90s walkmans are generally the ones to go for, even if they're the ugliest by far. Dolby NR is practically mandatory to get the best overal listening experience imo, but it's super worth it! So long as you accept that every unit you buy will absolutely need new belts, ebay has them in spades and its no more complex than an ipod flash mod

When Sony released the TPSL2 in Europe, they called it the “Stowaway”, changing to “Walkman” in later iterations. I worked in a little independent electrical shop at the time, we couldn’t understand why anyone would want a tape “recorder” that wouldn’t record- especially for a hundred quid! Then we plugged in the headphones, and it started to make sense. I borrowed one overnight, and feeling a little self conscious, strapped it to my belt and put on the headphones to walk to the bus stop. Some lads in a passing car made a point of slowing down to laugh at me. Embarrassed, I remember thinking “well these will never catch on…”

A lot less complex - ever had to format a belt? Anyhow many 90s Walkmans are cool as hell >:/

Yeah man lol. Have you ever tried flash modding an ipod that just refuses to take and reformatted ad infinitum? Or how about the delicateness of the ribbon cables? Its about the same just different lol

Get a Sony MD R50 or similar, mini disk player. it is literally on part and often better than most PC sound cards, notebooks and dongles and beats the PSP frequently. Dont buy pre recorded NEW MDs albums because at least some seem to use older professional mass-recorders seem which turn out to be less good than a hifi setup where you just plug in the pc to the line-in of the MD recorder/player and the headphones into the MD player if you dont want to wait for the recording to finish and it is just unbelievable good, when you find out that end result is better than what you heard when recording.

You should take a look at the Sony wh1000mx5 I like to see a video on them and your opinion of the new design and noise canceling and maby compare them to the mx4 and other headphones

I have a wm bf23, these things came out in 1988, I love it, it came relatively clean, but yeah, over time cassettes will simply not sound as good. I have a cutting crew cas from 1986, I can tell someone listened the hell out of it.

I was given a Walkman recently that didn’t work. I managed to fix it. I might sell it idk.

I had the very similar-looking MF-F2015; and it was utterly bullet proof. Dearer than the 3-band EQ and auto-reversing Toshiba it replaced, BUT the door didn't fall off, and there was a more satisfying thunk to the controls. But then your mate comes back from a trip to Japan with a Walkman that's literally the size of a cassette itself, all metal and shiny and yours immediately feels like a cave painting. Man I loved that thing though.

I managed to get my own walkman a few years ago. Really happy I managed to get my hands on one

She sounds like she needs a new belt and the head cleaned. But getting that working is cracking. Especially if you got a good deal.

I have a WM-FX407 from 1994 pretty cheap off ebay and all I had to do was buy new belts and it sounds really nice, Dolby NR B and all. Next Walkman if I buy one will probably be one of the 20th anniversary ones from 1999, as they have everything you could want on a portable cassette, they're very small and it's just before sony started really cheaping out on the sound.
