Hello everyone, I'm Gáb from Berlin and I fell in love with Walkmans. I already own some favorite pieces, but a few need revision. I like to build, but I have no experience with Walkmans or similar electronic devices. I'm very thankful that I came across this forum.
So far two of the Sony WM20s, a Sony WM10 + one Body, a Toshiba KT AS10, a Sony DD30, a JVC CX-F7K, a SONY WM-EX 610 and a Sanyo ES-P7. Some of them for repair...
Thank's T-ster, I'm really fascinated of the design and the electronic engineering of the older days. But Luck, Time and Money are my opponent.
Welcome, I hope you'll feel at home and nice collection! A photo of your walkmans would be really neat. I know the time, money and luck issues as well!
Here are some pics from my babys. Right know I'm searching for help to repair one of the "Sony WM10", the "Toshiba KT-AS10" and the "Sanyo Espera ES P7". The Sony has a broken wheel (rim with teeth), I think it's "Take-Up Reel". The Toshiba and the Sanyo need's a new belt I think. Don't know how to take apart the Toschi. Still searching for the right belt for the Sanyo. Maybe “mihokm” has an idea. If somebody can help or have a link I would appreciate it. Already found a post for the Sony problem but I'm not sure how to do it. We will see...
