Good choices. I also really really like the WM-501, it's just right in every aspect. I particularly like my red WM-501. I think for the #5 on...
Good question. I have a couple of TPS-L2s and I think 2 or 3 with the original demo tape, all the same "Jungle Strut" like your 2nd picture. I...
I'm also very glad that this article triggered many sweet memories, and caused people to search for their old walkman and repair it to listen to...

The KT-R2 I do not have, I googled it and it's a nice one too. You're probably right that the Sony M-50 tuner pack is the only one that size. The...
[ATTACH] [ATTACH] This Toshiba tuner pack belongs to a model I posted before - of course the ultracool KT-AS10. It features 5 contacts, pogo pins...
