minidisc anyone?

[turbomustang84]

I am a devoted minidisc user and really that is one of the things that got me back into boomboxes ,
as I needed a way to play my portable minidisc players and a boombox with an input seemed like a great solution.
I have almost 2 terabytes of music on my computer in various formats and I am slowly moving them to either HI-MD or MD sp .
my favorite unit is my sony MZ-NH1

someday I will have all my music on Md's or vinyl except for a few cassettes to play with .

yes i love minidisk i have the mz-nh600d hi-md and a mxd-03 home cd minidisk machine i had this one for many years see very little use

when I find a nice vintage Boombox that has a cassette I can not repair I plan to mod it as a docking unit for my HI-MD playerr

Bredgeo did just that on at least one of his boomboxes and it looked and worked really good.

i sold off all the minidisk stuff i had a while ago.
both home units and portables. had some really nice ones too.
i still have a minidisk usb walkman kicking around here in like new shape i never used.it was a great format and it did sound really good i just didnt use it very often tho.

 

[turbomustang84]

I used DCC until that format died ,
I have never had a minidisc unit fail,but I have a drawer full of ipods that have so as long as
I can get discs I will use minidiscs.

That's why I was considering trying a minidisc, they can be found fairly inexpensively.

I think you would love it and you can get started for less than $20 on some of the lesser models.if you can make a deal on a HI-MD unit I think that would be great because 600 songs per disc is quite a plus

 

[MasterBlaster84]

I guess I'll have to put it on my want list and a least try one, thanks Turbo.

 

[monchito]

They sound great.I still have my MZ-N505 TypeR. Cd quality sound and the Sound processor is damn good. The bass is there deep and strong and the AA battery does not suffer from it. Get one Don. You wont be disappointed.


Hey Turbo...I need the drivers for Windows Vista. Any idea where to get it? I looking at the Soy site right now. Sonic stage is installed and now I need the driver..
