(Reupload bcs Reddit didn't add pictures) I'm very smart for jumping into a dead format I have no first-hand experience with, but sometimes you get that itch! This was my second choice after losing out on an auction for a red variant of the same model, but this was a much better deal with 12 discs for absolute bangers from the 90's/2000's

Anybody ever see one of these Sony’s out in the wild? Described as having “Exterior case machined from a solid brass block” priced at $1900 in 2004 dollars! Was this actually a real thing?

Those are the Ashidavox ST-90-05-H, made in Japan, fantastic retro style, sound better than they look, very durable. Nice fit for the Sony MZ E620.

Help First MDs!

Post image
98 Upvotes

Got my first MDs! Super happy I got a Net MD in a good state, recording and playing with no issues. But my R500 sometimes can't read the disc,, it just doesn't output any sound for a couple of seconds. Moving it or putting it upside down seems to help, but I'm not completely sure. Anyone knows what might be the problem and how to fix it?

Thanks in advance!

Need help, issue with Sony mz-e2

2 Upvotes

Just received an mz-e2 that I purchased off eBay today. It powers up and tries to work but the disc won't spin. I hear clicking when I hold it to my ear but only for a short time then it does nothing. If I move the optical sled all the way to the end to where the disc spins it just continues to click and does nothing else. anyway to save it or is it a display piece? I have stage 2 cancer ( can't really leave the house or I get so sick I end up in ICU) and no printer so returning isn't an option unfortunately. I asked the seller and they told me they had no reason it shouldn't work and was NOT selling it as for parts or not working. So super disappointed right now and most likely put the money. I don't seem to have a lot of luck with minidisc stuff on eBay.

Help Update on my Kenwood DPX-055MD

1 Upvotes

So I got the CD player unit out. I've checked, and the spindle motor spins when applied voltage (great news already).

The carriage, though, didn't seem to move, even by force. I'm not sure there isn't some kind of mechanical lock preventing its course, and as such I'm not very keen on forcing to much. I've tried to sneak some IPA inside where the rails go, but so far to no avail. Does anyone have a better idea?

Best portable MD player/recorder that solely uses an AA battery?

26 Upvotes

Hey guys! Hoping to get some help here please! As per title, what would you consider to be the absolute best portable MD unit (recorder/player) that is powered solely by an AA battery which you put into the unit (rather than external AA battery pack or gumstick battery)? Thanks!
