Since the original Sony MZ-1 portable, which had both digital in and out, no
portable recorder that I can think of do not have digital outputs. But It would
have to be a very cheap MD player not to have one.
I just realized this very second, you may be referring to CD players and not MD
decks. As far as CD decks go, perhaps someone on the list knows of a site on
the internet that has an equipment browser for CD equipment, like MD does.
