See for yourself in the service manual. Colin (This does not compute) took a R37 apart and it has the 4M chip: [MEDIA] See the chip with print...
Correct, the button layout is horrendous with a few of them on the bottom of the unit. I do believe it is only the US version has 40 seconds...
On the topic of Knight Rider.. In the first episode of season 3 (Knight of the Drones), this apparatus is shown - it a transformer :) It is...
That must depend on the version, since one had 16Mbit and one only 4Mbit. I have the R37 and will try to find out how much cache it has this week...
I can’t find the service manual of this particular model, but I noticed that my favorite Sony Walkman uses the tape mechanism of the EX911. I...
Thanks @Longman for the additional background information. I meanwhile found evidence of a certain type of compression with G-Protection set to 2...
Not sure if this is true for all MD players though. As example, a 80 minute disc formatted for HI-MD use can hold 300MB of music, compressed ATRAC...
Old but good posted a video, in which he compares several CD and cassette portables. The Sanyo Espera EP-7 ultra thin Walkman, and also a Sanyo...
MiniDisc portables and Discmans are very similar, except for the write head present in the MiniDisc recorders. In some early MD units 4Mbit DRAM...
Biphonic? Is this achieved by positioning individual speakers?
Wow, great find! Dolby C noise reduction, sweet!
I’m not sure actually, the PX1000 is a top model that was meant to compete with top Sony Walkmans. Hence I have never seen it in real life and...
Not just Philips.. I have 3 Sharp MiniDisc portables that all suffer from a cracked, tiny gear. Supposedly press fit on the sled axle, but after...
I have a PX557 with remote @Eternity , would you be interested?
The little MD player looks a bit lost..
I wonder what the efficiency of the solar panel and charging circuit was back then @Mister X . At the rate that the DD series is draining...
Attached are a number of catalogs, released by Sony in Japan. Also included in the catalogs are portable CD players, Network Players (MP3 + ATRAC)...
In August 2008 Sony released a catalog in Japan that included 5 cassette Walkmans: WM-EX651, WM-GX788, WM-GX410, WM-GX202, WM-FX202. [ATTACH]
In the later units you can 'occasionally' see the disc spinning (see my post about the E710). These are so optimised that they fill the cache as...
I did buy a unit with the center gear broken. Although I researched it before, most ‘evidence’ pointed in the direction of a simple belt...
