unlike some Denons, for Sony Discmans IR sensors and remotes had to be purchased separately I was so impressed by the weirdness of Toshiba docking stations (like TAC-210) that made a few for my own collection. Provides regulated 9V for the Discman and incorporates IR sensor Sony D-250 playing some oldies: and here is the most reviewed Discman EVER (Optimus CD-3400), playing some newer oldies: now trying to determine if M'pingo Disc at its most effective with logo facing Up or Down and before you ask - Yes, by now I have a few working Dick Sequerra PS1 power stations for CD-3400
The IR remote only works when the Discman is powered from an external AC supply. It took me a while to give up and read the manual to discover that my DM-1K was fine it just doesn't work when running your Discman on batteries
Silverera. You're probably right. Never looked it up. Only use the Discmans at home using the AC adaptor.
