If you are going to buy just one, clearly the TC-D5M is the one to go for. I would choose that one especially for the build quality, it feels much...
I remember reading about a battery holder, but it is rare. I think it was sold separately from the unit itself and it's likely not that many were...
@Jorge @rcpilot23 I absolutely love these exotic colors ! White and red are particularly vibrant. There is one red D-50 on ebay ($1300...
It was a microphone jack indeed. The mechanism of the TCM-600 is extremely similar to the TPS-L2. It's more the electronics that are different,...
Hi Willie, What you are stating here is a common problem on this type of mechanism (it's found in other SONY models besides WM-150). The bad news...
Welcome to the forum, @Willie B.
@ Jorge That JVC XL-R10 definitely looks good ! I am already making a wishlist. I have already a very long list of walkmans and blank cassette...
Thank you so much, @Jorge ! It's so much great information, I need some time to look at all those units. That Technics SL-XP5 is indeed to grab...
Hi Moonraker ! Please post a picture with the pinch roller and eventually make some measurements (outer diameter, height, inner diameter). It's...
I have found 2 reviews made by @walkman archive and seems that his TPS-L2 (also restored) is on par with my measurements: 0.219% WRMS....
Hello to everybody, I recently discovered my audio CD collection is starting to grow and because I like small portable devices so much (I'm...
Being honest, I did not expect that. It seems a very basic boombox. It leads to the possibilty that the original belts may be of much better...
I see. In general, I would expect decks and boomboxes to have better wow&flutter due to one particular reason: they tend to have bigger and hence...
Let me state some: the SONY WM-3, SONY WM-7, SONY WM-EX5, SONY WM-B603, AIWA HS-PC202 MKIII, Toshiba KT-4176, Toshiba KT-S3, Panasonic RQ-S25,...
Please post the link with the 220uF ones. Last time I checked they only had UMA0J221MDD, which are 8mm in diameter and will not fit in some places.
That's interesting... I would be curious to make more measurements on different units using a professional tape. 0.07% is pretty low for a...
This one seems to be a 3mm or 5mm LED, which clearly won't fit, it's just too big. The long pin is the ANODE (A), the short pin is the CATHODE...
@CDV The values I am talking about are based on measurements I have done myself using a non-professional test tape (in reality the values are...
There are 2 sources that I would recommend regarding belts: fixyouraudio.com and Deck Tech on ebay. Have no experience regarding CPC and donberg,...
I saw that thread before, now I remember. From what I know and have seen on devices that I own, SonicStage is only required for converting wav to...
