In my opinion, the MZ-NH900 is the most robust minidisc out there, it's HiMD, can run on gumstick or AA or DC, has an lcd screen, plenty of buttons, a regular USB B port. It's just a complete package.

Best items to use cassette tapes omnibot 2000, boombox, and a Sony Walkman

Funny because i am listening to this on my Denon Mission speakers, same as in video. My Denon goes through a Yamaha surround system av input.

Hi noticed that you have a Sony MZR 30 MD. I have one too but the battery pack included doesn't keep the charge anymore. I was wondering if there was a way of getting a similar battery pack online which won't blow up my device as I know there are cheap knock of versions that could be dangerous. Thank you.

I need this

what's the difference from REC and CD SYNC????

can I pause a minidisc recording from cd to add another cd song to carry on recording??? thanks

Thank you! I just came across my old minidisc player but could only listen to it with little corded earphones.

11:39 thats the tape my parents had they remember getting a box of 10 for £6.99

My parent's where teenagers in the 80s they have over 100 tapes mostly recorded on a Sunday with the top 40. I got into cassettes in 2006 when i was 11 we did have internet but it was painfully slow so recording vinyl or cds to cassette was the way I made my mix tapes. Can remember using a Sony walkman with them good times.

What was the song on the first test??

how to ERASE the MD music and RECORD different Music on it????

At age 13 I fixed an MZ R55 with a small crumb of bread and super glue. It fell by accident in the mechanism and it fixed the problem with the MD couldn't read the disc.

could not find any of those, instead got the N910 and N920 :)

IPA will clean pots but can also leave them feeling scratchy and rough as you will wash out the factory lube along with the stuff causing it to jump. Try a clean and lube product like Deoxit Fader F5 or one of its cheaper competitors. And don’t pull the pot apart. You should be able to get the stuff in there through a hole in the pot. Break a leg!

Thanks I learnt a trick or two from you 👌🏻

Some rare gems you have there. Those AXIA MD J'z are fantastic. I have the 'lightbulb' motif, 'apple' motif and 'zig zag' motif but the others are missing to make my collection complete. I really like the Sony Lumina and the Axia Hello Kitty. Great collection.

I think everything Elftone was cheap and a bit crummy. I remember doing a few jobs at Elftone's office in Beresford Av, Wembley in early 90s. They were actually opposite Binatone's office, the other purveyor of cheapo products.

Hello. How much did one cost? I ask because I bought a sealed EAGLE C-15 similar to yours on March 2, 2020 and it cost me 16.63 euros plus shipping at that time. I bought it just for those metal rollers and not for the tape in it, which is a bit crappy. It has bad mechanism also. But I have to admit it looks good. And so do yours.

This is a very good deck. I have a KX-3030, and the recording quality is excellent.

i have a sony wm ex 506 and i have exactly the same problem. when i bought it a month ago the pinch roller for the A side had a groove so the wow and flutter was terrible. i have ordered from aliexpress new pinch rollers, it came in bag with 5 pinch rollers. the wow and flutter improved a lot but still its much too high. the B side plays fine. i hope you can tell me where i can get the correct pinch rollers. the pinch roller of your walkman and mine are the same.

I'm a bit believer in Right to Repair so am not a fan of the design of this device. That said : 1. You could have returned it for a refund. 2. That's not the right tool to open this device ( I've used this tool for 15yrs) 3. You could have easily been more careful and fixed the device without tearing the battery pads off the board, bending the board and damaging soldered chips etc Heating the device with a hair dryer and using a butter knife would have been far more successful. This device is meant to be basically waterproof, so you should expect it to be well sealed. There's plenty of other competing devices that are rechargeable or use CR 2032 replaceable batteries !

I felt a bit sad when you put the R30 away 😂

More of a chance I got the MZ-G750. It does it job

Power protect push power issue

I have got this cassette player and when I press play button the head does not go up unfortunately and unfortunately I don't know why

Congrats!

I'm from the United States. Minidisc didn't take off here. But the format still fascinates me. This video gave me a window into what you could do with a Minidisc.

Hi! does exist some way to get music in a Minidisk if my walkman is not a NET md? Mine is a SonY MZ-R90

Hey, I was just wondering, what are those "adaptor" inputs and those connected to it "rings" used for? Thanks.

I ONCE WANTED TO BUY A MINIDISC COMPILATION BUT IT SAID IT WOULD NOT HOLD THE MEDIA SO I DECIDED FOR A CD 😅

i've just spent ages trying to get a tape to play without being eaten. The old smack trick was the ticket. Many thanks for preserving old knowledge!

I just got one of these, but even after cleaning the sound is disturbed by a LF AM, you may call it choppy as if the speaker was behind a fan. Next step is to calibrate the azimut, but too reach the screws of the head, it seems to be necessary to remove the cassette lid. Any hints for that? Cheers bro.

I would like to try opaque or translucent labels to allow the colors of the minidiscs come through.

Danke für das Video. Habe meine zahlreichen Minidisc mit Hilfe der Druckersoftware von Sony beschriftet. (Das war mit der seinerzeitigen Windows Version. Ob das jetzt mit Windows 11 noch funktioniert habe ich noch nicht probiert.)

thank you for this video, i used the toslink methid and everything went amazin, i can now listen to my fav music on my lil MD walkman ^^

Royal mail are terrible. Cost me £250 this week and lost all mymparcels i sent

Never use WD-40 on anything like this it’s completely the wrong thing !

How to remove a tape that is stuck inside a car cassette player? The eject button fails to eject the tape.

Great review on lifting the toner arm

Had this back 1998. My parents bought it for me from good guys.

Coll idea with minidisc....! Have you tried lp4 mono? You can save hours and hours of computer programs this way. On the other hand the same way you can use mp3 and keep it on pc or smartphone.

That spring goes on the plastic leg that operates the “cover closed” switch

Hi. Great video exactly what l need to do. l have a blank lens and head cleaner disc ! Do you know where l can download the tracks to record to the disc as l only have the blank one thanks in advance
