MEDIA PLAYER WITH MONITOR

Great — since you want a media-player with a visible monitor / display (so you can see playlists, track info, etc) to use with your stereo system and loudspeakers, here are some brands & model types that fit well — and a few things to check especially for Nigeria availability. I can also check local Nigerian stores for availability/pricing if you like.

✅ Brands/Models to consider

Here are some good picks which have display screens and are built for hi-fi / stereo systems:

  • Denon DNP-800NE Network Audio Player — this one has a “three-line OLED display” so you can see track info etc.
  • Zidoo Neo Alpha / Neo S series — these have large (5-inch OLED) high-definition displays. For example Neo S: “5-inch OLED HD display with touch screen … intelligent music library” etc.
  • HiFi Rose RS250A Network Audio Streamer — this has an “8.8-inch touchscreen” built in.

🔍 What you should check (esp. for Nigeria / local use)

Since you're in Nigeria (Ikeja, Lagos) it’s good to verify:

  1. Power / Voltage Compatibility – Ensure the unit supports the local mains voltage (220-240 V) and that shipping/import duties are accounted for.
  2. Output Connections – The player should have analogue stereo out (RCA) or digital out that you can plug into your amplifier/receiver (which drives your loud speakers).
  3. Screen & UI – Check the size & clarity of the display (some might only show small 3-line text, others show full album art). If you want to browse playlists easily, go for something with a larger screen + UI.
  4. Local availability / Import logistics – Some of the high-end models may need to be imported; check local-Nigerian dealers or whether the brand has presence in Lagos.
  5. Audio quality / Format support – If you’ll play FLAC, WAV, etc lossless formats, ensure the player supports them. The ones above do.
  6. Budget + Service / Support – High-end displays + features = higher cost; also check if there’s service/spare parts (if needed) locally.

If you like, I can scan for 2-3 specific models (with display screens) that are currently in stock in Lagos/Nigeria (or available for shipping to Nigeria), and pull approximate pricing. Would you like me to do that?


Great — here are two credible retailers in Lagos plus some specific product recommendations you can explore. Be sure to check stock & shipping details.

🏬 Retailers in Lagos

  1. HiFiNaija Audio Technologies Ltd.

    • Location: 15 Adeola Odeku Street, Victoria Island, Lagos.
    • Also listed: Sound City Electronics, 3 Allen Avenue, Ikeja, Lagos and Premium Audio Hub, 24B Admiralty Way, Lekki Phase 1, Lagos.
    • Why good: Specialises in high-fidelity audio gear including network/media players (“the world’s finest digital audio … from brands like Marantz, Yamaha, Denon, Naim, Arcam, Cambridge”).
    • Tip: Ask them if they have a demo unit of the model you're interested in so you can view the screen/monitor and user interface.

  2. HIFI NG Audio Ltd.

    • This is more specialised for premium speakers and hi-end gear.
    • Location info from website (they operate in Lagos).
    • Why good: They offer service/support (retailer warranty) and cater for serious audio setups — good if you’re going for something high quality.
    • Tip: Even if they don’t stock the exact model, they might import for you or recommend a parallel import.

📦 Product recommendations (with display/monitor)

Here are some models you might consider. You’ll need to check with the retailer whether they have them in-stock locally or can import them.

Here’s a quick summary of each:

  • : Big hi-res colour screen for album artwork and playlists. Excellent if you want a great display + streamer.
  • : Very capable network player, with 3-line OLED display, WiFi/Bluetooth, good for streaming + screen display.
  • : Slightly more affordable option, still good features, though may have smaller/more modest display.
  • : Compact size, still network capable. If space is tight or budget smaller, this might work.
  • : Update version of CXN line; still premium. Screen and features high end.
  • : Entry-level network player from Denon with display. Good stepping stone.
  • : Portable player with touchscreen display. If you want a monitor/display and then feed into your stereo via line out or DAC it’s possible—but less ideal for full-home system.
  • : Similar to above, slightly more budget.

🎯 My suggestion given your situation

Since you are in Ikeja/Lagos and you want a player with a display/monitor for playlists and so on, I would suggest:

  • Go to HiFiNaija (Victoria Island) and ask them to show you the CXN100 and DNP-800NE models (or equivalent) and check the display size, UI, screen readability from your listening position.
  • Decide your budget. These network players (especially high end) will cost more than basic media players.
  • Ensure the player has line-out (RCA) or balanced outputs so it connects to your stereo amplifier or powered loudspeakers.
  • Ask about warranty / import support because some models may be imported and support may be limited locally.
  • Confirm voltage/plug compatibility, shipping/import fees, customs in Nigeria.

