Haha I am the only no vote so far. I don't own a D5 so couldnt hit yes, but had to see those results :-) I have been close to hitting the buy...
Thanks for the info! I will save this for "just in case" the DC-DC bites the dust in my D6.
An update, I have given it another go and it's been a lot of work, but sounds great now! I noticed that the head was cocked around 10-20 degrees...
I have repaired a WM-150 based Walkman with a similar issue. There was a spring missing near the supply reel. Looking in the parts list and...
Oops, stereo2gorocks, I was replying to your recent post about the budget Walkmans and noticed your original post was asking about high end...
Those are all very basic Walkmans. I have heard about half of those models, and I believe are all basically the same. Except for the FX117, I am...
For those with a few dozen or more Walkmans in working condition... what is your maintenance schedule? I am back up to a few dozen working, and...
Thanks, all. Some food for thought. I really need to look into my Hagerty collector car insurance as well. From their website and descriptions...

Thanks, guys. I really think this is not just an azimuth adjustment issue, and I'm now leaning towards an electrical issue. I'll be giving all...
I'm going to try to find a bundle of cassettes with dolby, azimuth, etc. All I have right now is a 3KHz tape for W&F, which has been very useful....
Doesn't appear to be head height or tilt adjustment, but I suppose I could do some creative bending to make a bit of adjustment happen. I did try...
This is about a WM-501 (such a beauty!) that I'm repairing from what has the appearance of not having been run in decades... The azimuth is very...
Thanks for giving me your thoughts. So when I say "based on", I am thinking from an engineering design perspective. I do work that is a little...
Thank's, I'll be combing through that.
Hi, trying to just lay the ground work for a geneology of the Sony slim Walkmans EX/FX/GX that ended with the WM-EX651, or round abouts there. I...
Hi, all. Doing my mandatory introduction! I've been a lurker for a while. What I'm hoping to find is some more Walkman genealogy. I absolutely...
