Have you cleaned the volume pot? Sometimes it's just a very-very dirty volume pot. Or even a broken one. In my case, one of the internal wipers...
Yup! It's one of my better deals. Money very well spent. After testing it for 2 days, it seems that there's still some adjustment to be made,...
The magic of the local flea markets never ceases to amaze me. Last time, I got blue WM-DD, and now it's a blue WM-3o! Judging from a quick google...
I'll be looking forward to finding the red & blue version. That deep blue one must be way cool as well!
Oh! I didn't know there was 2 versions of the black one. Interesting... Mine's got the Stereo Way branding. [ATTACH] The mic/talk-line is quite...
Just earlier this week I got a a black one. It was love at first sight. In fact, I wasn't quite aware of this series before seeing it. The red,...
Perhaps you remembered Aiwa because the PS50 looks like an Aiwa CS-J1 wannabe :hmmm I've not seen any in real life, but they look like the more...
Jorge's technique is an excellent one and would work very well, but I think that it would be more difficult for the Walkman logo (which, if I...
Seen a few of this one badged as a Fairmate PD-550. Judging by the layout, I'm guessing it also shares the same internals as the Philips Skymaster...
Hmm... Firlsy, my heart wouldn't let me do that. In some way, I'm more of a how-it-looks than how-it-sound kinda guy. So those mono units are not...
Thanks!! I do enjoy challenging myself, especially on the cosmetic and mechanical side of restorations. As for the electronics side, I still have...
I usually try to keep things original. Trying to source original parts and do as little modifications as possible but this particular TPS-L2...
Oh, it's just permanent magnets... I missed on buying one of these several weeks ago. I thought they were electromagnets... It was boxed as well....
Thanks! I'll check on those the next time I get the opportunity to open it up. So far, I have not tried recapping anything though.
Replacing the DD gear is quite easy once you get the hang of it :ok For the moment I'll be content with my M-1000 and be more on the lookout for...
Been looking for one of these for ages, and as usual, the rare ones come in quick sucession! Found these 2 units locally within a few days, and...
Oh, it seems that we're not on the same page here... I personally call that the side plate. The manual say's it's the same 1.4 x 4 screws. And...
Yeah. The countersunk screw is just for the bottom side. Near the battery door hinge. Otherwise, the walkman wouldn't stand up straight. All other...
Not precisely, but I use some generic small screws advertised as being for generic Chinese cellphones. You need a countersunk one for the bottom...
Quite interesting indeed. The green parts looks uneven in some parts. Simply factory-painted perhaps? The absence of the rewind button is...
