I have a wm-7 that I’d really like to run a line out from to my stereo, but this model is set up for a remote on the headphone cord. So whenever you plug a line in, the Walkman just changes sides on the tape over and over again. I read that Sony made an adapter for this, so I’d either like to find one or make my own. Any suggestions as to how to make or buy one?
From Walkman Central "The remote control was a “first” for a personal stereo. It worked using a special pair of headphones which contained a control unit in line with the cable. The stop and reverse functions could be triggered from this device. The system operated by open-circuiting either the left or the right headphone connection, and because of this the WM-7 could not be used with some amplifier or loudspeaker systems without a special adaptor" http://www.walkmancentral.com/products/wm-7 Can you plug it into the stereo and then turn the WM-7 on? Or mess with the A/B speaker switch to see if it changes sides?
Hi there, is there already a solution found for this. I have the same issue with my WM-7. Just wondering is there is a solution.
