MD: Cheap in-dash units

2000-01-10 Thread Moran Bentzur


After the Sanyo thing (you all remember it), I thought I'll never see an
In-Dash unit for less than 200$. I followed a link from the MDCP news to
tweeter.com and they seem to have one MDXC150 (I don't know anything about
this model) going for 79.99$. Also they sell the MDXC7900 for 229.99$ which
I think is nice.

Just wanted you guys to know.

Bentz- wish I had an In-Dash (preferably that awesome JVC unit).

I have never used a Mac so I can't even start to answer your question yet I
have to point out one thing which you might have missed (others have missed
it before).
In your post you asked: "what does it take ... from my player...".
The first thing you have to check is that your "player" has a digital
output. If this "player" isn't a Minidisc deck or bookshelf (even on some of
those there is no digital output for the MD sub-component) all you have is
an analog output.
Bottom line: If you are using a portable MD player or player/recorder
(except the MZ-R1) there is no way to make a digital transfer to your
computer (any computer).

I think the silver lining here is that he's subscribed to the digest.
Imagine how disturbing it would be if he was on the full list.

Probably not as disturbing as finding 35+ MD-l digests sitting in

With any luck, they'll clog his mailbox up after a week, and it will
stop!

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!

Consider the AIWA AM-F70.
It has some features which are missing on the MZ-R50 like program play,
backlit LCD and buttons (on unit).
It has a longer battery life in a smaller package, no End-Search and it was
introduced more than a year after the R50 which probably makes it's ATRAC
chip more current.
I think all this is worth another 20-40$.

MD: Aiwa AM-F70 titling solution

1999-07-28 Thread Moran Bentzur


Hi everyone,

Does anyone know a convenient way to title MDs with the Aiwa AM-F70 ?
I'm sick of the jog dial method (too slow).
I was thinking of something in the line of the little construction kit cable
for the Sharp
70x: http://www.ncc-mannheim.net/user/meierth/MD70X.HTML

Bentz - I wasn't lurking I just didn't have anything to say :)
