the Cloneman mission

…first of all check out this earlier comparison: Sony TC-55 vs. Superscope C-108 reporter types, i love those two and they have an extra spot in my shelves - who knows who was first then…

and well, as for Unix vs. Sony be asured, the Unix is a Cloneman and we learned, that those weren‘t mande by Sony…

 

...this wonderful ULTRASOUND DISCOSOUND cloneman found it's way to me today:

 

well, lately i started to sort out doublettes. i also stopped to collect those, wich only have the basic mechanical movement and nothing else, those are full plastic thingies with one headphone-socket, no talkline and no rewind (if you want to get all of those as well, you‘re fooked, there‘s too many !) but off course keep those, that i have allready.

so my classification of a proper Cloneman is:

- all the same movement
- metal cassette-lid
- talkline function
- two volume sliders (l/r)
- 3x 1.5v battery (4.5v)

i made an excel-sheet with all those Clonemen that i spected or own - i have now 57 different ones myselfe and spected more than 30 out there, wich are either some i have but in different colour, too far away or too expensive.
so there must be at least 100 different ones, rather more.
when ever i surf through ebay, i find at least one, ofte;mark them, but mostly let‘em go.
there‘s only one unit i would seriously like to own myselfe, wich in the Samsung MyMy 906, wich wa recently sold on ebay and i missed it (but went to high for my budget anyway).

so i remind on my offer: if anybody got a Smsung MyMy Cloneman, i‘m willed to trade for a Sony WM-3

 

Mostone Cassette Player SC-668 „Playmate“

 

...and count-update: "only" 58, but three doublettes (just in different colours) - so 56

 

arrived today:

POSONIC SC-668 (who the f*ck invented that name ?) i thought, that Memorex cassette matches perfect

 

Here's a good one I picked up at a local market.
It works fine. It probably can be classed as a clone of the Sony although it does not have the mic.

 

yay, thanks, that's a good one

 

"Sex Bus". LOL. Thats on Spinal Tap's forthcoming album.

 

haha, thanks for reading this one nicely - i must have look at my boxed derivates if there‘s any demo-tapes and what‘s their content

 

Lol! The hilarious brand names just keep on coming..........

 

yay, and the SINGON from @MICHAEL MURRAY moved in here as well to join the club

thanks again, Michael

Trident Discojet Mini Stereo player S-201

 

Not bad. Thats allot of T2 In time I will get one as well.

 

This is a clone manufactured in Brazil in the 80's, apparently it was a copy of the WM-1. It's not mine, but it's for sale here in a facebook group.
The seller says it's new old stock, which made me tempted to buy it... but I already have so much stuff.
