what's happen to your e10 duncan?

 

[Superbaldguy]

I use my D22's with all my Sony portables - MZ-R910, R909, E707, and E80, but mainly with the recorders. Actually, the older E80 usually has a pair of 888's attached to it.

The Eggo-series of headphones are truly designed to be used with MD gear, IMHO.

Sony MD + Eggos = Sweetness

I traded it, along with the Audio Technica A900s for the new CD player & MD combo that you can see in my signature...

Part of me is sad to see the little E10 go, but the rest of me is happy to get good quality MD recordings

It's a JB920 transformation. Very good sounding

(My Sharp DR7 has more detail but sounds weaker)

Duncan:
The JE770 = kickass! I played around with one at SonyStyle, it's a nice recorder. (I also played with the JA333ES but it's hardly fair to compare a deck that costs twice as much

)

I cannot quite fathom the purpose of this unit. Is it to record from a computer to a minidisc?

It's just instead of having a normal deck, you can get one that stays near your PC that comes with a link for editing and such.

I almost got a PC3 when I saw one in NYC on closeout for $199.99.

It also functions as a normal deck. In fact, it IS a normal deck, but cooler and smaller. It comes with a(n optional for other decks) PC link which connects to the computer via a serial connection using the decks Control A1.

It's the same as an MDS-JB920. The newest model of this series of decks is the crappy MDS-NT1. The four units of the series are MDS-PC1, MDS-PC2, MDS-PC3, and the MDS-NT1.

My Eggos are on the UPS truck!
I just bought an MZ-R909 off eBay and already own the MZ-E75, ebay too!

for that, you might as well get one of the higher end middle of the line decks (770, 940 etc) that come with the PS/2 connector on the front for connecting a keyboard... Editing has never been so easy, and so quick

Oh, I can't remember what I posted in this thread before, but the D66 & N707 combo is re-born, thanks to how well the JE770 makes MDs... I'm well impressed

 

[myself, aka me]

You can also edit the disc, AB erase, erase, record.. it controls the deck via PC. Besides, this was invented before those decks came around, and they cost NZ$1000, whereas this oldie was only NZ$500. Skipping forward in time, the MDS-PC3 is like.. 1/5 the size of a normal MD deck.

Who would have thought sony could make good software? MD editor rocks!

 

[bangraman]

The kit fits into practically all MD decks. It comes with something called M-Crew which I believe has the usual Sony software reputation... But that's only what I've heard. With the JE770 (I believe some older decks also had this feature but I don't know) and up, you have an option, whether to fit the keyboard if you want to do some quick editing and titling without powering up your PC, or you can attach the PC-Link kit for the full range of PC control.
Although practically any PS/2 keyboard will work you can also buy dedicated editing keyboards from the likes of Audiocubes.
I found it much easier to title using the keyboard than going to OpenMG for example, when I had the N707.
