Some companies accept money orders, wire transfers.

I believe Sharp's bringing out the MT270, 290. Sony's busting out 7 more, I don't know WHICH of them are UK models unfortunately. Sony's gone all bizarre releasing these models, there's different ones for the States, Europe, arghhh!

You don't get it, do ya? The idea, you record (with an MD) what your idea of silence is. Chances are there's a lot of background noise too, which I think is what is needed. If i'm wrong, then yes, i'm confused, ha!

The case doesn't always protect the internals.. I guess it's somewhat like getting internal bleeding.. Hmm, I've found a good idea for a case, somewhat bulky but very good. think "beachball"

I think he means 'phased out'

Dick smith sells 'em, about $30. http://www.dse.com.au/cgi-bin/dse.storefro...duct/View/C0062

Set N505 to 'mono' record mode.

Yay! I was certain it did.. But is the N10 internals still plastic? Look inside a DR7 at bic or yodobashi, it's practically armour plated. I imagine the N10 and DR7 would be fine for everyday usage, but the DR7 looks to me like it would survive more 'crashes' than the N10. This assumes they haven't changed much since the N1, R909. and R900..

3-4 months or so, when the N510 and NF610 are released.

Laser NG would be 'laser no good', so I think, off to the repair shop it goes, unfortunately.

Apparently it doesn't, but I wouldn't risk it. If it doesn't fry the unit, it may fry the battery.

OOoh! What colour? I got me blue one a couple of days ago - it rocks 8) Bass +1 and treble +2 is the best on the DR7

Indirectly then - could someone shift this thread..?

Me storage - The Sharp looks rather nice there, better than my R37 or E900, ah hell, better than any Sony :evil:

I was thinking a different form of compression... :twisted:

The diagrams are easy to understand usually, I figured out my DR7 (well, some katakana in there was helpful..) easy enough. Surely there's a picture of someone unscrewing that screw which holds the battery shut? The idea is remove that, remove the plate, 'n remove the battery. Obtaining the battery is the difficult part, however.

Silly silly, considering I look inside my Sharp and find it bolted up like a tank, look at an N1 and it's so flimsy in comparison, that and Sony's reliability isn't the best (look at these N1's dropping like flies). However, considering you think you've won this argument, I'll just shut up..... and wait for the N10s to die :twisted: Well you're right, but if I was going to bet, it sure as hell wouldn't be on an N10.

I keep mine in a wine box but they're stored kind of funny, and don't fit now that I have 46 discs. In fact, I might just make a stand today maybe..

An MD deck, or old sharp portable, the instructions are in MD.org somewhereeeee. The idea is you switch discs without the deck knowing, which then writes the TOC of the last disc to the newly inserted disc.

Oh, once again Sony regresses :roll: *feels extra glad he got the DR7 instead of the N10* and unlike the N10, the DR7 is built extra good, no breaking after a year on this unit 8)

errr. Are you sure about that? That's old sony. New sony lets you go into manual mode, then adjust the levels while it's recording...

It does if you set it to manual recording mode, not much of a task :roll:. Personally, I think either would be good, although i'm certain now my Sharp DR7 will take more abuse than any new Sony.

No such thing as stupid questions, only repetitive ones . This isn't one of those though

If you don't care for NetMD, go DR7 - even if you can't tell if it sounds better, it surely is built better!

I think DAT has digital out - you may want to have a look at that. Unfortunately DAT recorders are kind of huge, and expensive.
