Side discussion indeed from the easiest to repair walkman. I noticed something similar while using my Panasonic SJ-MR220 MD player/recorder. It...
I did not see these side by side before: the WX1 looks so clean, really nice! I have yet to put my rebelted WM-EX618 to the endurance test with...
No worries, it would be my personal preference since you are trying to revive this device. I believe that we - as mere mortals on the forum -...
Hi @MissionTroll . I can’t provide any help here, but would like to suggest to combine the threads you have opened since it concerns the same...
Let’s enjoy the discussion and side discussions! While we are doing that, I am still looking for information on plenty of the DD line walkmans....
Happy to read you were able to restore this unit to a fully functioning one! These are to rare to go to waste.

From an exterior design perspective, the sleeker and more rounded housings of the DD9, DD33 and DX100 at the end of the 80s/beginning of 90s looks...

Especially bass expansion combined with modern IEMs is a bit heavy on my ear drums. On the WM-DD33 even the lowest setting MegaBass is on the edge...
Cool! Andy is also featured in the documentary I linked above your posts, where he is attending a dinner without taking the headphones off. Part 3...
After more updates in that thread, there only seems to be one center gear version for the DD range. Note that some of the DD portables don’t even...
Findings of brief research: the TC-150 was introduced - like the TC-D5 - in 1978. The TC-150 uses inexpensive AA batteries, built-in mic, single...
Please see my DD portables overview thread @tomtom87 , I posted the DDII service manual earlier today.
I know that, and did look up the mechanism in the service manual. The words Sony chose to describe the WM-2 are, well, a bit peculiar. I was...
Thank you for doing this detailed analysis @Machaneus ! I will update my overview + timeline appropriately this weekend. The conclusion from my...
I do believe it is the switch I missed the first time after re-assembly:
