Hi all This is "fun" to work on, the board and mech being impossible to separate more than a few mil without invasive surgery. So with long...
Hi enryfox, I am running SonicStage on Windows 10 64-bit with drivers I found for my MZ-RH1. Caveat: I have not found any drivers for other...
I'm guessing everyone knows Hifi Engine and Hifi Manuals and Manuals Center and the like. I recently had to go elsewhere and found...
One common thing I am finding with mains+battery machines is that the AC input socket and its internal switch needs to be stripped down and...
Good news in case anyone is following this :-) and thanks for encouragement... the wee machine is back in one piece; everything is working just...
Hey Hugo, just a quick update on this: I spent a few days disassembling my CT93, found the two cracked solder points (pins 50 and 51 off the...
I used the preview image from that site to guide the rest of the disassembly, lifted the main board then reconnected the battery holder with a...
Hi A O, I agree it's packed tight! And thanks for the link; I was hoping to avoid buying anything but maybe 4.99 is worth it. They have some...

Thanks for your advice. The idlers are visually OK and feel OK with a gentle thumbnail press. I don't know how else to verify that. The four FF...
Hi all I haven't been a regular poster on S2G so here's an excuse to do so. I recently acquired a full Aiwa 22 series "mini compo" stereo: P22...
Ah! The classic MZ-R50, a legendary machine. I confess I still own 4 of them and they, along with 3 MZ-RH1 machines and about a zillion MDs, are...
I digitized my entire vinyl and tape collection using minidisc. The rationale was: it's cheap; it used gear I already had; it's much easier adding...
Most people throw away the beautiful packaging that comes with hifi components. A few don't and we should honor them in some way! But for those of...
Just on the 'digital out' aspect, it looks like the MZ-1 was Sony's only portable with that feature. My primary use of MD was digitizing my vinyl...
