What model portables are you referring to specifically, and what headphones are you using? I have used Sony's Type R portable recorders for my...
Holy Moses, sacguy231, that's one CLEAN outfit. Haven't seen anything like it. Does it work and does it sound as good as it looks?
I haven't received any email notifications on new replies in this thread since July and assumed that Marian had run into more problems with the...
I have run the player for two more weeks and it now sounds really good, as long as it's lying still. When out walking with it on my belt it still...
I would like to know too, Marian :ugotemail:
Talked to Servicekompaniet in Oslo today, Sony's repair shop here. Tech told me he hadn't seen a DD9 in 10-15 years and that they had no parts for...
Thanks, Dave! Just what the doctor ordered. I'll take a close look at this and see if I can muster up the courage to plunge in. I followed your...

Good work, Marian! New hope for my DC2, that's been on the shelf for a couple of years with a broken main gear. People who have the know-how to...
Thanks for the tips, guys. I'll bring my D6C, MDR-40's and Sennheiser HD 600's for the test drive to see how I like it. The DD9 may struggle with...
Yes, I have used the D6C since it came out in 1984, bought a second one in '85 for backup. The latter has worked with just normal maintenance to...
That's a great find, Dave, congrats! I was offered a DD9 today, apparently in very good shape. What is a fair price these days and what are the...
