The Fisher/Sanyo connection is weird here. Sanyo didn't evolve the format quite as far as Fisher.  Sony learned quite quickly that the micro format wasn't receiving the interest they would have liked and many of these products were very short-lived.  Not sure 'Micro Kangaroo' is a great name though.

 

I have one of these....

Hi !

and thanks for those documents ...

Could it be possible to resend them with a better scan quality ?

As far as I can see signal to noise ratio is pretty poor for every model.

Tape speed (only 2.4) may be a technical limitation...

anyway all those "micro tapes " are very nice

I have only a dictaphone: stereo models are so rare ...

regards

Poor freaquecy response and dynamic range too, the format failed because the tech wasn't there to make it as good as compact cassette. A great shame as these machines and the tapes look really great.

@retro, another fascinating brochure, thanks for sharing!

jmespe, just right click on the images and open in another tab, they will appear sharper.

Hi ! thanks I knew that but even doing so, some text (the small text in blue in the second page) is still unreadable seems like a 100 dpi scan or I was assuming an auto-resize from the site ... regards

Here you go, It's 300 DPI, the site downsamples the images.

Fantastic products. I even spotted a dual cassette BBX with both compact and micro cassette formats (PHM77)...pretty sure I've never seen one of those before . Fairly bonkers yet I imagine useful for editing/archiving. If I saw one going cheap I don't think I could stop myself buying it.
