Review of Sony MiniDisc player

Multi-functional, value for money MD player

Advantages: Easy to use, a nice range of features, excellent value for money
Disadvantages: Only comes with digital connector, you have to buy an analogue cable

This is an excellent value for money MD player. Compact unit, powered by one AA battery, it's small and light and that's what attracted my to it, slips easily into your pocket. It's very easy to use (and I was a complete beginner to mini discs) and a quick look through the manual teaches you as much as you'll ever use, although it's probably simple enough to work out by just messing about with it. It has several excellent features, notably it's ...
...you already have a MD home system. It can record at normal, and long play 2x and 4x compression (2x is standard, you can get more on a disc but it doesn't affect the sound quality. You can synch the recording to whatever you're recording from, and add track marks (or remove them!) wherever you fancy. The G-Protection (to stop skipping) has been excellent, my discs have never jumped or skipped. It also has a handy Mega Bass function. There's also ...

Disadvantages: limited storage

...plus transformed. From the Sony Stage software 2.1, also a direct transmission with PCM sound should be possible. The Sony Stage software is to be served very simply. CD very simply can be balanced out and can be transferred then to the Players connected at the USB Port. A simple Burner software is include also, singe directly records that that the CD, without that they must be balanced out not until the software. Normal Minidiscs become umformatiert ...
...The Sony MZ-NH700 can be furnished with normal Alkaline battery (Mignon) or the enclosed rechargeable battery with current for underway. The loading of the rechargeable battery goes relatively quickly (ca. 60 minutes). These "holds" would be also several hours, it then, the device is connected to the PC and singe be transmitted. Connect then rather the network device. I only can say that Sony with this device is arrive a grandiose gem. Hi-MD with ...

Review of Sony MiniDisc recorder

I love my MD player

Advantages: Great sound quality
Disadvantages: Battery life is a bit limited

Looks This is an attactive MD. It has the screen at a jaunty 45 degree angle, which I find pleasing, and the buttons are all easy to use. It comes with a remote control, which is also useful, and has it's own screen, so you can still see the track titles etc when the main player is in a case. Cost I was given this MD as a present a year ago, but I believe they are currently about £60. I think this is great value for money, as you get a good range ...
...with software (PC and MAC compatible) to put downloads onto mini discs, which is especially helpful, and can also be used as a medium to play music on your computer. I find the software itself easy to use when I am recording and transfering things. You can use it to record from CDs as well as from downloads, and it is pretty quick. It makes naming tracks a lot less fiddly as you canjust type all the information in on the computer rather than using ...

Sharp MD MT877H - MiniDisc recorder

Advantages: Small, light, good battery life
Disadvantages: small buttons, poor instructions

...of MP3 songs, and the Sharp records them no problem. This is useful for people like myself who's music library is now mainly in MP3 format. In long play mode, you can easily record 25+ tracks. As a mature university student I also use the Sharp to record lectures, just plug in a mic and press record. The recorder comes complete with a mains power adaptor, docking/charging station, re-chargable battery, and a clip on battery box which holds 1 AA ...
...headphones included are not up to much, but you can unplug them from the remote control lead and use good quality headphones if you wish. This model is no longer manufactured, but you can still pick them up used and new on places like ebay. Its a dinky little thing, a real "toy for a boy" and well worth buying, and its low weight and size combined with good battery life is great for someone like me who is an active hill walker, and enjoys listening ...
