So that is my latest adition, it does eem to be rather rare as there is almost nothing to be found
on the internet!, but I have one now

Super cool Nicolle.
I've never even seen a microcassette walkman in person but I'd snap one up as fast as I could move if I ever see one at the Flea or Thrifts.

Thanks!

Hey, very nice microtape walky!
Congrats!

Other than JVC and Sony, who else made microcassette Walkman style players?

Danke Viennasound :sin:


Most walkman producers did make a microwalkman in the 80s!!

I have 3 brands, sony, olympus and jvc, there is also sanyo and toshiba and aiwa!!, and some fishers which are the same as sanyo!!

maybe some other brands also

Sweet Walkman Nicole-That's so cool with all the accessories!
You have very nice mini's!
Have a great weekend-GB.

hey WG, neat walkman !!! i liked it,

when i was younger, a friend of mine next door, had one like those

i mean a microcassette recorder, was from sony, and it was good as i recall,

but thats not the point,

the fun bit is that we used to record ourselves saying normal or funny things,

talking this and that, in LP, then we played them in SP, we sounded like

squirrels, it was so funnyy

ahah we loved it.

bye!

Nicolle, that is an exceptional walkman you have there! I can't believe a micro-cassette walkman has STEREO inputs! An amazing find and well worth the wait.

Thanks peoples

Yes, when you play it fast it does sound like the smurfs

I yet have to put the foams in fabricsoftener to make them nice and
soft and new again :sin:

It does play well but also a bit dull and the fastforward is rather slow ,
also there is alot of engine noise, as if there is a big engine in there, but
therefore it does not fastforward any faster
