    I was clearing out a cupboard in the downstairs toilet when i came across a box I had put there a year or twelve ago and in that box was the Z-555 which i could not locate ,So i am posting a couple of pictures of it running of the mains with. 9V connector. I bought it for parts and repair for £125 according to the price on the box and I sent it off to a sony engineer I know in London for repair which I think cost me £50 .It is stiill working and the sound is very nice indeed although i am not sure which is the best mode to use .At the minute it is on surround sound.

    I also found in the box 10 Sony DD in various colours which I recall I bought from a german Seller for I think it was. £90 , They were all working when I last tested them save one has a clicking sound as I put a note to this effect in its case .Quite a good find I am glad to say

    Meanwhile in Philip's safe there in nothing but Toilet Paper :lollegs:

    I have to say that with the twin illuminated LCDs that is the most upmarket Discman I have ever seen
