I think the design was similar just because both companies worked on it. Internally, Aiwa and Sanyo units have relatively little in common. Their...
Hello, I have a couple of NOS units to sell, more will come. All of these have been revised and work perfectly....
Aiwa, back in the early 80's, worked the most with Sanyo and Kenwood, from what I've gathered. But where Kenwood players were just rebadged Aiwa...
Hi, I had not noticed this before getting a WM-7, but the illusive HS-M2 bears uncanny resemblance to Sony's WM-7. Both of these devices came out...
This one was stuck, I freed it up and it didn't make a difference. I just get a little click out of it and that's all, when I just use an AA...
I have a DD33 and it's not the same motor. But I know what else uses the same one, two in fact. A DD9.
No, it was described as not working. I've had many Walkmans and only one of them had a bad motor - a WM-23. I just didn't think a high-end model...
Hi, I've purchased the coveted DX100 recently, but it turned out to have a bad motor. It's stone dead. If anyone has a DX100 for spare parts or...
I've been doing more digging into the topic of Korean players and found something perhaps even weirder. So for a while now I've been seeing those...
I think that Samsung along with other rebadged Sony models I've found (labeled as GoldStar) were only meant for the Korean market. My guess is...
I thought his could be interesting - while trying to find a certain Daewoo walkman from an old commercial, I stumbled upon this. This is a 3D scan...
Hi, After replacing a completely shot volume pot on my WM-7, I noticed Dolby NR is not working. The switch doesn't change anything and it's not...
Hi, The motor governor chip in my HS-P05 is broken and sends straight battery voltage out of the output. The schematic for this model doesn't...
Hi, I have a good condition PH-M88 that needs to go. I've recapped the detachable micro recorder and it sounds and records excellent now. The...
The M-1000 is a voice recorder on steroids, the best micro portable from Sony is the M-50 player. It has a freq. response up to 12kHz, which is...
Yep, look at those specs, though. 12kHz max. freq. response on a normal microcassette! And 14 on a metal, isn't that just super impressive for...
It's JDM and I believe it was never sold outside Japan. It's 100v but thankfully 50/60Hz, the plug looks like an old American one.
Today's score - the mighty Hitachi Lo-D D-MC50. The ultimate microcassette deck, with the best frequency response and beautiful design. Also the...
The microcassette part was meant for recording audio from TV programs. The KV-4100 was made in the very early 80's, when VCRs were very expensive...
Yes, I mean it should be connected to pin 9. I had a problem exactly like this with the Walkman running twice as fast after a new driver...
