I had this happen to me the other day too (same unit - 925). I just played a cd until the 'lobatt' warning came on again and then restarted the charge cycle. This seemed to fix things up. I'd seriously consider getting one of the cheaper Sony NE units (e.g. NE300) that use AA size batteries -...

Hi, I was looking at getting a Sony NE900 CD player for playing my own MP3 cds. I've got an old Sony EJ925 and I'm not expecting the sound to be any better than that unit - what I'm more interested in is it's ability to play mp3 files. Are there any restrictions in what type of mp3 files...

Quote: Originally posted by Superbaldguy I'm not surprised your N505 did not prove to be reliable. Afterall, it is one of the cheapest MD recorders on the market. However, if you upgrade to the N1 as suggested, you'll be getting a *much* better unit. I don't think the difference...

You just need the appropriate ac adapter to plug into the cd player itself - the player does the charging. The lid is actually die cast magnesium, the rest of the body is plastic. Ben

I wouldn't get your hopes up. Sony don't seem to be doing much R&D on the cd player side of things. There is less competition and higher profits to be made on the md scene - especially in Japan. Neb.

I don't use an amp. What I've found though is my portable MD unit (R900) sounds better than my portable CD unit (D-EJ925) for probably the reasons stated by others here - better DAC. Mind you, the mega bass on the CD units very poorly done which does not help. Of the newest cd players the...

Quote: Originally posted by KingNothing I'm sorta confused but is this 925 the japanese 999? Yes - but production of the 925 was moved to Malaysia. I doubt there is any significant difference. I'm quite happy with mine - sound quality isn't as good as my md unit but its just as...

Is your battery low? I've found with the 925 that on certain discs when the power is running low (but certainly not empty i.e. one or even two bars left) it will skip. Connecting the power adapter immediately fixes the problem. Neb

Quote: Originally posted by blr Congrats. EJ725 is an overall nice player in terms of features. BTW have you noticed that Sony reintroduced it under a different model #, EJ 835 or something, or at least this is a player that looks exactly the same as my EJ 725. I believe the 835...

Hi, When running the 925 on mains power the backlight on the remote stays on permanently - I believe it's possible to turn it off via some button pressing combination. Does anyone know what it is? (I bought the unit second hand so I don't own the manual) Thanks, Neb

Quote: Originally posted by jlo mein do they still sell the sony d-ej725 or d-ej721 in austrailia? The Sony ej725 is still available in Australia and some stores still have the Panasonic ct470. I had a 725 and the build quality is much better than this years replacement model. Neb

Hi, I'm not overly impressed with the Grado 60's for the current crop of portable cd/md units (they won't even plug into the remote for a start!). Headroom recommend the Koss Portapros as good, (relatively) cheap headphones with great sound. Has anybody got/heard both and can give me an...

Quote: Originally posted by jlo mein Neb: from your post about the 725 and 925 im assuming that your talking about the phones out, not the line out. Someone in a review said grados and 725 might be a good match. Is this true? Also, I found that the 721 is the same, except it...

Having owned a 725 and now 925 I can say the 925 can sound alright with the right headphones. I'm using the Sony 888 earbuds with it and they're a pretty good match. The 725 is actually pretty good. It's got an lcd on the unit, uses standard batteries and reasonable build quality. I only...
