MZ-NH1

I was talking about with shuffle ON, my MD will repeat songs an hour into listening to it! I was now the only person with this problem on an MZ-NH1... You put it on shuffle, and it seems to shuffle to the next double number (2,4,8,16,32....) Extremely strange! And very annoying, because you will always hear some of the 1st 10 songs (Track 1-10) at least twice!

Are there going to be any new HDD Sony players, which hold more than 20GB? and are good...? Is the HDD players really just for listening and not recording... And MD's are more for listening and recording?

I love your picture now though! Nice big X through it!

Shivers! Never had anything like that happen on my MZ-NH1 yet! Pity you can't get it fixed! Maybe take your warranty/receipt and everything to where you are moving to and show it to the Sony shop there... if that location has a shop...

There use to be another thread like this, but I can’t find it. I was in the car on the weekend on a 4 hr journey between states, and so I put my MZ-NH1 to Select Track randomly... Of the shuffle feature... I have said this before, and I will say it again... it has a very strange way of randomising the songs! If you start on song 1, it will then go 1,2,4,8,16,32,64.. And so on! Or close to it, so when you get to the end of your songs... say you have 150 songs.. It might get up to 128 or something, it will start from the beginning again! I noticed this especially on the weekend :@ I was in the car, and within an hour of using the random play feature, I had heard more than 3 songs twice in the hour! This is ridiculous! Anyone know if Sony knows about this or what?

At the moment for me, Refault is the best! The CCRoyal is positively disgusting! And the olive one... :S the bright green is too bright for my liking.. But that's just my thought's

r o f l! That Royal theme! :| LOL well! Sorry but that doen't turn me on 1 bit The Olive is ok... too mright for me.. so back to the Refault, which is extremely relaxing

Couldn't agree more!!

I think the reason was because Australian's didn’t embrace the technology, and they sold extremely poorly the Hi-MD's.... If I recall correctly... Zathura did start the original post, so maybe as to what exactly he has heard

Aparently not at the moment according to a Sony employee in Australia

No way was I goign to buy my MZ-NH1 at Sony for $800... probably a month after it was released... So I did lots of research, trying to find the cheapest place which sold the unit... untill I found a Retravision store in Redfern that solf it for I think it was just under $600...

You saying that a charger, blank discs and a microphone equate to $200-300 worth?! I recon that is pretty ridiculous! You won’t believe this. I bought my MD from Retravision as I said above, which came with the 'free' T mic. I want the next model up, which sold for $219 at Sony shops... the T Mic sold for $150 I am pretty sure... anyway I went to Sony asking whether i could give them the T mic, and buy the next level up, and pay the difference, and the guy said no, for the reason, that the T mics were produced for $50, and that at Sony they sold them for $150, so he would only give us $50 off the next level up mic!!!! That is how much of a profit Sony are making on their products, and I recon that is just bloody ludicrous, and ripping off the general public! $100 mark up price, for a shitty little mic! How much of a profit do you recon they were making on their MD's?? $300 profit for every MD sold!?

Completely agree, I think people here do tend to be a bit more selective, especially if the product is so dear! I'm not upset... if you're referring to me Just staining some facts that Sony seem not to care about

Well no offence but Teac aren’t the best of brands... I don't think Aussies are slow to take up technology at all, heaps of people have an iPOD. The thing is, heaps of my friends have the basic NetMD's which they just use for music, and they don't see any reason to buy a $800 latest model, if their MD does what they want... iPOD's are advertised everywhere, on TV, sides of busses, taxis, everywhere. I have not seen ONE MD advertisement in Australia at all. Seriously! Maybe Sony needs to have a look at their promotional side of things, and actually see how they promote this kind of new technology. When I first got my MZ-NH1, and found out I had to re-encode all my mp3's I was very angry, and told all my friends how crap Sony MD's were. Now marc has made the conversion tool... and 2nd Gen MD's now have mp3 support, I'd strongly recommend an MD to a friend, if the prices were A LOT lower!

Ahahahah!!! nice!

^^ Completley agree! I paid $600 for my MZ-NH1, bought it from Retravision when Sony were still selling it for $800, but what a rip off $800!!! Maybe $500 would be a good starting price to see sale revenue increase? You can't always make a profit straight away when releasing a new product!

Ahahah yeh! All depends on how much money you have to spend as well!

Lol... looks very nice indeed! It also looks like you have about 5 different coloured MD's there!

Nice... (drools)

How many GB's of data will it hold? Buttons are ugly though... And all the fancy up printed graphics on all the other buttons looks a bit unnecessarily

That looks mad! Is that a Hard drive player? Or a mp3/ATRAC memory card kinda thing? Like 512Mb.... The red unit looks very nice! Buttons look a little odd... but looks good! Is this a direct competitor with the iPOD?

Yeh that must have been a huge bumma! Must suck. But the good thing is that everything is working again! Well done kurisu, good idea for a backup daily

Is this case for the MD istelf? or for the MD discs? Looks like a very nice case though. Do they make them for the MZ-NH1?

I have school exams all this week and the next 2 weeks, so I will test out my mic in, when I have soem spare time.

Ahahaha, I didn't even know you could do that!
