Olympus did make some great stereo micro cassette players. Although the ones I have never seem to sound really good compared to full size...
What a cool collection! Like the yellow theme a lot. And even the legendary big yellow freaky submarine D8304 is there! Welcome MrRunes7.
Great use of a rapid prototype machine and what a nice design. Indeed classy, great work!
I used YEKS-1 (CD-812). No comments that indicate its the wrong tape :) The Walkman and tape are both from the European market.
What a wonderful article and what nice comments. Also super fun to get to know the story behind the collector. Wonderful initiative to draw...
I really like those brochures. In the past it was so crazy I was collecting as much as boomboxes possible and used the brochures as an important...
From the service manual; TC-D3 for France and UK. WM-D3 for US, CA, etc. [ATTACH]

I don't recognize the boxes. The mono does look a bit Sanyo tho. But I do recognize the Philips VR2021 VCC recorder! The first video-recorder in...
With the FH-3/5/7 the capstan motor isn't running continuously. But they are boxes that are designed to run (for FH7 optional) on batteries. They...
I have no experience with the FH-11 (beautiful machine btw), but in most of these decks there is a part that detects if the spindles are moving....
Here you go ;) Took him out of the box this week for some exercise to keep him fit :) [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
I can confirm this is a great sounding unit. Replacing the belts is a pain. You have to disassemble the whole box to do so. But its worth because...
Open it slowly and see if you can find out what's going on with it. I think it's quite a complicated Walkman to start with. So don't beat yourself...
It looks like an office building! This thing is like 70's architecture. The remote is cool, but also makes the machine very vulnerable to...
