Old receiver, need more inputs

Hello,
I have an old Marantz 2285b and it has 1 AUX. Currently I have an Sangean HD Tuner hooked up to it but now I need an input for a CD player.
One idea is to hook up an Audio/Video multi switch and connect both the CD Player and HD Tuner to that.
Any better ideas?
Any advise is appreciated.

Doesn't it have any other line level inputs?

Have you tried using a Tape input?

There should be a tape monitor button from the front. There should also be a tape monitor input in the back. The tape monitor should have two sets of rca inputs. One set in and one set out. Plug your cd into the tape monitor/in set of rca. Make sure when you play your cd, you push the tape monitor button in or to on. You may also want to switch the tuner (aux) versus the cd (tape) inputs depending on whether you use the cd more or the tuner more. Enjoy.
