Sony WM-F501

I must say that this Walkman is definitely on my top ten favorite Walkmans. With that Dynamic Bass Boost on Max, a Metal or Chrome tape, and my Sony MDR-D777...awesome sound. It is quite heavy too with the battery and a tape in it, not to mention the all-metal case. I'm pretty sure it's a low Serial # too. Enjoy the pics.

If I can get my camera going, I'll post some pix of the bastard sister, the WM-F502, with some uniquely useless features...

Never seen a white one before, that looks very clean. Same guts as the famous transparent walkman.

Wow that is a nice unit.  Does yours work?  I think I may have finally found the correct belt size for it.  This unit doesn't use the same belt as the Sony WM-100 series, it's a little longer.  The Mega Bass makes this walkman sound great.

 

As far as over all quality, this walkman kicks an ipod's butt.
