  1. Hi I have A Euro 2mw n10 and I would like to reverse the low output.What exactly is required?I am compitent with a soldering Iron. Geoff

    MZ-N10 LOW VOLUME

    Thank's for your comments Kevin. I will keep the N10, and get a 910 I think, I suppose I could convert to collecting minidiscs portables as a hobby! In reality I was hoping for a quick fix with the N10, I would have thought someone would have said by now if one was around. I don't use much more than 12-15 settings myself only it's a bit like a big engine on a car, it's there if you need it, and the ride is always better! Funny you mention those headphones I do have some of them that I got for my Freecom Beatman II mini CD player, I will try them. Geoff

    MZ-N10 LOW VOLUME

    I dont think cost cutting is the reason, producing variants of the same thing adds to production costs.I have just bought the N10, so that's why I am disgruntled, you don't expect the flagship model to be lousy. I do have the N1 and the N505 for everyday use.I do fancy the 910 as this is more or less the N10 apart from a few omissions. Are you happy with it?

    MZ-N10 LOW VOLUME

    Hi I have read the postings on this subject with interest. As a UK resident I have an Mz n10 with the crappy audio output. I have been told that the Audio is capped in the EEPROM settings and what is required is a comparison of the two units settings, then the required buttons need only be pushed in service mode to effect the changes, no soldering required. If you come across these values I would be interested.” No good me asking anyone in the UK" But on a further note I feel that Sony should not have released a unit designed to work with a full 5mW output rather than 2mW which in actual fact in reality is a lousy 1.8mW, this is a bad compromise and the unit is totally choked by this and the lack of Digital Megabass makes things even worse.I also have a Mz n505 and a Mz n1 both are better for general listening with oomph!. Unfortunatly technology is market driven and the greed is often greater than the good.I was told to do my homework next time, and live with it. Easily said if you don't have to! but Sony actually market this product in the EU with 5mW output ?Happing MD listening all be it quietly.

  6. But that is 'nt 2mW and yes I do blame Sony Poorly thought through products deserve poor reviews, otherwise we all end up with C..p!
  7. Hi Thanks for the reply, I don't know about homework one does'nt expect the flagship model to be one of the worst.I have a MZN505 and a MZ N1, all with 5mW output.The N10 was a gift from my wife.My thinking is that Sony would have designed the unit to work on 5mW per channel originally and as you say cappped the Euro model,and I thought it might have used a form of the AVLS setting to reduce output. I a am a big fan of minidisc . Also I might add that it is marketed as having 5mw output but only when you get the user manual after purchase do you find the true output. Kind Regards Geoff
  8. Hi I am desperate for some help......... Does anybody know if the European version of the MZ N10 which I have with only 2mW per channel audio output can be converted to the standard 5mW per channel as the rest of you have? The output of the European version is really choked because of this.It sounds C...p Is it a EEPROM tweek or is the mainboard different? can anyone supply the EEPROM values for the non-European model.
