If it's brand new, I say BUY IT NOW!!! I'm the proud owner of one of these
beauties and have been using it for over 1.5 years now. Very reliable, great
sound and perfect results every time when I record live gigs (which was its
main purpose, and still is). It's a great player, but I only use it
alongside my drumkit over headphones through a cheap component amp I bought
many moons ago for a song 3#-)
As a portable player though, of the few occasions that I have used it in
that way, it's been great, with the right pair of headphones ... the stock
ones don't do it much justice. Although I like the backlit display of the
R55 (which would be an advantage to me), I decided to stick with my R50
simply because I get a Li-Ion battery instead of a NiMH and greater running
time because of it. There's a sacrifice when you go too small.
After hearing and using other brands before deciding on the R50, I felt that
the Sony was the only way to go. One reliable workhorse which I won't be
letting go of for quite some time 3#-)
Adios,

Subject: MD: MZ-R50
I am planning on buying my first MD recorder/player in the next month or so.
I have done a lot of research on what's out there and what soon will be out
there . . I have concluded that the MZ-R50 is one of the best looking and
performing units out there right now - even when compared to the newer
models released by Sharp, Sony, JVC, Panasonic . . . I am looking for
feedback from anybody who has an opinion on this matter! I don't want to
make a mistake spending so much money so please help me out if you can. I
have found a place where I can get this player for $230 new. THANK YOU,
THANK YOU, THANK YOU!
