The QTX might do. I will try to convince them that they dont need a CD player as you can use IPODS etc.
