whats the smallest metal bodied model with both line-in and line-out jacks-

i have a D6C --anything smaller than that ?

thanks

DC2 has Line out. D3 has both Line in and out.

Very few walkmans have line in. Apart from the two bub mentions, there really aren't that many.

Don't forget the Panasonic RQ-J6 which was the only walkman to get RCA jacks

I've got a box of them. They all have the cracked main wheel issue but more annoyingly every D3 I've ever seen has a broken door release where the little tab required to secure the door open has worn itself useless. They just never seem worth fixing when you have another box of D2Cs & Boodo's requiring new wheels.

And to be fair Ira, if you really need a Sony pro unit with line in/out you really should be looking at a TC-D5 which are cheap at the moment.

was just looking to see if i could buy a good recorder/player even more compact

Interesting I thought I had seen some other old Panasonic's with RCA line outs so dug in the boxes and on top of the RQ-J6 the RS-J3 has RCA line outs. Also the Toshiba KT-R1 and KT-R2 have a switch making the mic inputs (std. jack) into AUX inputs although each is MONO input there is L and R jacks. So the R1 and R2 have line in.

LINK TO MY topic on TOSHIBA's. Cris I tried insert /edit link and it wont change link to Title.... am trying.
