I recently picked up a cheap Sony wm-f77 that wasn't working in the hopes of being able to put it back on it's feet for a few more years. It...
I think that logic is spot on. The screw I adjusted was a grounding screw.
My dd22 has since stopped making those sounds but if I'm going to be honest, I'm not 100% why. I remember there was a screw that went through the...
I took another look inside to see if there was anything obviously wrong but it all checked out. I have very little clue how to diagnose this (do...
The sounds occur after about 30ish seconds: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1I3t6rOc6zuH7uuXy6B4D8gnYAdTxwX5p/view?usp=sharing And appear mostly...
It doesn't vary with volume and strangely only occurs when there is a cassette playing (whether the cassette has anything on it or not). I even...
There is a strange issue with my dd22 where it makes popping/crackling sounds after a little while of playing. I had previously replaced caps on...
Wow! That's a pretty awesome overview spreadsheet. Sadly I have nothing to contribute but I did wonder that if the DD22 was the first walkman with...
I am pretty sure this player just uses the cheap "Thread in the spring" door mech which can be frustrating. It sounds like just the spring has...
When I dismantled the F10 I was able to clean out the motor which was initially loud however the motor is still very loud and I was wondering if...
Oh I see. Digital reproductions I assume are considerably easier than analogue with FPGA (if even possible). I know very little of how FPGAs work...
Wow! I have always dreamt of a dd9 mech walkman controlled with an FPGA which could potentially shrink all the sound chips and controller chips...
Well I was able to take it apart semi successfully and moved that spring part back into place. It is an incredibly flimsy part and am surprised...
Thanks so much! I think I have an idea of what to fix. I guess I will have to disassemble a lot of it. Wish me luck!
One of my F10s has been a nightmare. I sold it and had it working well for quite some time prior to selling it however it was returned to me...
I was wondering that also but I checked the description of vintage_walkman_lab's listing but it says it works for f100III as well. The f100III was...
Hi That's an awesome find. F100s are really cool compact players and one of my favorites that I own. I am definitely not an expert on this but if...
Hi Boiled_frog I don't know much about the wm-150 but I have had that megabass problem before. It generally requires new caps but it sounds like...
Thanks for the suggestions. I needed something to stick the direction panel back on to my sony f100 that goes over the cassette hole. Using 3M...
No I don't happen to be him.:laugh: And I don't have such a cool collection of players. I wasn't aware of many cassette enthusiasts around central...
