I bought a lot of Sony Walkman's around the period 1990 to 1993. A lot of them came with headphones like this. Only problem is the rubbery plastic...
Hi guys. I picked up a 1982 Sony Walkman at a boot sale. The Walkman is fine, but the headphone speakers are rusted to the core. Non repairable. I...
Thank you very much. I will order the ones on eBay. Brilliant stuff.
Well spotted StaticAudio. That gives me more options. Ill look on eBay for those ones.
Yes correct StaticAudio C801 and C802 are in the PSU. I assumed they were in the audio circuit because this guy on YouTube was a bit misleading....
The audio is not great on my Sony WM-DD9 on the right channel. I have traced the problem to the 2 electrolytic caps on the output. They are tiny...
I think Techmoan bought one and it was only mono.
Thanks a lot guys. I managed to pick one up on eBay for €10. LOL. Ill fit it at the weekend.
Just opened it up and changed the belts. But I found another issue , the supply reel is not turning on play , but that is because of the tiny...
Sounds great. Thanks. I ordered some Armor All. Will try it on the side first.

I picked up this boombox for €10 at a car boot sale. Only thing is the cassette doesn't work. Obviously its the belts although I haven't opened it...
That was quite expensive for a clone. $100 in 1980 money. I don't think 400,000 of those were sold in Europe. Seems a bit of a stretch.
Binatone STEREOMATE 01-5024 I found this in a car boot sale today. The one I found looks perfect although this is not my photo, can't test it as...
Those Chinese tape mechanisms are probably ok, but they pale into insignificance to what Aiwa used to put into their boomboxes even 30 years ago.
It's maybe the exception, but there were some great "boomboxes" manufactured in the early to mid 80's that were every bit as high quality as their...
Anything with a cassette manufactured in 2023 in China is going to be missing stuff you would expect. If leaving it mono means it can be be...
Yup. Amstrad was all junk. Sugar himself called it the "mugs eyeful". It passed the "Amstrad test" Mimic the Pioneer/Technics look on the outside....
