@therealmccoykoi Are you sure you are dealing with a short ? The fact that lifting the board a little brings the sound back can also be an...
REASSEMBLY: - put the spring back into the latch; - put the latch back onto the case, it will sit at an angle, because the spring is not...
This thread covers how to remove the cover on SONY WM-DD series walkmans: this includes the WM-D3, but also WM-2 and WM-5 (which are not DD, but...
Given what you say, it is likely that this is a common problem. The fact that it's only at the beginning of reverse indicates a mechanical...
That is why it's better to measure the wow&flutter. That way we can make a clear assesment if that is a problem or not. This may or may not be...
And what is your main problem ? The fact that speed is higher ? Isn't that adjustable by a trimpot ?
@Raul Although this is not a solution to your problem, I would be curious to know what high wow&flutter means in terms of actual figure. WFGUI can...
In the picture you posted, all 3 parts seem to look a little bit different, but the 2 on the top seem more similar than the bottom one. Of course,...
@Emiel I would not worry about one of these. The power is just too low to be of a real concern. I was stating the legal stuff just for reference,...
Laws in regard to radio require transmitters to be tested to comply with regulatory standards and have a certification which proves that. The...
@Silver965 I do have a feeling that FM radio will become a thing of the past at some point. The good thing about 88-108Mhz is the frequencies are...
Looks in mint condition, also having the remote sensor. I see a leather case underneath it, is that for the D-250 ? Mine has a carrying case, but...
By "tape selector" I suppose you mean the tape in switch, which detects a cassette is inserted, no ? I would clean that first (Kontakt 60), just...
Very good point @Silver965 ! In my view, the best ones in terms of ergonomy are going to be the slim ones. Would also consider how well one fits...
Certainly true. Just the 20kHz frequency response alone won't make a walkman better, but when combined with flatness over the entire spectrum, low...
My opinion is DDs are not necessarily the best sounding or the best walkmans ever made in general. That's not to say they don't sound very good,...
The information is clearly incorrect, because the first walkman that has strong ties with the TPS-L2 is the WM-3. It happens that the WM-3 also...
Some of the custom made SONY ICs can be sourced for repairing the walkmans. But I'll give a simple example, the notorious CX20084 used in many...
I do remember the gigahertz race with CPUs. That is a much more complex matter, as the specific arhitecture of the CPU will matter to a...
I undertand what you are stating and I agree: doing measurements is not important for the end user. And he/she shouldn't need to do any...
