Jup, how do you call it then?

mrp32dave - 2010-11-30 10:59

Cris, going in the right direction but it's from 91-92 and I wouldn't really say it was a cheaper brand. Here's another picture.

plop - 2010-11-30 14:10

I suspect it is a Kenwood.

mrp32dave - 2010-11-30 18:22

Yes, It's a Kenwood, anyone know the model number?

johnedward - 2010-11-30 20:47

With out further to do I present CARNAC the MAGNIFICENT Walkman #6.

CARNAC's Mystery Walkman #6

mrp32dave - 2010-11-30 22:44

John, not a clue on your #6.
The Kenwood model was a CD-D3.

It's a Sharp?

johnedward - 2010-12-01 06:56

It is not a sharp. It was a one off item as far as I know.

This is a tough one, is it a Pioneer?
I don't really have clue.
Anyway try this one.

johnedward - 2010-12-01 12:30

CARNAC the MAGNIFICENT

DAVE that is the AKAI PM-R1

Note several companies used this chassis such as Kenwood, Teac Also the PM-R2 still used this mechanics.

johnedward - 2010-12-01 12:39

Dave it is not a PIONEER. Actually it is NONE of the big mfg. names....
clue the model number starts with WL-

mrp32dave - 2010-12-01 12:45

Yeah, thought that might be a bit easy, yes I have at least 6 different brands using the same mechanics.

Try this one.

coolcol - 2010-12-01 13:12

Sony WM-106 i think with winding headphones

ao - 2010-12-01 13:20

Yeah, i got some of these, WM-51 or something like that.

mrp32dave - 2010-12-01 13:27

Colin your correct WM-106 with winding headphones, also known as something like WM-52, I have several of both versions in grey and white, headphones seem to fall apart only have one player with a good set.

mrp32dave - 2010-12-01 13:41

A couple more one easy and one maybe not

coolcol - 2010-12-01 13:46

How about this?

cooldude - 2010-12-02 14:27

I think this one is a Sharp Being, not sure about the model number.

ao - 2010-12-02 23:02

Oooh, that's interestin coolcol, my guess is that it's quite late but still has nice retro lines. Couldn't guess the model though.

CARNAC the MAGNIFICENT

Dave your first one is a Sanyo JJ-R series recording player without a radio. I am unable to give you the exact model but it is NOT a JJ-R6.

Dave your second one I can not even venture a guess from only the one photo... another side would be helpful. All can say is it is the second generation smaller player from 82-84 my guess so far.

johnedward - 2010-12-03 16:24

AO guessed a Sharp and Dave a Pioneer, both are incorrect. Since this is actually a promotional Walkman that is based on some mfg. chassis ( I have no clue , it is a nice heavy all metal player) this is probably not a fair one to guess at. I am going to give additional pictures and identify this stinker for you all. Carnac's Walkman #6 no one guessed after 3 days of posting.

Yes a very good guess as it is a sharp Being JC M50 model. Chunky all round metal casing with decent sound. Never thought i say this but i like this unit.

I think I have a very similar model if not the same exact one. I really like it myself. It is nicely built and it sounds good.

I am going to take a shot here and say that it's a National.

johnedward - 2010-12-07 05:57

COOLDUDE thank you for keeping the topic going. I am afraid that your shot at my Walkman #7 in not correct. A good guess though.

Th lines reminds me as i'm sure i had one for a few years but it is not a well known name i'm sure. Does it have a speaker at the front?

johnedward - 2010-12-07 20:44

RE: Carnac's Walkman #7

Coolcol you are correct it most certainly is NOT a well known brand. No speaker anywhere on player. Here is another picture to further confuse you

CARNAC the MAGNIFICENT WALKMAN #7

COME AGENTORANGE THIS IS RETRO ... not even a guess

I know these may be considered known brands but is it a Toshiba or Hitachi????

johnedward - 2010-12-09 10:24

Great try again Cooldude but NO it is NOT a Toshiba or a Hitachi.
Prior guesses NATIONAL.... NO
Also mentioned question if speaker on player .... NO player has no external speaker.

CARNAC The MAGNIFICENT

OK here goes a SECOND CLUE :::::

Unit as can be seen is full Stereo but recording is offered only mono from small condenser mic on front of player. NO jack input for plug in mic. A very unusual player to offer 2 speeds for recording but only internal mic recording capability.

zx280 - 2010-12-09 22:04

NO I got this player from Jazzrat2000 who lives close to me in S. Florida.

zx280 - 2010-12-10 17:48

Well done JE. Here it is. But I'll be back with something else real soon

zx280 - 2010-12-10 18:29

Try this one. It is part of the walkman and not just its case.

I wish, Cris.
I've got info about it & want one, but have yet to snag one for myself. Keep this topic going guys, it's great. Several out there still not guessed. I'm hopeless & know little about walkmen.
Cris: how about digging out that red walkman I gave you - might stump 'em a bit...

zx280 - 2011-01-17 21:11

This arrived yesterday. Looks like a Hitachi. Has an AM FM tuner pack. Quality construction. Never heard of this brand before. Any ideas?
