Hello all, Hugo gave me a great idea to repost my old collection post. I hope you all enjoy the old pics. I have since sold and bought many players so this doesn't really reflect my current collection. I will probably make a new collection post eventually or a video or series of videos on my YouTube channel for walkmans: Hi everyone, I haven't posted anything in a while, so I thought I was due. I've also purchased and sold a lot of walkmans since my last big post so I thought I'd share with you all what I have right now. Like always I hope you enjoy the pics. Let's start with my Favorite... Aiwa. I like to call these "The First Four" TP-S30 CS-J1 HS-P1 HS-F1 David
Up Next is the *02 series HS-P02 with matching Aiwa HR-S01 (yellow) and HR-S1 Japan Market (Silver) HR-S01/S1 I have since sold this one. But I figured I'd post a pic of it. HS-F02 HS-J2 CassetteBoy and HS-J02 HS-T02
My Favorite Aiwa series...*07/400 series HS-P05MkII Aiwa HS-P02MkII HS-F07 HS-U07 HS-T400 HS-J07 and HS-J400
And here's the last of my Aiwa's, the *09/600 series and two others Aiwa HS-G09 HS-T09 HS-J600 HS-J700 HS-P50
Wow that's quite the collection of Aiwa's there, few I'd love to add to my small lot. I have a CS-J1 and a HS-J02 (when it arrives!) and a few newer Aiwa's. Thanks for sharing!
Ok...The JVC collection. Not as big as my Aiwa Collection but it'll do. JVC CQ-1K CQ-F2E and F2K CQ-11K MQ-5K Microcassette Recorder PC-M100 CX-5K CX-7K
And for a Bonus, I'll post my Sanyo Collection today also. Sanyo (l-r) M-4440, M-5550, M-4430 M-G1 and M-G2 M-G2 Next will be Panasonic and Misc walkmans. And then...the Sony collection. Enjoy
Just a little extra today. Thought I'd show you all where I keep my walkmans (and tapes.) I'll probably store them one of these days so they stay preserved, sealed in bubble-wrap. Don't worry, I don't expose them to direct sunlight all the time. Besides, the sunlight is filtered through the trees out back.
That PC-M100 thing looks like a great idea. You could do that with some modern smart phones - it reminds me of the Razer phone which can dock into a laptop: https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=r...l-TaAhVPVsAKHcR_B1QQ_AUICigB&biw=1920&bih=986 How much effort would it take to make that into a ghetto blaster?
Love the white Sony Watchman! I have one of these in grey and have hacked the inside to turn it into a digital media centre / retro games console You can see it working here
Awesome. It looks like the sort of thing Sony should be making now. What CPU is it running ? Regarding the comment on batteries I keep wonder if a Drill Battery could be used although they seem to come in strange voltages. No brand drills are really cheap these days.
Thanks for the suggestion - would be great if it was truly portable I have incorporated the switch on the side of the unit, wired to turn the LCD panel on/off - hopefully this would reduce battery useage so the drill battery sounds promising... In terms of CPU, this project uses a Raspberry Pi 3B+ with a Pimoroni phat DAC My current project uses the (tiny) Pi Zero W and is completely headless (no screen) and has very low power demands. It will run from a 3.7V Lipo phone battery - watch this space!
This looks awesome.. There are so many cool collections here, but non how it looks at home. Great collection
