Thanks for sharing this. Having bought a reproduction boombox with probably the same cassette mechanism inside it as these portable stereos I have...
Certainly a bigger problem with these wretched leaking electrolytic caps is damage they can cause to the traces. Is a big issue with Aiwas P...
This is a weird belt path. I admire your perseverance on all of the restoration challenges. I'm also a fan of these early wireless models but...
Yes that gear may have broken completely. I discovered recently a hairline crack in one of my D6 in that gear. There are replacement gears but...
Oh nice one. I was looking for the rear panel shot. What's on it?
Hello MD Walkman enthusiasts. I've encountered a problem getting the HiMD EH70 player apart. Removing the four case screws doesn't seem to be it....
Yeah. Like the boomboxes. They look like something out of the late 70's but ultimately disappointing with poor bass response and clunky cassette...

Hi, The auto stop feature on WM-D6 and WM-D6C models is only activated when in Play and Record mode. I was intrigued by your SN. I am used to 5...

Well let me add a bit to this thread. I have 4 of the soft touch Aiwa models from 1985. Beautiful looking players with features Sony were years...
Well unfortunately the Walkman prices now are quite high. Have not been in Germany since 2014 but loved going to Eastern parts of Berlin because...