If you like, I can check current approximate pricing in Nigeria (NGN) for 2-3 of those models (CXN100, DNP-800NE, AXN10) and see where they are in stock regionally. Would that be helpful?


Here are approximate current prices for a couple of very good media-players with display/monitor (for playlists etc.). Note: I couldn’t find local Nigerian retail prices for all models, so many are international references — you’d need to add import/shipping/customs and local markup.

🔍 Models & Approximate Prices

Here’s a breakdown with commentary:

  • : Priced about RM 6,199 (Malaysian ringgit) in one listing. Converting roughly (just illustrative) RM6,199 ≈ USD 1,300, which in Nigerian Naira (depending on exchange rate, e.g. ~₦1,500/USD) could mean ~₦1,950,000 plus shipping/import.
  • : One listing shows RM4,099. That’s around USD 890 or so; again in Naira maybe ~₦1,300,000+ some.
  • : More modest price: RM2,999 in one listing. That’s about USD 650 or so; maybe ~₦1,000,000+ incl. shipping/import.
  • : Price in one Nigerian-import listing ~ ₦2,674,483. Gives a local reference albeit for a different model.
  • (Other repeat listings of the above give similar ballpark values.)

✅ My Estimate for Nigeria

Given shipping/import costs, duties and local markup, you should expect for these types of units in Lagos/Nigeria:

  • Mid-level (AXN10): around ₦900,000 to ₦1,200,000
  • Higher end (DNP-800NE): around ₦1,200,000 to ₦1,600,000
  • Top display colour screen (CXN100): around ₦1,800,000 to ₦2,500,000 or more

⚠️ Caveats & Tips

  • The shown prices are international, not specific Nigerian store prices, so local availability may vary.
  • Import & shipping add cost; custom duties & VAT in Nigeria may add ~10-30% depending on classification.
  • Exchange rate fluctuations are significant in Nigeria — check current USD/NGN rate.
  • Local warranty/support might be limited for imports; check with retailer if they stock the model locally.
  • Ask the retailer clearly: “display/monitor size & resolution”, “playlist browser UI”, and check it in-person if possible.

If you like, I can check two specific Lagos-based dealers and ask them for current in-store prices in Naira for e.g. the DNP-800NE and AXN10, and send you contact details. Would you like me to do that?

The Solemnity of the Annunciation of the Lord: Day 31 of the Lenten Fast: "The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you" Scripture 1st Reading: Is7:10-14;8:10; Responsorial Psalm: Ps40:7-11; 2nd Reading: Heb10:4-10; Gospel Acclamation: Jn1:14; Gospel: Lk1:26-38 The height of God's engagement At the appointed time, decided by God in His inscrutable wisdom, after humanity had been under the throes of sin and death, and satan had held sway from the foundation of the world, God acted and brought relief and remedy to beleaguered and traumatized humanity. This was the highest expression of the love of God; it was God assuring us that He had not forgotten humanity and that He was prepared to apply the greatest remedy for our collective shame and fall from grace to grass, from holiness to sin.

My Nightly Fellowship with the Celestial Angels and Saints of the Sacred Sound - An aspect of the Sleepwalker Notes. Dedicated to :ELDER BENSON IDONIJE

So, I was relaying the story that the great, gentle bearded one told me. I had almost forgotten about it because I got tied to many earthly things. In fact, I haven't been able to go beyond the lowest firmament lately. So, there was nothing to remind me of it. The bearded one told me of the days of the Big Apple and of John. That John the father was such a great influence. He told me about other cats he looked up to and how they helped to shape him into a Pharaoh. He told me about others in line. He told me about Albert. He told me about Olatunji Concert and the Afrocentric atmosphere in the land. Afterwards things got better, then worse, then better again. Life was good and challenging. He mentioned his eternal rescue for peace and tranquility in a turbulent world. He talked about spirituality and sublimeness. He was always close to his maker. He spoke of the years of rashness, of boisterousness and belligerence, and of exacerbations and exhilarations, especially on set. He rememb...
