Hello all, my name is Sergiu and I am a longtime reader of this forum, and others. I am a Walkman collector, I have about 500 or more in my collection, near plenty of nice decks. My audio technician experience is more than 30 years, but my collection of devices is younger and in change. Hope this new year found you all well and happy, also Cheers Sergiu
happy new year to you too Please share some pictures of your walkmans. Do you keep them in storage?? you need a lot of space to keep those walkmans. I know about this problem since i have about 400 of them
I have them in boxes, in plastic bags. I pull out one from time to time, restore it, than listen to it. So I have many restored, some not used for years. Is very hard to rotate and to keep all in sight, I say impossible, as I am pretty busy and have no more than 1-2 hours for day to listen. Is a full time job...you maybe know it. I will post pictures, of course. Some... Cheers
Hi Chris! Thank you for welcoming here also....is nice to be back. 500 is a relative number, I guess are more or less, I buy all the time new ones. Cheers Sergiu
Some of my DD, sorry for the quality of photos, made quick. I will post some others during my travel here. The pleasure is to pick one of the many brands and models that I have, restore it well and enjoy it by use in real life. I am planning of writing my impressions as a review, but for this I need more than one piece from each, as just like this the review should be correct. Finding time for this is pretty hard, as so many things to do every day, like many of us. This is a hobby, but sometimes I sell some of the restored ones, in order to keep this hobby alive and buy other nice devices. Cheers Sergiu
Thank you all for welcoming! I was amazed by some collections members here have, some devices are absolute beauties Cheers Sergiu
