N@Z 0 Report post Posted June 22, 2003 No need to hit the drinks bcos of that! At least you didn't bid on something & got sniped at the last minute by so overzealous Head-Fi collector. Guy it's more of a collector's item because of it's pristine condition. It is supposed to have fairly good quality sound for a portable. There is another one (Sony Walkman) but I didn't save the link. Hif-Fi magazines raved about it having sound quality comparable with full sized decks. No not the Sony Walkman Pro, there was another one before that. About the size of half of a VHS video tape. I'll post the link if I come across it again. Last bid for it was over Sterling 40.00 & still going. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

N@Z 0 Report post Posted June 22, 2003 Not better than the best, but as good as the entry level ones. (Not referring to the Bodo Khan) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
N@Z 0 Report post Posted June 22, 2003 I remember the model of that Sony Walkman now, it's the DC-2 (No link, I think the auction has ended so no longer listed). It looks totally different to the Sony Walkman Pro D6C which I used to own, similar to this auction. It makes very good recordings especially on the TDK SA(-X) & exceptional recordings on TDK MA-XG. I'd categorise it as transportable as the unit is fairly chunky compared to MD recorders! The reason I got rid of it was my particular unit had an insatiable appetite for chewing up my expensive tape collection (problem with the rubber pinch roller). So enough is enough & I traded it in for a Nakamichi Cassette Deck 2 (CD-2). Which performed flawlessly even now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
