So I hear a lot about how like the D-555 is really good.
Kind of out of my price range.
I used to have a DE301 when I was younger. How did that model compare? It seems to me that the big line for the discmans is when they started using the compression for the anti-skip instead of keeping the audio purely PCM. So it seems like the DE301 with 10 sec anti-skip might have been the last good disc man.
Also looking at a D-125 right now. 2 batteries is kind of preferable for me. The sweet spot might be an older discman with 3 second anti-skip and some audio features of the older ones.
but any thoughts?
