hello guys.

I think i'm gonna change my mznh900 for a mzrh10. Before that i would like to know opinions from people who own both models, specially I want to hear some comparisons between both units in size and weight.

Thanks guys

I sold my NH900 when I bought my RH10 last April. Never regretted it but I did get an RH910 a little later cause I wanted to have a 2nd unit for hot-swapping and for general long trip music playing.

I think the RH10 is a little heavier but definitely smaller. It fits in minidisc pouch/cases with the AA attachment that would not fit the NH900 with AA attachment.

The NH900, while metal on the top lid, always felt fragile. The top lid was made of some seriously thin metal and I was always afraid of bending the metal lip. Not a problem with the RH10 or RH910. The USB connection on the NH900 was a fragile piece of hanging plastic, I prefer the sliding door of the RH10.

The AA attachment on the NH900 always looked like an afterthought, it didn't even fit the side of the NH900 and looked like it could easily break. I think the AA attachment on the RH10/RH910 have a much better fit and less prone to breaking off, not that either could withstand a major blow.

While we are comparing, I have found the battery life, with AA attachment, to be better with the RH10/RH910. I record most live concerts in PCM and really have noticed an improvement with the RH10.

While, I miss the line out, digital amp and the ability to record MDLP on the NH900...the OLED, battery life, MP3 playback and better construction of the RH10 are more than worthy as a replacement.

My opinion and experience only, your mileage may vary...

Besides the display, what is the difference between the MZ-RH10 and the Mz-RH910? It makes me nervous not to see a clear mention of the capability to record in linear PCM.....Are the any hidden tricks (Sony....). In contrast, the sony MZ-M10 advertises that feature right on the case itself...

I do nature recording in less than ideal settings and the display seems irreleant. I am more concern with the sturdiness of the unit (specially the mic input) and the recording time with the extra battery pack.

Any advice will be wellcome.
